Modern methods of hardware cosmetology allow you to look younger by 5-6 years quickly and easily, without resorting to plastic surgery. Fractional laser rejuvenation stands out among popular techniques. It helps restore skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles and remove age-related pigmentation. The method works due to light radiation of different spectrum and power.
Features of the procedure
Fractional laser skin rejuvenation is a non-surgical technology that has enabled millions of women to restore fresh, firm skin on their face, neck and cleavage. With the help of photothermolysis, the horny layers of the dermis are removed. As a result, the skin relief is leveled, fine wrinkles are smoothed out and the oval is restored. In the practice of medical cosmetologists, specialists return the charm of youth with the help of an innovative device. We select the optimal treatment set for you and ensure the rejuvenation of all areas affecting you.
The effectiveness of the technology is based on a deep effect on skin cells. Laser beams form the thinnest grid and penetrate to a certain depth. They heat specific cells of the dermis to 70-80°C, leaving adjacent areas untouched. Untreated areas are tightened to restore skin integrity and provide a lasting lifting effect.
Laser rejuvenation can be:
superficial (ablative) |
deep |
The method copes well with the first signs of skin aging. The jet affects the cells of the epidermis at a depth of no more than 1. 5 mm. |
The radiation penetrates 5 mm. Under its influence, the production of collagen and elastin is accelerated, due to which the membrane frame is updated. |
Indications for the procedure
Fractional laser resurfacing is recommended if you:
- pronounced pores;
- scars, scars, striae;
- dark spots;
- gravitational ptosis (the appearance of wrinkles, drooping of the eyelids and corners of the lips, cheeks);
- decreased elasticity and turgor of the skin;
- Hyper- or parakeratosis (excessive growth of the epidermis and appearance of a granular effect).
The course of fractional laser rejuvenation allows you to achieve impressive results:
- tighten the skin on problem areas on the face and body;
- eliminate wrinkles around the eyes;

- eliminate age spots;
- make scars and stretch marks less noticeable;
- evens out the relief of the skin;

Stimulating the formation of your own collagen fibers and elastin promotes natural rejuvenation and slows down the aging process.

To accelerate cell regeneration and eliminate the feeling of tightness and dryness, apply a healing cream to the skin every 4-5 hours for the first two days.
For additional deep hydration of cells, a biorevitalization procedure can be performed 2 weeks after photothermolysis.
Within 10 days after the session, the use of scrubs and scrubs is not allowed. This can reduce the protective properties of the skin and slow down regeneration processes.
