Laser facial rejuvenation

The facial rejuvenation procedure is usually used by women. This is due to the fact that it is most susceptible to the biological aging process. It is this part of the body that plays the main role in the life of women. Their desire to always look young prompts them to look for effective means to prevent natural changes in appearance. The most effective and reliable method at the moment is facial laser resurfacing. Next, we will analyze in detail what the principle of the technique is, and at the same time we will find out whether it has contraindications.

Principle of operation of laser restoration

A radical method of getting rid of age spots and wrinkles is the effect of high temperature on the skin of facial tissues. It is performed with the help of a special laser, which burns the upper layer of the epidermis with its rays. Thanks to this procedure, old cells give way to new, younger ones. Skin rejuvenation also helps to get rid of many serious dermatological diseases: from acne on the face to demodicosis.

It is important that the procedure must be performed under the supervision of a professional doctor. Only a specialist can determine the optimal level of temperature exposure for a specific skin type. Stimulation of regeneration processes in facial tissue cells should be done delicately and gradually. Despite the fact that the course of treatment is carried out at long intervals, its effect becomes noticeable almost immediately. After each visit to the beauty salon, it is necessary to use medicated creams to avoid skin irritation. After completing the entire course, it is only occasionally possible to resort to preventive procedures in order to consolidate the result.

Types of laser rejuvenation

Depending on the beautician's recommendations, various effects are used for restoration:

1. Fractional resurfacing is the most delicate technique of all. It has a direct effect on the skin. Thanks to this defect removal method, damage is minimal. All traces disappear after a few days. This is due to the fact that the heterogeneous development of facial tissue cells includes only the treatment of problem areas. Other areas of the skin may not require the use of a point laser. Anesthesia is not required. In addition, this method allows you to affect even thin tissues in the eye or neck area. Activating regenerative processes quickly helps soothe these skin areas.
2. Biorevitalization is characterized by the fact that it promotes the production of collagen protein. The latter is directly responsible for the elasticity of the connective tissue of the skin. The innovative technique also uses laser pulses to eliminate the aging layer of the skin. And to keep the new epidermis clean and fresh, a nutritional composition is applied to selected areas of the face. Its beneficial trace elements are deeply absorbed, sometimes accelerating the regeneration effect. Thus, a woman can get rid of age wrinkles in the shortest possible time without surgery.
3. Non-ablative irradiation, unlike the short pulses of the previous method, involves the use of long laser beams. A similar technique is used only as a last resort, since the entire surface of the face is treated. That is, the client must have good reasons for the doctor to recommend using this technique. For example, skin damage due to a chemical burn. In this case, radical measures are needed to prevent deep scars.
4. Laser resurfacing is good because it can be done even at home. The gentle technique involves the use of a sapphire (erbium) laser, which is particularly gentle on facial tissue. Small wrinkles and crow's feet can be eliminated with the help of the devices, as well as the contour of the face can be corrected.
5. Photorejuvenation means the complex application of all the above-mentioned methods. This procedure is recommended for women over 45. Here it is extremely important to consult an experienced beautician.

Contraindications

In accordance with the competent appointment of the course and compliance with the measure, complications appear rarely. Side effects of laser resurfacing are noticeable redness of the treated skin, characteristic itching and increased susceptibility of the skin to herpes infections. Such changes in skin texture, such as burns, scars or hyperpigmentation, are extremely rare. It is true that some skin types are extremely sensitive to the effects of the laser, and therefore complications can be permanent.

Laser rejuvenation is a rather serious human intervention in natural processes, so you should be prepared for various consequences. To avoid great stress, the following categories of citizens should refrain from laser rejuvenation operations:

• Pregnant or lactating women;
• suffer from various blood diseases (for example, thrombosis);
• Mentally unbalanced;
• cancer patients;
• Suffers from diabetes;
• Subject to pressure drop;
• Suffers from disorders of the cardiovascular system;
• Minors and elderly people;
• Allergy sufferers.

According to unofficial data, laser resurfacing causes some harm to most patients. In addition to the already mentioned complications (be it swelling, itching or herpes), the procedure is accompanied by intolerance to ultraviolet radiation, migraine attacks. Some clients have difficulty with anesthesia. Nevertheless, doctors do everything possible to initiate regeneration processes and reduce the risk of facial tissue damage. Special preparations are designed to disinfect the skin and provide all conditions for the appearance of a clean epidermal layer.

User reviews

As expected, the opinions of customers of the laser cabinet were divided into two camps. If some can brag to their friends about their renewed skin, others insist on the fallacy of their decision. Let's look at some examples of reviews:

• "For some time, wrinkles began to appear near the lips and the corners of the eyes. A friend recommended facial laser rejuvenation. Some painful sensations after the procedure were fully justified by the excellent result. After repeated lifting of the facial tissue, the wrinkles began to disappear. To strengthen the effect, I planned a third visit. Moreover, each subsequentthe procedure is a little simpler.
• "Wrinkles are completely unnecessary at my age of 46. Their appearance upset me so much that I decided on slow skin renewal. The effect, frankly, at first was scary: in the first days the face was purple, and the skin peeled off. But then the edema began to subside, and wrinkles became wrinkles. The color of the face gradually became natural. In general, I am satisfied with the result. "

• "After reading rave reviews about the resurfacing on the forum, I decided to try it myself. But she quickly regretted her decision. It's kind of horrible! After this laser, my eyes are all puffy, and the resurfacing anti-redness doesn't help at all. It's just moretightens the skin. Everything burns and itches. I am terribly worried about the final result, but I already know for sure that I will never use the services of these doctors again. It is hardly worth it. . . . "
• "All my friends have already had laser resurfacing. I also decided to experience the "sharp" sensations and signed up for laser resurfacing. The effect on any skin type seems to be minimal. It didn't hurt, my skin practically didn't itch, but to be honest, II don't see the result either. I think everything is as it was and remains. I guess it's too early for me to complain about wrinkles at 28. But now I know what it is.

It can be concluded that laser facial rejuvenation is a rather difficult way to correct the appearance. This procedure should only be used as a last resort. It is better to use alternative skin care methods if they are more gentle.
