Modern medicine now uses a large number of hardware and non-technical procedures to solve the problems of young and old skin, but you should not confuse photo and elos rejuvenation procedures with fractional rejuvenation - fractional thermolysis.
Fractional thermolysis is a controlled, effective and safe method of laser rejuvenation, removal of various cosmetic defects, suitable for both aging and young skin. During the operation, a laser beam as thick as human hair is formed. Size 1-1, 5 sq. M. The laser "pierces" many micro wounds (laser micro incisions) in the skin for a panicle of cm. There are unaffected areas around each of them, and the damage caused by the laser pulses stimulates the restoration of the skin structure on the entire treated surface.
Consider the technology itself. "Fractional" ablative (ablative) rejuvenation is closely related to "traditional", where fractional ablative (ablative) rejuvenation alternates with untreated tissue due to "point" radiation, creating microthermal damage zones (MTZ). As a result, healing is much faster (only 1-2 days), which allows you to immediately return to a normal lifestyle.
The job of the laser is to destroy extremely small pieces of old collagen and elastin, and the cells stored around the affected areas "wake up" and begin to intensively repair the damaged area. Recycled collagen and elastin, as well as other laser-coagulated proteins in the affected area, are involved in tissue repair. New, functionally active skin with all the features of youth is formed.
The therapeutic effect is determined by the location of microscopic areas on the skin.
Areas of influence: face (including upper and lower eyelids, crow's feet), forehead, eyebrows, temporal region, cheeks, nose, nasolabial triangle, chin, neck, décolleté, hands, arms, mammary glands, abdomen, back, thigh, gluteal region and other areas.
Fractional thermolysis allows:
- to achieve 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");
- removal of age spots (increased pigmentation, melasma);
- postoperative and traumatic (after cuts and burns) scars until significantly smooth, completely disappearing;
- fights stretch marks on the skin;
- to correct the effects of acne (post-acne);
- decrease in skin tone;
- is an alternative to deep chemical peels.
How the procedure goes. The skin is cleansed with an antiseptic before treatment. The doctor determines the parameters required for the operation of the laser in each case.
Fractional thermolysis is carried out with the help of a special additive that allows you to maintain the same distance from the "beginning" of the direct light beam to the skin.
The "spin" of the laser during the session gives you a sensation that can be compared to the feeling of acne. The procedure ends with the application of a nourishing, 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.
Rehabilitation time after the procedure is minimal. The rapid process of re-epithelialization ensures the restoration of the epidermal barrier, the reduction of erythema and the provision of immediate clinical results ("stretching" of tissues due to selective parameters of thermal radiation). The reaction of the tissues in the form of mild edema and redness of the skin lasts for one or two days. After this procedure, the natural peeling is removed with light scrubs and moisturizing cream.
For a smooth continuation of the rehabilitation period and long-term results, it is necessary to follow all the doctor's instructions for delicate skin care at home!
