Fractional laser rejuvenation - rejuvenation without a scalpel

how to perform fractional laser facial skin rejuvenation

Fractional laser rejuvenation helps effectively rejuvenate the skin and removes aesthetic imperfections of the face and body. Factional facial rejuvenation, a worthy alternative to surgical facelift, is easily tolerated by the patient and has a very short rehabilitation period.

So, modern CO2- lasers with super pulse mode give a beam that penetrates so gently deep into the skin that the rehabilitation period after exposure to such a laser is very short and lasts about two days. Erbium, neodymium and alexandrite lasers have a slightly sharper effect.

Why you need laser rejuvenation and how it works

After twenty-five years, the first signs of skin aging appear: the appearance of wrinkles, enlarged pores, changes in skin color and texture, loss of skin freshness. Various cosmetic preparations give unstable and superficial results. In order to really preserve youth and turn the clock back, it is necessary to activate the normal functioning of skin cells, to restore the natural mechanism of their growth and renewal.

A beam of light purposefully heats and evaporates the deep layers of the epidermis. A “hole” is created at the site of exposure around which tissue is currently shrinking and cells begin to actively regenerate. The bundle also affects the collagen fibers that make up the structure of the skin and play a major role in preserving the youth of the skin. Short-term heating of collagen fibers with laser beam stimulates their renewal and growth. Given the above, the effect after the procedure increases within six months and lasts for at least two years.

advantages and disadvantages of fractional skin rejuvenation

In other words, the skin receives heat shock, which activates its regeneration, which means removing various skin damage: wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, age spots. The result is visible immediately after the procedure, because there is an instantaneous contraction of the skin, and it grows within six months due to collagen restructuring.

Fractional laser facial rejuvenation leads to the smoothing of imperfections and scars, including, after acne, smoothing wrinkles, shrinking pores, smoothing the complexion and improving the clarity of the oval shape.

For maximum and lasting results, a course of several procedures is recommended - 2-4 sessions each month.

I have to say that fractional laser is the most optimal way to remove stretch marks, combining high efficiency and gentle effect. But for these purposes, a longer course is needed.
