The essence of the procedure.
Today, laser facial rejuvenation is gaining more and more popularity among women, especially those who want to get rid of the fine mesh of wrinkles around the eyes.
So what exactly is a laser resurfacing procedure? Thanks to the action of the laser, the new cells increase the production of collagen. Compared to conventional peeling, a specific surface can be treated, which is especially important when treating the skin around the eyes. It is in the treated areas where the regeneration processes take place, while in the rest of the areas the skin is not damaged.
Laser facial rejuvenation contributes to:
- Skin rejuvenation;
- the disappearance of superficial wrinkles, including in the eye area;
- facial contour.
The main advantage of the method is that skin rejuvenation occurs non-surgically without risk of blood loss.
Varieties of procedures.
Laser facial resurfacing can be divided into several main types: superficial, medium, and deep peel.
In the first case, the upper layer of the epidermis is treated. Age spots are eliminated, the relief of the skin is smoothed. It can be used in the most delicate areas: neck, décolleté, lips, eye contour. Recovery can take seven to fourteen days.
The second method helps to remove dead cells located in the lower layer of the epidermis. Gently affect problem areas. Helps to cope with even pronounced wrinkles, keloid scars and stretch marks. With this rejuvenation method, you can get rid of the superficial scars that have formed on the skin due to acne, warts, and papillomas. Promotes a complexion night, removes age spots.
The latter method is more often called a non-surgical face lift. It helps to form a kind of framework that will support the skin even more. Non-surgical intervention activates regenerative and rejuvenating processes in those areas of the skin that have been treated. To perform the procedure, a special device or a radiofrequency rejuvenation technique is used.
Both procedures are safe and minimally traumatic to the skin. Smoothes deep wrinkles, evens out the complexion. Deep peeling can also be performed using the Co 2 apparatus, however, if the specialist is not skilled enough to work with it, such a procedure can result in deep scars on the skin.

The duration of the procedure depends on the area of the treated surface. After the procedure, a specialist will advise you on how to properly care for your skin during the rehabilitation period.
