Laser facial rejuvenation refers to non-surgical methods and helps people who want to get rid of age-related changes in the skin. Modern cosmetics offer a multitude of laser-based procedures that represent an excellent alternative to plastic surgery.
What is the technology?
The laser method means the restoration of the skin's youth in a very short time. A special device is used for the procedure, which emits beams of different strengths. The effectiveness of the technique is very high, so a positive result is immediately visible. Laser rejuvenation of the skin around the eyes is a rather expensive and tedious process.
The number of interventions and the duration of the session are individually selected by the doctor. The standard procedure consists of 5 sessions with a break each month. This approach can affect the skin sparingly. The procedure has a cumulative effect as the natural processes of collagen and elastin production in the inner layers of the skin are revived after 1 session. Fractional skin rejuvenation can improve the condition. As a result, it becomes more elastic and dense.
The costs of the procedure are influenced by:
- laser quality;
- Number of areas to be treated;
- Price for care products that are used during the session;
- the reputation of the beauty salon and the qualifications of the beautician.
Perform laser rejuvenation
Laser rejuvenation is only carried out on clean skin. The process consists in the fractional action of the laser. A special device has photocells on its surface, which are responsible for the laser penetration under the skin.
As a result of the action of the laser, the cells are awakened with the help of the flow of heat, and those that cannot function die. Healthy cells replace dead cells and thereby increase the elastin and collagen levels in the skin.
A laser beam in the process of fractional rejuvenation of the facial skin is known as a laser array because it is broken down into many very thin microscopic beams. This leads to minor damage to the epidermis.
A special device is moved very quickly over the skin. Delaying just one minute will result in severe burns. It can be used to treat the entire surface or individual areas of the skin of the face.
After facial rejuvenation with a laser, the following becomes noticeable:
- improved skin color;
- face tightened oval;
- Bags under the eyes are gone;
- small to medium wrinkles are less visible.
A big plus of this method of facial rejuvenation is that there are no characteristic transition points between the renewed dermis, no tubercles and swellings in the outer skin layer. Due to this fact, the external recovery process is almost invisible.
The laser rejuvenation method can also be used to improve the results of laser treatment and plastic surgery. After completing the procedure, the face is treated with a specially developed emollient solution.
After laser facial rejuvenation, beauticians recommend following a number of important rules for several days:
- Avoid direct sunlight.
- Do not use makeup.
- Don't 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
With this method of facial rejuvenation, you can work on large areas of skin in one operation while the regenerative resource is preserved and revitalized. 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 that the epidermis is only minimally damaged. Traces disappear within 3-4 days. No anesthesia required.
Side effects are rare. In some cases there is:
- Itching that disappears in a short time;
- temporary red spots; Activate
- herpes;
- skin peeling and burns;
- incrustation.
You will need to go through 4 to 8 sessions for complete rejuvenation. How many procedures are required in your case depends on the age and condition of the skin. A qualified beautician can answer this question. There should be a break of 2-3 weeks between the procedures.
indications and contraindications
As with any cosmetic procedure, laser rejuvenation has indications and contraindications.
Fractional facial rejuvenation helps eliminate:
- deep and fine wrinkles;
- spider veins;
- age spots;
- scar;
- acne.
Additionally, laser procedures are indicated for porous skin, uneven relief, and a decrease in tissue tone. The skin gets an even and even tone.
There are contraindications to laser facial rejuvenation. They should not be neglected, otherwise serious consequences can arise.
It is forbidden to hold sessions for pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as for those who suffer:
- severe chronic diseases;
- Diabetes mellitus;
- low and high blood pressure;
- mental disorders;
- allergic diseases;
- increased skin sensitivity.
Types of laser tapering
There are two types of laser rejuvenation, differing in the method and depth of exposure: The first method of laser facial rejuvenation is a procedure in which superficial microscopic areas of the skin are removed. In this case, the penetration of the laser beam is carried out to a depth of 1. 5 mm, which leads to the following:
- Skin begins to tighten;
- regeneration processes are activated;
- The skin is improved and smoothed.
A positive result is immediately visible. This method is used to lift the face, give the skin an ideal appearance, and eliminate skin imperfections, for example, during the treatment of acne.
