The modern technique in cosmetology is laser facial rejuvenation, which makes it possible to effectively combat age-related changes. The device of the method is a representative of a new generation of lasers for fractionated treatment, which allows a gentle and safe influence on the epidermis.
Before beginning anti-aging restoration work, it is important to familiarize yourself with the list of indications and contraindications, as well as the nuances of the technology and the methods of exposure.
The essence of fractional technology
Laser facial rejuvenation is based on fractional technology, the essence of turgor, flexibility, general recovery and non-surgical recovery of synthesis activation.
The effect on the epidermis and the inner layers of the skin is done by the work of the laser beams that pass through the separating fractional grid. It is able to divide the beam into several, thinnest microstrips, resulting in a point effect on the condition of the tissues.
Locally controlled action does not damage adjacent skin surfaces. The microcells left behind by the laser create a stressful heat shock state for the cells.
Active division begins, synthesis is accelerated in the collagen-elastin fibers, which are responsible for the youthfulness and elasticity of the epidermis. As we age, the synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers slows down, leading to visible prolapse of tissues, the appearance of wrinkles, flaccidity, and ptosis.
Fractional technology provides immediate stimulation of all physiological processes in the deep layers of the epidermis. The micro-lesions begin to heal actively, leading to a natural decrease in the epidermal lid, providing a powerful lift combined with accelerated wound healing.
The fractionated effect contributes to the creation of a newly formed subcutaneous collagen skeleton, the accelerated synthesis of cells and substances, and the activation of physiological microprocessors. In the complex, such an effect with a laser beam passing through a fractional grid leads to natural renewal, narrowing the pores, restoring a healthy complexion, and smoothing the relief.
At what age is the procedure indicated
The laser rejuvenation procedure is effective and safe, but experts say there are relative age restrictions.
Fractional technology is not recommended until the age of 17, as skin structures continue to develop at this age, with the potential for deep skin damage. Laser rejuvenation should not be used after 60 years, during which time all the healing processes of the body slow down.
The optimal age for starting procedures is after 25-30 years, when the first signs of skin aging appear. The intensity of the course and the regularity of the sessions are calculated by the cosmetologist according to the indications, based on the individual characteristics.
Indications for the laser rejuvenation procedure
Laser facial rejuvenation is a safe fractionated technology that is a powerful stimulant for activating internal processes.
Procedures are performed according to the following indications:
- Dull complexion, hyperpigmentation.
- Age-related changes, deep wrinkles around the eyes, nasolabial wrinkles.
- Dark circles and bags under the eyes.
- Tendency to demodicosis, dilated blood vessels.
- Negative changes in the texture of the epidermis.
- Severe relief, presence of scars and scars on the skin.
- Loss of purity of lines, oval swelling of the face.
- Prone to acne, pimples and traces of acne, enlarged pores.
Beauticians recommend laser therapy to restore aging processes, deep regeneration, and skin structure.
Contraindications
Despite the general beneficial effects of the laser on the epidermis, there are a number of contraindications to be known before laser therapy sessions.
Fractional rejuvenation is not recommended:
- is prone to keloid scarring;
- during pregnancy and lactation;
- in case of exacerbation of herpes infection;
- for oncological diseases;
- presence of severe chronic diseases in the acute stage;
- dermatosis in treatment areas;
- lack of immunity;
- skin infections, focal rashes, skin diseases (psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis);
- epilepsy, autoimmune disorders.
It is not recommended to use a laser beam after chemical peeling, at least 2 weeks should elapse. Before starting the procedure, the patient needs a medical consultation to rule out contraindications that could lead to negative consequences.
Benefits
Laser fractional technology has many advantages over cosmetic procedures analogs:
- The laser beams passing through the fractional lattice act accurately without damaging adjacent areas of the epidermis.
- No scars, burns or other severe marks remain on the skin after laser exposure.
