Laser facial rejuvenation

The face rejuvenation procedure, as a rule, is undertaken by women. This is because 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. The desire to always look young forces us to look for effective means to counteract natural changes in appearance. The most effective and reliable method at the moment is laser facial rejuvenation. 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.

The principle of operation of laser rejuvenation

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

The important thing is that the procedure should be done under the supervision of a professional doctor. Only a specialist can determine the optimal level of temperature exposure for a certain skin type. Regenerative processes in the cells of facial tissues must be stimulated subtly 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 healing creams to avoid skin irritation. After completing the entire course, in the future, only occasional preventive procedures can be taken to consolidate the result.

Types of laser resurfacing

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

1. Partial rejuvenation is the most delicate technique. It has a direct effect on the skin. Due to this method of remedying the defects, the damage is minimal. All traces disappear after a few days. This is due to the fact that the heterogeneous development of facial tissue cells involves only the treatment of problem areas. Other areas of the skin may not require the use of a spot laser. Anesthesia is not required. In addition, this method allows you to affect even thin tissues in the eye or neck area. Rapidly activated regenerative processes help soothe these skin areas.
2. Biorevitalization is characterized by the fact that it stimulates the production of collagen protein. The latter is directly responsible for the elasticity of the connective tissues of the skin. The innovative technique also uses laser pulses to remove the aging layer of skin. And in order to keep the young epidermis clean and fresh, a nutritional composition is applied to selected areas of the face. Its useful trace elements penetrate deeply, sometimes accelerating the effect of rejuvenation. Thus, without surgery, a woman can get rid of age-related wrinkles in the shortest possible time.
3. Non-ablative irradiation, in contrast to 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 why the doctor would recommend using this technique. For example, skin damage due to a chemical burn. In this case, drastic measures are needed to remove deep scars.
4. Laser resurfacing is good because it can be done even at home. A gentle technique is the use of a sapphire (erbium) laser, which affects facial tissues extremely gently. With the help of the devices, you can eliminate fine wrinkles, crow's feet, and also correct the contour of the face.
5. Photorejuvenation means the complex application of all the methods listed above. This procedure is recommended for women over 45 years of age. It is extremely important to consult with an experienced cosmetologist.

Contraindications

Competently appointing a course and following the measure, complications rarely occur. Side effects of laser rejuvenation are noticeable redness of the treated skin, characteristic itching and increased sensitivity of the skin to herpes infections. Changes in skin texture such as burns, scarring or hyperpigmentation are very rare. It is true that some types of skin are extremely sensitive to the effects of the laser, so complications can be permanent.

Laser rejuvenation is a rather serious human intervention in natural processes, so you need to prepare for various consequences. In order to avoid great stress, the following categories of citizens should refrain from laser rejuvenation surgery:

• For pregnant or lactating women;
• In case of various blood diseases (e. g. thrombosis);
• Mentally unbalanced;
• cancer patients;
• For those with diabetes;
• Pressure drop;
• Suffers from cardiovascular disorders;
• Minors and the elderly;
• Allergy sufferers.

According to unofficial data, laser rejuvenation causes some damage to the vast majority of patients. In addition to the already mentioned complications (be it swelling, itching or herpes), the procedure is accompanied by intolerance to ultraviolet rays, migraine outbreaks. Anesthesia is difficult for some clients. Nevertheless, doctors do everything to start regenerative processes and reduce the risk of facial tissue damage. Special preparations are designed to disinfect the skin and create all the conditions for the emergence of a clean epidermal layer.

User feedback

As expected, the opinions of customers of the laser cabinet were divided into two camps. While some may brag to their friends about their renewed skin, others insist that their decision is wrong. Let's look at some examples of reviews:

• "For some time now, wrinkles have started to appear near the corners of the lips and eyes. A friend recommended laser facial rejuvenation. A few painful sensations after the procedure were fully justified by the excellent result. After re-lifting the facial tissues, the wrinkles began to disappear. I am planning a third visit to enhance the effect. In addition, each subsequent procedure is slightly easier.
• "My 46-year-old wrinkles are completely unnecessary. Their appearance upset me so much that I decided on non-ablative skin rejuvenation. The effect, frankly, was frightening at first: the face was purple and the skin was peeling for the first few days. But then the swelling started to go down and the wrinkles became wrinkles. The color of the face gradually became natural. In general, I am satisfied with the result. "

• "After reading rave reviews about rejuvenation on the forum, I decided to try it myself. But she soon regretted her decision. This is some kind of horror! After this laser my eyes are all swollen and the regenerating product for redness does not help at all. It only tightens the skin even more. Everything bakes and itches. I am terribly worried about the end result, but I already know for sure that I will never use these doctors again. Hardly worth it. . . "
• "All my friends have already had laser rejuvenation. I also decided to experience the "sharp" sensations and signed up for laser resurfacing. It seems that the effect on any skin type is minimal. It didn't hurt, the skin practically does not itch, but to be honest, I don't see the result either. In my opinion, everything is as it was, and it stays. It's probably too early for me to complain about wrinkles at 28. But now I know what they are.

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 treatments if they are gentler.
