Fractional rejuvenation

Every year science presents more and more innovative developments to preserve youth.Fractional rejuvenation deserves special attention.This is a modern method of improving skin structure, thanks to which you can eliminate wrinkles and refresh your appearance without the participation of a surgeon.The procedure has many positive features, including a short rehabilitation period and long-lasting results.However, those who wish to improve their appearance should be aware of the contraindications of fractional facial rejuvenation.

Information on the procedure

It is not for nothing that fractional rejuvenation is now popular.This development allows the functions to be awakened for the production of new cells.Over the years, the renewal of the upper epidermal layer of the skin slows down.There don't seem to be enough young cells to make the skin smooth and healthy.Similar reactions occur in the dermal layer beneath the epidermis.Since it is responsible for the elasticity and mobility of the skin, over time, due to cellular aging, these same characteristics of the skin are altered.

The procedure affects the tissues, stimulates the synthesis and production of new cells.The skin is firmed, wrinkles are eliminated and its tone increases.

Species

There are two types of procedure:

• laser (fractional thermolysis);
• radio frequency (RF drilling).

Fractional thermolysis

Fractional laser rejuvenation involves working with a laser.A device that emits rays treats problem areas.The rays pass through the skin, heat it and cause microscopic damage.The apparatus for the procedure does not provide continuous exposure.It damages selective fractions of the dermal layer, acting on the principle of mesh perforation.In these places old cells are destroyed.But healthy areas remain alongside the damaged ones.Tissue trauma is minimal.

The rejuvenation process starts from the areas to be treated that have been damaged.They begin to synthesize elastin and collagen fibers.Next, neighboring cells that were not touched by the laser beams are included in the work.As a result, the skin is rejuvenated and tightened in the entire area of the body on which the specialist worked.

Unlike laser resurfacing, fractional laser rejuvenation is a more gentle method.The laser has a traumatic effect on selected areas, leaving a large number of healthy cells.Thanks to this feature, the skin recovers quickly.There is no need for long-term rehabilitation, as is the case with grinding.

In turn, the cosmetologist carries out fractional thermolysis in two ways:

1. ablative;
2. non-ablative.

In the first case the ablative laser passes through the epidermis and enters only the upper dermal tissues.As a result, after the procedure, you can see the damaged areas of the body healing quickly.Since the impact is superficial, the skin is damaged more than the non-ablative method.However, a noticeable effect is observed after the first visit to the cosmetologist.

In the second case, the rays enter the epidermis and as deeply as possible into the dermis.Damage to the upper layers of the skin is minimal.All work takes place in deep layers.The effect appears gradually.But this method gives a more lasting result than the ablative method.

Important!An experienced cosmetologist will determine which method is suitable for the patient's skin.It is believed that for better rejuvenation, ablative and non-ablative treatments should be alternated.

RF drilling

Fractional radiofrequency rejuvenation is similar to laser technology.Only the device works using radio frequency electromagnetic energy.The nozzle that acts on the skin contains bipolar needle electrodes.They are lined up in rows.High frequency energy is delivered through the electrodes.In the dermis this type of energy is converted into heat.Due to thermal effects, obsolete cells are destroyed.

The device works like a sieve.Some areas remain intact.The treated areas begin to recover and actively build young tissues, which gradually replace all the old cells.

The procedure takes about an hour and is almost painless.The slight redness that appears after the cosmetic procedure disappears within an hour.Subsequent positive changes in appearance occur within a month: the skin is better hydrated, the complexion becomes healthier, fine and deep expression lines disappear.

Effect

Thanks to facial skin rejuvenation with fractional laser and radio frequency, an anti-aging result is observed.The skin is rejuvenated in several ways:

• First, the skin acquires a healthy and luminous appearance, becomes more toned and elastic thanks to the synthesis of collagen and elastin.The flaccidity disappears.
• Secondly, both fine and deep creases are smoothed out.The procedure completely eliminates crow's feet.The pores shrink.Third, the complexion of the face or the area where the procedure was performed improves.The skin acquires a pleasant pinkish color without pigment inclusions.Fourth, no scars, stretch marks, post-acne, scars or capillary network are left.

Be careful!Another pleasant effect is the correction of the contour of the face.After attending the rejuvenation course, the contour will acquire a natural and firmed shape.

Indications and contraindications

The surgery is recommended for men and women who wish to rejuvenate, but basically do not dare to lie down on the operating table.

Directions for the program include the following:

• age-related skin changes (sagging appearance, wrinkles, contour changes, thinning, etc.).
• pronounced consequences of acne;
• a network of capillaries;
• significant disturbances (for example, traces of wounds);
• pigmentation;
• increased dryness, flaking, keratinization;
• drooping of the upper part of the eyelid;
• excessive porosity;
• circles and swelling under the eyes;
• striped skin atrophy, stretch marks.

It is better not to undergo cosmetic surgery if:

• the woman is pregnant or breastfeeding;
• a person has psoriasis, allergies, herpetic rashes and other connective tissue disorders;
• the patient has an exacerbation of a chronic disease;
• cancer detected;
• There are wounds, abrasions, insect or animal bites on the skin to be treated.

Learn more.The procedure is not performed if the patient has blood clotting problems, or if he or she has a cold or has caught the flu.

Nuances

• To achieve the best effect, at least 3-5 procedures are performed.There is a 20-30 day interval between each operation.
• The duration of the process is 1 hour.
• Without anesthetic compounds, rejuvenating the body with this method is painful.Before using the laser, a special cream is applied to the surface of the skin, which reduces skin sensitivity and relieves pain.
• According to reviews, even after anesthesia a slight burning sensation is felt.
• Immediately after the procedure, you should expect redness and swelling, which lasts approximately 3-7 days.This is pretty much the only downside to the rejuvenation program.

Preparation

No special preparation is needed for rejuvenation.It is best to meet with the doctor a few days before the procedure and find out all the details of the process.

Rehabilitation

Learn more.The innovative method provides for rapid restoration of the skin.The rehabilitation period lasts 7 days.After the procedure, the patient is not detained and can safely go to his apartment.

Skin care measures after fractional rejuvenation:

1. Do not expose the treated area to water for 24 hours after the procedure.
2. An anti-inflammatory gel is applied to the tissue 3 times a day.
3. It is allowed to visit the bathhouse or swimming pool no earlier than 7 days after rejuvenation.
4. In the first week you cannot swim in the sea.
5. It is strongly recommended not to sunbathe for 30 days after visiting a beauty clinic.

Fractional rejuvenation is one of the progressive and safe programs to eliminate skin changes.It is successfully carried out on both young patients (to remove post-acne) and older patients (to rejuvenate the skin).The effect of the procedure is long-lasting.Post-acne disappears completely, the rejuvenating effect lasts about 2-3 years.
