Laser facial rejuvenation is a non-surgical method that helps people who want to get rid of age-related changes in the skin. Modern cosmetology offers a variety of laser-based procedures that are an excellent alternative to plastic surgery.
What is the technique?
Laser method means the restoration of skin youth in a very short time. A special device that emits different strong rays is used for the procedure. The efficiency of the technique is very high, so a positive result is immediately visible. Laser skin rejuvenation around the eyes is a very expensive and laborious procedure.
The number of procedures and the duration of the session are chosen individually by the doctor. The standard procedure consists of 5 sessions per month. This approach can have little effect on the skin. After 1 session, the procedure has a cumulative effect, as the natural processes of collagen and elastin production in the inner layers of the skin are revived. Rejuvenation of fractional skin can improve its condition. As a result, it becomes more elastic and dense.
The cost of the procedure affects the following:
- laser quality;
- number of areas to be treated;
- price of care products applied during the session;
- reputation of beauty salon and qualities of cosmetologist.
Laser rejuvenation
Laser rejuvenation is performed only on clean skin. The procedure consists of fractional movement of the laser. On the surface of a special device there are photocells that are responsible for the penetration of the laser under the skin.
As a result of the laser, the cells are awakened by the heat of the current, and those who are unable to work die. Healthy cells replace dead cells, thereby increasing the levels of elastin and collagen in the skin.
The laser beam in the facial rejuvenation procedure is called a laser beam because it splits into very fine microscopic beams. This causes less damage to the epidermis.
A special device is driven very quickly on the skin, a delay of only a minute will cause severe burns. It can be used to treat the entire surface or individual areas of the skin.
After rejuvenating the face with a laser, it becomes noticeable:
- improved skin color;
- face plain fastened;
- bags under the eyes are gone;
- Small to medium wrinkles are less common.
A great advantage of the facial rejuvenation method is the absence of characteristic transition points between the renewed dermis on the outer layer of the skin, the absence of tubercles and puffiness. Due to this fact, the external recovery process is almost invisible.
Laser rejuvenation can also be used to reconstruct the laser and improve the results of plastic surgery. After the procedure, the face is treated with a specially formulated emollient solution.
After rejuvenating your skin with a laser, cosmetologists recommend following a number of important rules for a few days:
- Avoid exposure to the sun.
- Do not use makeup.
- Do not go to the solarium and the beach.
- Do not expose your face to strong winds, chlorinated water or salt water.
Advantages of the laser method
This method of facial rejuvenation allows you to process large areas of skin in 1 procedure, while preserving and revitalizing its regenerative reserves. As a result, rehabilitation begins quickly and a long-term increase in the positive effect is observed.
Fractional laser rejuvenation is performed with a point effect, so the epidermis is minimally damaged. Traces disappear within 3-4 days. Anesthesia is not required.
Side effects are rare. In some cases:
- short-term itching;
- temporary red spots;
- activating herpes;
- peeling and burning of the skin;
- shell.
You need 4 to 8 sessions to fully rejuvenate. How many procedures are required in your condition depends on the age and condition of the skin. A qualified cosmetologist can answer this question. There should be an interval of 2-3 weeks between procedures.
Indications and contraindications
As with any cosmetic procedure, laser rejuvenation has its pros and cons.
Helps eliminate facial rejuvenation:
- deep and fine wrinkles;
- spider veins;
- age spots;
- scar;
- acne.
In addition, laser procedures are indicated for porous skin, uneven relaxation and reduction of tissue tone. The skin will get a uniform and even tone.
There are contraindications for laser rejuvenation of the face. These should not be ignored, otherwise they can lead to serious consequences.
Pregnant and lactating women, as well as people suffering, are not allowed to hold meetings:
- severe chronic diseases;
- diabetes mellitus;
- low and high blood pressure;
- mental disorders;
- allergic diseases;
- Increased skin sensitivity.
Types of laser rejuvenation
There are two types of laser rejuvenation, which differ in the method and depth of detection: The first method of laser rejuvenation of the face is a procedure that removes microscopic areas of the skin surface. In this case, the penetration of the laser beam is carried out to a depth of 1. 5 mm, resulting in:
- skin begins to harden;
- recovery processes are active;
- The skin heals and smoothes.