- Post-procedure rehabilitation does not take more than 3-4 days and usually goes without complications.
- laser technology is effective because a professional can treat a large area of skin in 1 session. The result is noticeable within a few days after 1 session.
- The procedure is non-invasive, safe, no risk of infection. The laser beam works on the surface without contact, but the heat radiation penetrates deep into the tissue.
Laser rejuvenation is a painless technology, patients can feel mild tingling during sessions without significant discomfort.
One of the main advantages of the method is its versatility, as the most delicate and the most vulnerable areas can be subjected to fractional treatment - the area around the eyes, the décolletage, the neck area. The method can be applied to any type of skin, regardless of color type and texture characteristics.
Grinding feature with Clear Brilliant
Laser facial rejuvenation is a hardware method performed by certified professionals in a clinic. The innovative fragile device, Clear Brilliant, belongs to a new generation of equipment.
This is a very sensitive instrument that allows you to control the intensity and depth of exposure to laser microbalances, making the device one of the safest. The directed effect of the scattered light beam penetrates to the desired depth, does not damage the adjacent areas, does not cause swelling or redness.
The principle of operation is to focus the light beam with a built-in manipulator and penetrate to a depth of up to 0. 4 mm. The beam diameter is controlled by a built-in optimization system and is equipped with an even distribution system in motion.
The laser can be used for deep or surface grinding. The wavelength can be adjusted from 1440 to 1997 Nm, depending on the exposure method selected.
Thermal microtrauma occurs to activate internal recovery processes and microcirculation in treatment areas. The laser gently acts on the cortical layer, enhancing the natural processes of cell renewal and tissue renewal.
Can be used on any phototype, including tanned or dark skin. One of the advantages of the device is the painlessness of the procedures, the short healing period, and the speed of processing large areas of the epidermis in a single procedure.
Due to its wide range of applications, the laser can be used not only for facial rejuvenation, but also in complex programs to restore the elasticity of the inner surface of the mammary glands, arms and thighs.
The principle of operation of the laser is the same as that of other incapable fractionated devices, but it is realized with maximum security. The most effective method of laser treatment with professional cosmetic methods.
Thesessions are a synthesis of laser exposure and delivery of biologically active components to eliminate age-related problems, restore skin elasticity and youthfulness.
Is it possible to remove pigmentation
Modern laser technologies in cosmetology are actively used to eliminate hyperpigmentation. Intense colored areas appear aesthetically pleasing, these may be age-related changes or unique features of skin melanin production.
The essence of the fractional removal of age spots is the local action of the lower layers of the skin, without, however, compromising the integrity of the subcutaneous layers.
The fractionated laser beam puts pressure on melanin, which is responsible for the appearance of aging spots. The number of sessions to eliminate pigmentation is determined by a beautician after assessing the condition of the skin, the characteristics of the color type, and the severity of the color of the spots.
The laser can remove:
- freckles;
- "sunspots";
- age-related hyperpigmentation;
- molasses;
- pigmented changes following trauma;
- epidermal moles.
This results in the destruction of melanin in the treated area, cell renewal by normalizing the accumulation of healthy pigment. As a result, the pigmentation gradually peels off along with the keratinized layer of the epidermis.
How the process goes
Laser facial rejuvenation is an effective complex procedure performed in a special salon or clinic.
Before starting the course, you should undergo minimal training: do not sunbathe 2 weeks before the procedure, do not wipe the area with alcoholic products, exclude chemical peels and aggressive cosmetic procedures.
We recommend that you stop taking antibiotics, sulphonamides and anticoagulants.
Normal session algorithm:
- A consultation is performed, the condition of the skin is assessed, a medical questionnaire is filled out, except for possible contraindications.
- Before laser treatment, the sites are degreased with a special non-alcoholic compound.
- Visual organs should be protected with special goggles to avoid damage to the mucous membranes of the eyes.
