Laser facial rejuvenation

The facial rejuvenation procedure, as a rule, is used by female representatives. This is due to the fact that it is more susceptible to the biological aging process. It is this part of the body that plays a leading role in women's lives. Their desire to look forever young pushes them to search for effective means to counteract natural changes in appearance. The most effective and reliable method at the moment is laser facial rejuvenation. Next, we will analyze in detail what the principle of the technique is, and at the same time find out if it has contraindications.

The principle of operation of laser resurfacing.

The radical method of getting rid of age spots and wrinkles is the effect of high temperatures on the skin of facial tissues. This is carried out by means of a special laser, which burns the upper layer of the epidermis with its rays. Thanks to this procedure, aged cells give way to new and younger ones. Skin renewal also helps to eliminate many serious dermatological diseases: from acne on the face to demodicosis.

An important point is that the procedure should certainly be performed under the supervision of a professional doctor. Only a specialist can determine the optimal level of temperature exposure for a particular skin type. The stimulation of regeneration processes in the cells of facial tissues should be carried out delicately and gradually. Despite the fact that the course of treatment is carried out at long intervals, its effect is noticeable almost immediately. After each visit to the beauty salon, it is necessary to use healing creams so that skin irritations do not occur. After completing the entire course, in the future it is only occasionally possible to resort to preventive procedures to consolidate the result.

Types of laser resurfacing

Depending on the recommendations of the cosmetologist, various effects are used for rejuvenation:

1. Fractional rejuvenation is the most delicate technique of all. It has a direct effect on the skin. Due to this method of eliminating deficiencies, the damage is minimal. All traces disappear after a few days. This is due to the fact that the heterogeneous development of facial tissue cells implies the treatment of exclusively problem areas. In other areas, the skin may not need to use a point laser. Anesthesia is not required. Also, this method allows you to influence even thin tissues in the eye or neck area. The activation of regenerative processes quickly helps to calm these areas of the skin.
2. Biorevitalization is characterized by the fact that it promotes the production of collagen protein. The latter is directly responsible for the elasticity of the connective tissues of the skin. The innovative technique also uses laser pulses to remove the aging layer of the skin. And so that the young epidermis is clean and fresh, a nourishing composition is applied to selected areas of the face. Its beneficial microelements penetrate deep, sometimes accelerating the rejuvenating effect. Therefore, without surgery, a woman can get rid of age-related wrinkles in the shortest possible time.
3. Non-ablative irradiation, unlike the short pulses of the previous method, involves the use of long laser beams. A similar technique is used only as a last resort, since the entire surface of the face is subject to treatment. That is, the client must have serious reasons for the doctor to recommend using this technique. For example, skin damage due to a chemical burn. In this case, drastic measures are required to remove deep scars.
4. Laser resurfacing is good because it can be done even at home. A gentle technique consists of the use of a sapphire (erbium) laser, which acts on the facial tissues with extreme delicacy. With the help of devices, you can remove minor wrinkles, crow's feet, and also correct the contour of the face.
5. Photorejuvenation means the complex application of all the above methods. This procedure is recommended for those women whose age has exceeded 45 years. Here it is extremely important to consult an experienced cosmetologist.

Contraindications

Subject to the competent appointment of the course and compliance with the measure, complications rarely appear. Side effects of laser resurfacing include noticeable redness of the treated skin, the appearance of characteristic itching, and increased susceptibility of the skin to herpes infections. Such changes in skin texture as burns, scars, or hyperpigmentation are extremely rare. It is true that some skin types are extremely sensitive to laser exposure and therefore complications can be permanent.

Laser resurfacing is a rather serious human intervention in natural processes, so you need to be prepared for various consequences. In order to avoid great stress, the following categories of citizens should refrain from laser resurfacing surgery:

• Pregnant or lactating women;
• Suffering from various blood diseases (for example, thrombosis);
• Mentally unbalanced;
• cancer patients;
• Suffer from diabetes;
• Subject to pressure drops;
• Suffer from disorders of the cardiovascular system;
• Minors and elderly;
• allergic.

According to unofficial data, laser resurfacing causes some harm to the vast majority of patients. In addition to the already mentioned complications (be it swelling, itching or herpes), the procedure is accompanied by intolerance to ultraviolet rays, migraine flare-ups. Some clients have difficulty with anesthesia. However, doctors are doing everything possible to start the regeneration processes and minimize the risk of damage to facial tissues. Special preparations are designed to disinfect the skin and provide all conditions for the appearance of a clean layer of the epidermis.

Customer Reviews

Unsurprisingly, customer reviews of the laser cabinet fell into two camps. If some can boast to their friends of their renewed skin, others insist on the fallacy of their decision. Here are some examples of reviews:

• "For a while now, wrinkles began to appear near the lips and the corners of the eyes. A friend recommended laser rejuvenation to me. Some painful sensations after the procedure were fully justified by the excellent result. After lifting again facial tissues, wrinkles began to disappear. To consolidate the effect, I plan a third visit. In addition, each subsequent procedure is somewhat easier.
• "At my age of 46, wrinkles are completely unnecessary. Their appearance bothered me so much that I decided on a non-ablative skin resurfacing. The effect was downright scary at first: the first few days the face was purple and the skin was peeling . But then the swelling began to go down and the wrinkles turned into wrinkles. The complexion gradually became natural. In general, I am satisfied with the result. "

• "After reading glowing comments about rejuvenation on the forum, I decided to try it myself. But he quickly regretted his decision. This is some kind of horror! After this laser, all my eyes swelled up, and the regenerating agent does not help at all with the redness. It just tightens the skin even more. Everything bakes and itches. I am terribly worried about the end result, but I already know for a fact that I will never use these doctors again. Not worth it. . . "
• "All my friends have already gone for laser resurfacing. I also decided to experience the 'acute' sensations and signed up for laser resurfacing. There seems to be minimal impact on any skin type. Didn't hurt, hardly any itching on my skin , but, honestly, I don't see the result either. In my opinion, everything is as it was and remains. It's probably too early to complain about wrinkles at 28. But now I know what it is.

It can be concluded that laser facial rejuvenation is a rather difficult way to correct appearance. This procedure should only be used as a last resort. It is better to use alternative skin treatments if they are milder.
