In modern medicine, a huge number of hardware techniques and non-hardware procedures are now used to solve the problems of young and aged skin, but you should not confuse photo and elos rejuvenation procedures with fractional rejuvenation - fractional thermolysis.
Fractional thermolysis is a controlled, effective and safe way to rejuvenate, eliminate various cosmetic defects using a laser, suitable for both aging and young skin. During operation, a laser beam the thickness of a human hair is formed. For a flash of 1-1. 5 square centimeters, the laser "pierces" many micro wounds (laser micro-incisions) on the skin. Around each of them remain unaffected areas and the damage caused by the laser pulses gives impetus to the restoration of the skin structure on the entire treated surface.
Consider the technology itself. The "fractional" (ablative) ablative rejuvenation is in close interaction with the "traditional" rejuvenation, where the fractional ablative (ablative) rejuvenation, due to its "punctual" radiation, generates microthermic damage zones (MTZ), alternating with tissue Untreated. As a result, healing is much faster (only 1-2 days), which allows you to immediately return to your normal lifestyle.
The job of the laser is to destroy extremely small portions of old collagen and elastin and the cells stored around the affected areas "wake up" and begin to intensively rebuild the damaged area. Recycled collagen and elastin, as well as other laser-coagulated proteins in the affected area, are involved in tissue regeneration. A new functionally active skin is formed with all the properties of a young skin.
The therapeutic effect is determined by the location of the microscopic areas on the skin.
Exposure areas: face (including upper and lower eyelids, crow's feet), forehead, brow region, temporal region, cheeks, nose, nasolabial triangle, chin, neck, décolleté, hands, forearms, mammary glands, abdomen, back , thighs, gluteal region and other areas.
Fractional thermolysis allows:
- obtain a rejuvenating effect on the skin of the face, neck, décolleté, back of the hand;
- remove wrinkles in the sensitive and delicate area of the eyes ("crow's feet");
- eliminate age spots (increased pigmentation, melasma);
- significantly smooth scars, up to complete disappearance, postoperative and traumatic (after cuts and burns);
- fight skin stretch marks;
- correcting the effects of acne (post-acne);
- decreased skin tone;
- an alternative to deep chemical peels.
How is the procedure going. Before starting the treatment, the skin is cleaned with an antiseptic. The doctor sets the parameters required in each specific case for the operation of the laser.
Fractional thermolysis is carried out directly with the aid of a special attachment, which allows you to maintain the same distance from the "beginning" of the light beam to the skin.
During the session, the "flash" of the laser gives you a sensation comparable to a tingling sensation. The procedure ends with the application of a nourishing and soothing cream.
The duration of the session and the number of procedures depend on the area of the treated area and the problem to be solved.
After the procedure, the rehabilitation period is minimal. The rapid re-epithelialization process guarantees the restoration of the epidermal barrier, the reduction of erythema and immediate clinical results (tissue shrinkage due to the selective parameters of thermal radiation). The reaction of the tissues in the form of slight edema and redness of the skin persists for one or two days. Natural flaking after this procedure is eliminated with light scrubs and moisturizer.
In order for the rehabilitation period to proceed without complications and the result obtained for a long time, it is necessary to follow all the doctor's instructions for the care of delicate skin at home!
