What is fractional non-ablative rejuvenation?

Aesthetic defects and age-related changes in the skin can bring serious moral discomfort. Especially when it comes to women who want to stay attractive and desirable for as long as possible. And despite the fact that scientists have failed to uncover the secret of "eternal youth", there is still progress. In particular, we are talking about fractional non-ablative rejuvenation - a non-surgical correction technique that involves exposure to tissue with a laser.

Stages of the non-ablative rejuvenation procedure

The technique is based on converting light energy into heat. Penetrating under the skin, the laser beam heats the tissues to 45-86 ° C, causing partial evaporation of the fluid in a volume that stimulates natural metabolic and biochemical reactions in the cellular and extracellular matrix of the skin. In addition, the process of neocollagenesis is started in the treatment zones - the formation of new collagen fibers, which are responsible for the elasticity and firmness of the skin. In addition, the radiation is absorbed in the skin chromophores and, bypassing the epidermis, penetrates the dermis, providing an additional antibacterial effect.

The procedure of non-ablative laser rejuvenation is absolutely painless, it is performed without anesthesia, it does not cause pain and discomfort. Moreover, it is often used as the main method for correcting age-related changes on particularly sensitive parts of the skin - on the neck, around the eyes, etc. 3-4 sessions at intervals of 2-3 days are enough to achieve a visible effect. In the period between procedures, in order to consolidate the positive results, you should follow the recommendations of experts.
