Laser facial rejuvenation

No woman wants to get old, so she tries with all her might to prolong her youth and get rid of age-related changes. You can get rid of them with cosmetics. Of course, these cosmetics are very expensive, but beauty requires sacrifice. In addition, cosmetic products do not always help to eliminate all the ailments that the fairer sex of different ages has.

Also, a representative of the weaker sex can perform a special cosmetic operation for her, which will help her to get rid of all the shortcomings of her.

What is laser facial rejuvenation?

This is a correction that requires a careful and responsible approach.

Laser facial rejuvenation

With this procedure, the fair sex can:

  • get rid of age spots, wrinkles;

In addition, by using laser facial resurfacing, the patient can:

  • reduce the size of pores;
  • make facial skin more uniform and give it a more natural color;
  • get rid of age-related changes;
  • eliminate vascular networks;
  • get rid of age spots;

  • make the skin smoother and healthier, give it a healthy tone;
  • to rid the fairer sex of spider veins;
  • Improve the body's production of collagen, elastin, which affects the elasticity of the skin.

The procedure is performed for women over the age of 30 and under the age of 50. The laser beam has the same effect on the tissues of any woman. But whether or not it is possible to perform this effect on a particular patient, only the doctor will tell.

The laser facial skin resurfacing procedure has both positive and negative qualities.

For example, the procedure:

  • It does not leave scars or other unsightly marks. This is due to the fact that the laser beam has a point effect on the problem area. After 3-4 days, all the unpleasant symptoms will go away on their own.
  • Helps treat problems that affect most of the skin. It also makes the skin more aesthetically pleasing.
  • It does not cause painful sensations in the patient. During exposure, a representative of the weaker sex may feel a slight tingling sensation, but in this case it is not necessary to use anesthetics.
  • It helps to rejuvenate the area where the patient most often experiences severe pain. The procedure is performed on the neck, décolleté, skin around the eyes, eg. Eg in places where other cosmetic procedures cannot be performed.

In addition to the positive, this procedure also has negative qualities.

For example, this is the procedure:

  • It has a much smaller effect compared to conventional surgery. The effect usually lasts for 5 years and then the patient will have to do the procedure again.
  • It will not help to get rid of deep wrinkles.
  • It has a very high cost. If the patient knows that she cannot cope with all the deficiencies in 1 procedure, she will have to save a good sum of money for a second procedure.

Causes and indications

Facial rejuvenation is a useful procedure, but it cannot be done by all people of the fair sex.

For example, it is carried out if a woman has:

  • wrinkles. In addition, the procedure helps to remove deep and shallow wrinkles;
  • the first age-related skin changes;
  • decreased skin tone;
  • heterogeneous complexion;
  • many moles, warts;
  • many vascular patterns located on the surface of the face;
  • Dark spots.

And also the procedure helps to narrow the enlarged pores, get rid of blackheads and acne.

Types, methods and principles of laser resurfacing surgery.

Conventionally, women divide laser facial resurfacing into several main types.

Ladies can spend:

  1. Fractional ablative rejuvenation. Such an operation is very common among citizens. Helps to get rid of small flaws. Also, the specialist has a spot effect on the problem area with a laser. If a woman has many different defects, the procedure is carried out in one course. Typically, the course includes 6 to 7 procedures. Furthermore, the process of new cell formation depends on the area in which the impact took place. In some women, the integrity of the surrounding tissues is also affected during the procedure. And for some women, she doesn't suffer at all.
  2. Biorevitalization with laser. During the procedure, the doctor effectively and quickly removes deep wrinkles, old scars, but does not perform a full surgical intervention for the fair sex. At the same time, during the operation, the doctor acts with short-term impulses on the upper layers of the epidermis. Thanks to this, cells divide faster, the body's collagen production process is activated, damaged skin is restored. Newly formed fabrics look fresh, renewed, elastic, have a completely new structure. During the procedure, a specialist applies a special preparation to the surface of the skin, which, with a laser beam, quickly penetrates the deep layers of the epidermis. Then the skin is hydrated, its condition improves.
  3. Non-ablative rejuvenation. This procedure is significantly different from the effect in which the doctor uses conventional long lasers. Such an effect not only helps to eliminate age-related changes, but also removes scars, acne, and age spots. In addition, during the procedure, several deficiencies located on the surface of the face are eliminated at the same time.
  4. Laser resurfacing. This procedure is done with a sapphire or erbium laser. The rays have a gentle effect on the skin, help to give the skin a toned appearance and restore its former elasticity. The procedure helps to get rid of acne breakouts, tighten the oval of the face.
  5. Peeling. The procedure is done with a carbon dioxide or erbium laser. But when a carbon dioxide laser is used, scars can appear on the fairer sex. The erbium beam has a shallower insertion depth, but only helps to remove localized dead areas on the surface of the skin. This procedure takes 30 minutes. But you need to perform at least 3 procedures, and the interval between exposures should be at least 5 days.
  6. DOT or dermal optical thermolysis. This is a completely new procedure that helps a woman rejuvenate her skin. And also such an effect helps to get rid of localized blemishes on the skin around the eyes. In this case, the beam is embedded shallow, therefore all exposure is carried out using an erbium laser beam. It has a point effect on the problem area, making the procedure less dangerous for humans. To achieve the desired effect, just do 1 session.
  7. Fractional photorejuvenation. This is a laser procedure that helps remove old particles from the skin. This effect helps to improve elasticity, skin tone, makes it fresher and the face of the person rested. All the necessary parameters for the device are first selected by the doctor on the computer. Thanks to this, this operation is considered safe. After such a procedure, the skin becomes smoother, the surface of the face is smoothed and acquires all the properties inherent in new and renewed skin.

The first age-related changes appear precisely on the skin around the eyes. It is here that the first wrinkles, bags in the blonde sex are formed and the skin sinks. These signs make a woman age, but the lady cannot perform hardware cosmetic procedures.

Currently, it is fractional photorejuvenation that is in special demand among citizens, because this is a simple and safe correction method, after which complications almost never appear in patients.

After this procedure:

  • reduced pore size;
  • the skin becomes more uniform and acquires a natural color;
  • the fairer sex may no longer see the first signs of aging on their face;
  • the vascular network is completely removed;
  • almost no age spots visible;
  • the skin becomes smoother. Also, no additional cosmetic products are required.

Also, laser facial resurfacing is done with different lasers.
