Fractional rejuvenation involves the use of lasers. This is an extremely complex procedure that solves a wide range of skin problems that inevitably occur as the body ages. It requires high professionalism of the expert who performs it. Only an expert with medical education and completed courses on working with laser equipment has the right to conduct laser rejuvenation. By performing the procedure in a questionable clinic with an unqualified cosmetologist, you can achieve a negative effect instead of the desired rejuvenation.
Fractional laser treatment is a worthy option for those looking for ways to rejuvenate their face without surgery. Otherwise, this method is used not only on the face but also on the body. In particular, it is possible to make scars and stretch marks invisible with a laser. So, laser rejuvenation will be interesting to those who have long been interested in the problem of removing stretch marks on the body.
Various fractional laser rejuvenation
The fractional laser sends not one beam, but many microscopic beams, which allows you to have a more delicate and gentle effect on the skin.
Fractional laser rejuvenation is divided into two types:
- The first type of fractional rejuvenation is often called laser surface re-application. During such re-application of the surface, the laser removes very small parts of the upper layer of the skin, located at a certain distance from each other. This activates the regenerative processes in the skin. This procedure uses a carbon dioxide laser.
- Another type of fractional rejuvenation is the effect of the finest rays on areas of the skin that are at a strictly defined depth. At the same time, the surface of the skin is not susceptible to injury, and in the deep layers of the skin, collagen production is activated and areas of skin removed by the laser are filled with new cells.
Different clinics use different types of lasers, but the principle of the laser method of rejuvenation is the same in all cases: inflicting controlled damage to the skin, stimulating it to actively recover and regenerate.
In each case, the doctor sees which laser technique will be most appropriate. Before each procedure, the laser is adjusted individually for each patient.
Skin care after fractional skin rejuvenation
The doctor who performed the procedure will tell you how to care for your skin after laser rejuvenation. The choice of cosmetic products depends on the type of skin, its individual characteristics, as well as the tasks and scope of the performed procedure.
2-3 days after the session a crust forms on the skin which is shed within 3-4 days. At this time it is necessary to use the cream recommended by the doctor. Then it is necessary to apply a good sunscreen on the skin for 1-2 months before each outing and use a nourishing regenerating cream at night.
It is important that laser rejuvenation not only corrects existing age-related changes, but also further slows down the aging process itself, triggering the mechanism of skin cell renewal.
Who is fractional rejuvenation suitable for and with which procedures is it combined
The procedure is always performed only after prior consultation with an expert. With strong age-related changes, laser rejuvenation will be most appropriate, not laser rejuvenation. In some cases, it is impossible without plastic surgery at all: blepharoplasty, endoscopic facelift, or the introduction of a lifting thread. But here too, hardware techniques, especially laser rejuvenation, will help amplify and maintain the effect.
Plasmolifting and mesotherapy combine perfectly with laser techniques, including biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid.
The laser rejuvenation procedure is not suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women, people suffering from cancer, diabetes, severe hypertension, psoriasis and dermatosis. Herpetic rash and inflammatory processes in the affected area are also contraindications to the procedure. Laser rejuvenation is not recommended for people with keloid scars or a family history of vitiligo.