The procedure is ideal for eliminating errors, e. g. B. :
- mimics wrinkles;
- scars;
- pigmentation and others.
The second method of laser rejuvenation is the penetration of the laser beam into the deeper layers of the skin - approx. 3-5 mm. In this case, the face is exposed to long laser beams. The upper layers of the epidermis are not affected, the rejuvenation occurs from the inside.
This fractional laser facial skin rejuvenation helps with the regeneration of deeper skin layers. It promotes the activation of metabolic processes and is also necessary for the formation of a more durable collagen structure. This leads to an increase in the firmness and elasticity of the skin.
This procedure is very serious. It is prescribed for very deep scars, severe rashes and chemical damage to the face. The main advantage of this method is the complete lack of a recovery period. It differs from the ablative in that the entire surface of the face is processed at once.
Experts advise doing these two types of laser facial rejuvenation at the same time for the greatest effect and to maximize activation of tissue repair processes.
4D taper
Laser 4D taper is one of the safest ways to remove and tighten flaws. This method takes place in 4 stages. The skin is exposed to a neodymium laser. The beautician processes the facial tissues one after the other from the inside and outside of the cheeks. The works are carried out in different modes, which increases the mutual effect.
- The first step is lifting from the inside of your cheeks, the area around your nose and lips. The device has a special device that is inserted into the oral cavity. The wrinkles in the area of the lips and nose are pressed out and optically smoothed. The laser beam affects the deeper layers and thus presses the collagen to be generated. As a result, the structure of the deep layers is tightened.
- In the second phase, the skin structure is completely restored, which manifests itself in the fact that wrinkles are smoothed, tone, elasticity and pores are tightened.
- The third stage helps restore all layers of the skin: deep, medium and superficial. The biorevitalization effect is brought about by the fact that the tissues receive a lot of heat, completely painless.
- The fourth stage is based on cold peeling technology, in which the surface of the skin is polished. The beautician removes the stratum corneum of the epidermis. As a result, 4D facial rejuvenation results in glowing skin. This result can be achieved in 1 session. All 4 stages are carried out one after the other without interruption within one process.
The technology 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 or oral mucosa.
Other positive results are:
- efficiency;
- quick and permanent result;
- slight recovery period;
- the possibility of performing the procedure at any time of the year.
DOT rejuvenation innovation
DOT rejuvenation is a new, modern cosmetological method that uses the latest technologies. This procedure is very effective and is performed in advanced cosmetic centers and plastic surgery clinics. This system is a versatile remedy for the problems caused by skin aging due to the natural biological breakdown of muscles and connective tissue.
With the laser DOT skin rejuvenation, a special laser with a special wavelength is used.
Fractionated laser radiation occurs in the deep layers of the skin:
- Restoration of lymph flow and blood flow;
- increased the production of elastin and collagen;
- Improvement of connective tissue regeneration;
- increased skin turgor;
- Resorption of age spots, vascular networks and nodules.
During DOT rejuvenation, the device is sensitive to the skin, which means you can go through the eyelid, neck, and décolleté rejuvenation procedure. The intensity of the sensations during the session depends on the sensitivity of the skin, the pain threshold and the strength of the device's sensors. In order to make the patient comfortable during rejuvenating manipulations, it is suggested to use one of the methods of local anesthesia in the place where it is planned to work with a laser.
The DOT process gradually delivers a positive result. The patient is initially unable to assess the consequences because the skin is swollen and reddened. The optimal effect is only visible after 14 days.
neodymium face rejuvenation method
The neodymium laser rejuvenation method is a new, very effective method. During the manipulation, a neodymium laser is used to transfer thermal energy into the skin, which begins to affect the collagen fibers. This causes them to tighten the skin covering and start the processes of recovery and rejuvenation.
Due to the procedure, the following is possible:
- improves the condition of the skin;
- updates the color and corrects the contour of the face;
- reduces, smoothes fine wrinkles, vascular formations and age spots;
- improves skin firmness and density.
The neodymium facial rejuvenation method lasts at least 12 months. The effectiveness can be increased if the peeling is carried out before the procedure. This approach helps the laser beams to touch the skin structure better and deeper.
