Fractional facial rejuvenation is a safe, minimally invasive technique to restore and rejuvenate the turgor in the facial skin surface. This technology is considered as one of the most effective alternatives to surgery.
Fractional Facial Rejuvenation Procedure
Gradually, the processes of growth, division, and metabolism slow down, leading to a loss of cell activity. Fractional rejuvenation procedure is aimed at restoring cell regeneration and their natural function. This is due to laser damage to a small amount of elastin and collagen fibers, which help neutralize useless cells and activate healthy cells.
Due to the thermal effect, internal and external rejuvenation takes place, age spots, skin defects, stretch marks, scars and scars are eliminated. Fractional thermolysis is performed on local areas of the skin surface, as the laser beam used in the procedure is divided into many microbeams that form a mesh structure. Thanks to this structure, healthy skin areas are not damaged and the renewal process is faster.
The result of the use of fractionated laser can be felt after the first procedure, the skin becomes more elastic and tight, the texture improves, small vessels become invisible and the pigmentation decreases. The effect of the laser promotes the activation of the work with collagen fibers, which are considered the natural frame of the skin, and after a week, fine wrinkles are smoothed, the skin color is smoothed, and the outline of the face becomes more expressive.
The mechanism of action of laser beams, depending on the depth and the properties of penetration, is different, therefore there are such types of fractional rejuvenation:
- Ablative: characterized by the removal of superficial micro-areas of the skin, which contributes to the gradual tightening of damaged microzones;
- Non-ablative: it consists in deep penetration of fractionated rays without damaging the outer layers of the epidermis.
The benefits of fractional facial rejuvenation will be:
- to achieve a tangible effect after the first session
- short recovery period;
- is performed without the use of anesthesia;
- applies to all skin types;
- personal treatment program;
- minimal risk of further complications and damage to the skin surface
- long-lasting result.
Use of fractional facial rejuvenation is recommended in the presence of such defects in the facial skin surface:
- pigmentation and capillaries;
- age-related skin changes
- ar og ar;
- enlarged pores and acne;
- uneven skin tone and texture;
- sagging skin
- stretch marks;
- birthmarks, papillomas and warts.
There are also contraindications for fractional facial rejuvenation:
- the presence of inflammatory processes in the area being worked on;
- skin infections
- allergies
- psoriasis; epilepsy;
- pregnancy and lactation
- presence of malignant tumors in the area of laser exposure.
Using surface anesthesia minimizes the formation of discomfort during the procedure. The only thing the patient can feel is a slight tingle in the area being worked on.
The essence of this technology is characterized by the action of a lattice of fractionated rays on certain areas of the skin surface, after which the old cells are eliminated, leaving room for the formation of new ones. The direction and depth of penetration of the jet is adjusted by means of a special device that makes it possible to provide point stimulation of the epidermis and prevent the formation of injuries and burns. The duration of the procedure is due to the extent of the area being worked on. On average, the duration of the session takes from half an hour to an hour.
Fractional facial rejuvenation has a special recovery period. At the end of the procedure, redness of the skin is observed, which eventually heals within 10 days. Perhaps the formation of an ichor that dries up in the form of a crust, after which it disappears on its own. Speed and quality as well as flawlessness in the final result depends on compliance with the recommendations for skin care:
- Do not use decorative cosmetics;
- wash with boiled water
- stay out of the sun for a week;
- perform ozone treatment
- Do not use scrubs and peels until the end of the rehabilitation period, as they may damage the fragile and young skin layer.
Fractional facial rejuvenation combines well with other skin surface correction techniques. For maximum effectiveness, this procedure is recommended to be performed in combination with contour plastic and Botox injections.
