For all those who are afraid of submitting the face of plastic surgery, a beautiful non -surgical alternative has appeared: the fractional laser rejuvenation of the skin, whose safety compared to the surgery is ten times higher.However, not everything is as rosy as those that offer to use this technique for an effective and rapid update of the epidermis, so we offer you to carefully study all the characteristics, the details of this procedure established in this article, since they are impartial and objectives!
What is the method
The grinding of the skin tissue using high temperatures created by a laser beam is called fractional laser rejuvenation.The procedure is performed using a small apparatus reminiscent of a battery, on the work surface of which there are photocells responsible for the penetration of the laser beam on the dermal layer.
The main difference between this device is the temperature of the exposure, which is higher than the usual laser apparatus for hair hair removal or the fight against acne.
The elaboration of a fractional laser is carried out very quickly, since a minute of delay can lead to a burn of the deeper layers of the skin.
The advertising of this technique states that, following the procedure, sleep, the worthy cells of the epidermis will be awakened and will begin to completely restore, since the laser beam is able to force:
- Cells experience thermal shock, following which they are activated;
- Cells that are no longer able to function normally and fall completely;
- Work cells are divided to restore the damaged skin from the laser effect of the skin area;
- To start the synthesis of collagen fibers and elastin, serving the main source of rejuvenation of the epidermis.
To reduce the thickness of the radius and leave the laser beam, which is not touched by the skin, it is divided into different microscopic rays (hamlets) that form the laser laser bar so called.
Depending on the degree of sensitivity of the patient's epidermis, a special gel anesthetic can be used, which provides the painless execution of the procedure.
Types of manipulation
The mechanism of exposure to the laser beam can be different in nature and depth of penetration in the skin tissue.The following types of fractional laser rejuvenation are distinguished:
- ABLATIVE - Laser exposure to the problematic areas of the epidermis with their subsequent healing and gradual tightening.Consequently, the skin obtains the lifting effect, evident after the first procedure;
- Updating the updating of the collagen and elastin compounds in the deep layers of the skin structure for the prolonged rejuvenation process.

Promises and reality
The light advertising of the procedure states that in 1 session you will completely free you with wrinkles, scars, roses, acne and fat seborrhea.In fact, everything is not entirely true.
- Wrinkles, however, not all disappear, since the epidermis is not responsible for the appearance of deep wrinkles that form in the dermal layer.
- The scars will not disappear into 1 session.It will take at least 3 procedures with the execution frequency 1 time every six months.
- The dermal layer heals for 2 weeks, the first of which is characterized by the complete absence of the protective layer of the epidermis, therefore it will require a constant application of special compositions and by the exclusion of being in direct sunlight.
- The procedure is truly painful and the type of surface of the skin, as well as the sensitivity threshold and the use/lack of anesthesia in this case, does not matter.
- It is forbidden to make the manipulation in the presence of abscesses on the face and painful acne.
The consequences of the methodology
Anyone who decides on this rejuvenation should know about the following possible consequences:
- Immediately after passing the session, the face will be very sick, regardless of the use of painkillers and ointments.After about 2-3 hours, the skin will begin to blush strongly, a swelling may appear, especially in the areas near the eyes, the nose and the upper eyelids;
- The Edema peak occurs the day after manipulation.There are cases where the elaborate areas of the face were like a swollen ball.In this way, the body reacts to foreign intervention and tries to recover faster.To reduce the appearance of Edema, limit the use of salt and drinking salt;
- The second day after the session may appear to be an abundant lymph discharge, which will subsequently change crusts that form on the skin, which protect the face from the penetration of infections and microbes.It is strictly forbidden to touch them, and even more to tear them, otherwise you can get a serious infection of the epidermis and stay forever with bad scars on the face!These crusts should only fall alone!
- The skin will start recovering a week later.In the same period, the swelling will go.Over the next month, your complexion for the face will be bright pink and a mandatory application of medical creams will be required with a level of UV rays at least 30.
The only procedure for the fractional laser exposure for the complete rejuvenation of the skin of the face will not be enough.The doctor, most likely, will recommend repeating the manipulation after six months or even after 3 months.Deep wrinkles and pronounced scars of this technique, unfortunately, cannot do it, so keep it in mind, deciding this procedure!