- With the help of the fractionated nozzle, the doctor makes 2-3 passes through the treatment zones. The laser heats the areas, the duration of the pulse, the depth of penetration of the beam is controlled by the beautician.
- After the session, a special sedative is applied to the skin as well as a regenerating mask to help the microcells heal.
A specialist may recommend the use of anesthetic ointment to relieve pain in the most sensitive areas.
Patients may experience mild tingling during the procedure.
Recovery after laser renovation
The skin should be treated carefully after laser rejuvenation as internal regenerative processes are activated. After laser therapy, the skin is most sensitive to the sun, so a protective cream with at least SPF 35 should be applied before going outdoors.
The post-procedure period includes the following activities:
- It is not recommended to visit the solarium or sunbathe for 2 weeks.
- Avoid thermal treatments, baths and saunas, as well as the pool, as the skin becomes more sensitive. It is recommended to take a hot bath instead of a hot bath for 3 days.
- Chemical peeling and deep scrubbing are strictly prohibited to prevent damage to the epidermis.
- Ensure maximum hydration, apply hyaluronate-based creams and masks.
- Instead of washing, wipe the laser-treated areas with antiseptics.
- Avoid the use of alcohol-based products in treated areas, which can cause dryness and irritation.
After laser exposure, the skin may experience a slight redness, after which it begins to peel. The bark cannot be removed, this can disrupt the structure of the epidermis. Moisturizing ointment helps to soften the skin.
The use of decorative cosmetics is allowed for 2 days after the session, but you should choose the most natural and lightest composition. Adequate care promotes rapid recovery and eliminates the development of negative side reactions. For comprehensive recovery, the beautician may recommend the intake of vitamins and washing with boiled ozonated water.
Recommended ratio
Laser facial rejuvenation is an innovative technology developed for effective yet maximally safe exposure. It is important to rule out any contraindications before initiating procedures to avoid negative consequences. At a preliminary consultation, the doctor determines the number of sessions by assessing the condition of the epidermis.
> The ratio is calculated as follows:
based on the age of- patient;
- the depth of the aesthetic problem;
- custom features;
- belonging to one or another phototype;
- laser type.
The optimal number of sessions for patients between the ages of 25 and 40 is 3-4 procedures with a 2-3 week beautician visit. After 40 years, age-related changes are more global, so a professional can prescribe 5-6 sessions at 3-4 week intervals.
Therapy can be combined with microdermabrasion sessions, surface exfoliation, mesotherapy and special facial programs.
Performance characteristics on any part of the skin and in the intimate zone
The fractionation technique can be applied to any area of the face and body:
- in the delicate area around the eye, in the nasolabial area;
- on the hands;
- neck, décolleté;
- inner thigh, upper arm.
If laser restorations are performed on the face, neck, décolleté, you should use special goggles to protect your eyes. Anesthetic creams can be used in sensitive areas to avoid painful sensations.
The laser allows the restoration of beauty and youth in the intimate area, the restoration of natural color, the elimination of flaccidity due to age-related changes, after childbirth, the removal of pigmentation, the improvement of turgor.
Intimate rejuvenation technology has its own characteristics:
- The fractionated laser regenerates the intimate area, the sensitive area is treated with an anesthetic before the procedure.
- Disinfectant should be used before and after the session.
- The bikini area does not need to be depilated before laser rejuvenation, the beam is equally effective on all surfaces.
After the session, the skin in the intimate area should be hydrated for 3 days to exclude intimacy, sports, hot baths, visits to saunas and baths. 2-3 times is recommended to improve the texture of the skin in the intimate area, to restore elasticity, the effect is noticeable 10-14 days after the first procedure.
Laser rejuvenation can be applied not only to the face but also to other areas of the body. The use of a special tool allows you to perform the sessions as safely, painlessly and efficiently as possible. The skin becomes more elastic, younger, healthier, pigmentation disappears, the purity of the lines and the smoothness of relief return.
