Cosmetic defects and age-related skin changes can lead to severe moral distress. Especially when it comes to women who want to stay attractive and desirable for as long as possible. And despite the fact that scientists have not been able to reveal the secret of "eternal youth", there is still progress. In particular, it is non-ablative fractional rejuvenation, a non-surgical correction technique that involves exposure to the tissue using a laser.
Stages of the non-ablative rejuvenation procedure
The technique is based on the conversion of light energy into heat. Penetrating under the skin, the laser beam heats the tissues to 45-86 ° C, causing the partial evaporation of the liquid in a volume that stimulates the natural metabolic and biochemical reactions in the cellular and extracellular matrix of the skin. Furthermore, in the processing areas, the process of neocollagenesis is initiated, the formation of new collagen fibers, which is responsible for the elasticity and firmness of the skin. In addition, the radiation is absorbed by the chromophores of the skin and, bypassing the epidermis, penetrates the dermis, providing an additional antibacterial effect.
The non-ablative laser rejuvenation procedure is absolutely painless, performed without anesthesia, does not cause pain and discomfort. In addition, it is often used as the main method of correcting age-related changes in particularly sensitive areas of the skin - on the neck, around the eyes, etc. To obtain a visible effect, 3-4 sessions with 2-3 day intervals are enough. In the period between procedures, in order to consolidate the positive results, it is necessary to adhere to the recommendations made by the specialist.
