It's a shame, it looks like I'm still young - and wrinkles, age spots and other cosmetic defects are already appearing. You can get rid of them using a fractional tapering procedure. How does it work?
You always want to look beautiful, regardless of age. But time goes by inexorably and is reflected in the appearance. Over the years, the skin becomes less elastic, wrinkles, age spots and other visible defects appear. Modern technologies allow you to prolong youth by using laser exposure in problem areas. Let's find out what fractional tapering is: what it is, how it happens, and the results of this procedure.
What is that?
cells lose their activity over time, which slows down the regeneration processes. It is necessary to return the youth not only visually, but also to help the cell to recover and continue its active work. This is the only way for the skin to look healthy, tighten and smooth.
The first fractional laser rejuvenation was performed in 2004. It is specially formulated to treat the signs of aging. After receiving the first studies and results with excellent effects, the procedure was actively used in many beauty salons. The measures are absolutely safe and effectively counteract cosmetic defects.
Advantages and execution technology
Laser rejuvenation has several advantages to illustrate why this anti-aging method is worthwhile:
- One procedure is sufficient for good results.
- No anesthesia is used.
- is not an operation;
- sure, no side effects;
- No long period of rehabilitation is required.
- the effect is similar to the botox injection technique;
- has a long duration.
This method of rejuvenation is known as fractional because it only affects problem areas exposed to small laser beams. The untouched areas, namely the cells of the epidermis, begin to work actively, to multiply and to quickly heal the areas treated with the laser. The entire rehabilitation phase does not take longer than three days, depending on the skin condition. Collagen is actively produced in cells, which in turn:
- smooths wrinkles, wrinkles;
- the skin is tightened;
- aligns the oval of the face;
- pigment spots are lightened.
The procedure causes no discomfort, is painless and redness disappears quickly. The fractional laser action is similar to the method of radiation renewal, but it is more powerful and effective. In another way one speaks of photo rejuvenation.
The principle of action is that the damaged skin is exposed to heat stroke in sufficiently high temperature ranges. The beautician uses a small device on which the elements are installed, through which laser beams pass. Since the rays are very hot, the skin is processed very quickly to avoid burns.
The result depends on the severity of the defects. The deeper the wrinkles, the more treatments are required. The healing time also depends on the person and their state of health.
The effect of a laser beam that is thinner than two hundred micrometers is completely sufficient for the skin so that a new layer of epidermis appears on the treated area. The rays resemble a thin web and are only applied to problem areas on the face, neck, legs and around the eyes. This network makes it possible not to influence the surrounding areas and activate the healing and restoration of cells.
Types of photo-rejuvenation
In the field of cosmetology, two types of fractional thermolysis are used, which differ from each other in terms of the degree of impact and main properties.
- Ablative method- thermal activity acts on the upper layers of the skin, on cells.
- Non-relational rejuvenation- laser beams only work on the deep layers of the epidermis.
Many fractionated machines nowadays use CO2 laser beams. They are more advanced and have reached a new level in recent years. Before starting the procedure, it should be clarified which laser will be used. Quality and efficiency depend on it.
To get the best effect, it is recommended to combine two types of fractional thermolysis - ablative and non-relativistic. The double punch helps improve the result and lasts for a long time. Thanks to modern equipment, beauticians develop rejuvenation programs for skin type and state of health.
When should
being rejected?
Like any other intervention in the natural function of the body, fractional facial rejuvenation also has contraindications. Ft procedures should not be carried out if:
- You are pregnant;
- have epilepsy;
- for oncology;
- severe skin inflammation with psoriasis;
- for herpes;
- if you have recently had a chemical peel on your face;
- or sunbathing;
- has vitiligo;
- chronic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, poor blood clotting.
Contraindications should not be ignored, as the existing problem can be significantly exacerbated and the situation exacerbated by exposure to heat.
What to expect
Photothermolysis is used for facelifts and skin rejuvenation. With the help of cosmetic interventions, it becomes immediately clear how the skin is tightened, wrinkles disappear within a few days and the outlines become clearer. To make the effect even better, it is recommended, depending on the first result, to carry out several procedures with a difference of one month to six months.
To improve the condition of the face, many beauticians recommend combining fractional types of CO2 laser exposure. This, in turn, allows you to maintain your youth for a long time, prolong the processes of skin regeneration and prevent premature aging.
The patient recovers quickly enough within a week. The timing also depends directly on the type chosen. On the first or second day, the skin swells noticeably, reddening occurs. After 4 to 5 days, dead cells leave the skin and the epidermis is covered with a new and healthy layer. If you properly coordinate your actions, choose a good, responsible esthetician, and find out if there are any contraindications, the photo rejuvenation procedure is only for the best.