A positive result is immediately visible. This method is used to lift the face, give the skin an ideal look, to eliminate skin irregularities, for example, in the treatment of acne.
The procedure is great for fixing point defects, for example:
- mimic wrinkles;
- wound;
- pigmentation and others.
The second method of laser rejuvenation is the penetration of the laser beam into the deeper layers of the skin - about 3-5 mm. In this case, the exposure to the face occurs using long laser beams. The upper layers of the epidermis are not affected, rejuvenation is carried out from the inside.
This fraction of laser skin rejuvenation helps to regenerate deep skin layers. It promotes the activation of metabolic processes and is also necessary for the formation of a more durable collagen framework. This increases the firmness and elasticity of the skin.
This procedure is very serious. It is prescribed for very deep wounds, severe rashes and chemical damage to the face. The main advantage of this method is the incomplete recovery period. This differs from the ablation in that the entire surface of the face is processed at once.
Experts recommend both types of laser facial rejuvenation at the same time to achieve the greatest effect and activate tissue regeneration processes.
4D rejuvenation
Laser 4D rejuvenation is one of the safest ways to remove and compress blemishes. This method occurs in 4 stages. The skin is exposed to a neodymium laser. The beauty salon lists facial tissues from inside and outside the cheeks. The work is carried out in different modes, strengthening each other's movement.
- The first step is to lift the inside of the cheeks, the area around the nose and lips. The device has a special device that enters the oral cavity. Curls on the lips and nose are pulled aside and visually smoothed. The laser beam affects the deeper layers, thereby stimulating the production of collagen. As a result, the structure of the deep layers is strengthened.
- In the second stage, there is a complete restoration of the skin structure, which is the smoothing of wrinkles, tone, elasticity and tightening of pores.
- The third stage helps to restore all layers of the skin: deep, medium and superficial. The biorevitalization effect is provided by the fact that the tissues receive a completely painless amount of heat.
- The fourth stage is based on cold peeling technology, during which the skin surface is polished. The beauty salon removes the stratum corneum of the epidermis. As a result, 4D facial rejuvenation results in radiant skin. This result can be obtained in 1 session. All 4 steps are performed within 1 procedure, followed by a sequence.
The technique has certain advantages. One of the most important advantages is the painlessness of the procedure. The painless laser effect does not damage the gums, teeth and oral mucosa.
Other positives include:
- efficiency;
- fast and constant result;
- small recovery period; Ability to perform the procedure
- at any time of the year.
DOT-rejuvenation update
DOT rejuvenation is a new modern cosmetology method using the latest technologies. This procedure is very effective and is performed in advanced cosmetology centers and plastic surgery clinics. This system is a versatile tool for the problems associated with skin aging due to the natural biological decay of muscle and connective tissue.
In case of laser DOT skin rejuvenation, a special laser of special wavelength is applied.
Fractional laser beam radiation occurs in the deeper layers of the skin:
- Restoration of lymph flow and blood flow;
- increased elastin and collagen production;
- expansion of connective tissue regeneration;
- increased skin turgor;
- Resorption of age spots, vascular networks and nodules.
During DOT rejuvenation, the device moves sensitively on the skin, ie you can perform the procedure of rejuvenating the eyelids, neck and décolleté. The intensity of the sensations during the session depends on the sensitivity of the skin, the level of pain and the strength of the device's sensors. To relieve the patient during rejuvenating manipulations, the use of one of the methods of local anesthesia is recommended where laser treatment is planned.
The DOT procedure gradually gives a positive result. At first, the patient can not evaluate the results, because there is swelling and redness of the skin. The optimal effect will be seen only after 14 days.
Neodymium rejuvenation method
The neodymium laser rejuvenation method is a new, very effective method. During manipulation, heat energy is transmitted to the skin by a neodymium laser, which begins to affect the collagen fibers. This causes the skin to tighten and begin the process of recovery and rejuvenation.
It is possible as a result of the procedure:
- improve skin condition;
- refresh the color and correct the contour of the face;
- Reduces and smoothes fine wrinkles, vascular formation & age spots;
- Increase skin firmness and density.
Neodymium rejuvenation method lasts at least 12 months. If peeling is done before the procedure, the effectiveness can be increased. This approach will help the laser beams to better and deeply touch the skin structure.
