No woman wants to grow old, so she tries her best to prolong her youth and get rid of age changes. You can get rid of them with cosmetics. Of course, such cosmetics are very expensive, but beauty requires sacrifice. Moreover, cosmetic products do not always help to eliminate all the ailments of the fairer sex of different ages.
Also, a representative of the weaker sex can perform a special cosmetic operation that will help her get rid of all the flaws.
What is laser facial rejuvenation
This is a correction that requires a careful and responsible approach.
With this procedure, the fairer sex can:
- get rid of age spots, wrinkles;
- correct relaxed areas.
In addition, when using laser facial rejuvenation, the patient can:
- reduce pore size;
- make facial skin more even and give it a more natural color;
- get rid of age changes;
- eliminate vascular networks;
- get rid of age spots;
- make the skin softer without the use of virtually any cosmetics;
- make the skin smoother, healthier, give it a healthy shade;
- to release the fairer sex of spider veins;
- enhance the body's production of collagen, elastin, which affects the elasticity of the skin.
The procedure is performed for women older than 30 years and younger than 50 years. The laser beam has the same effect on any woman's tissues. But whether it is possible to perform this effect on a certain patient, only the doctor will say.
Laser facial skin rejuvenation procedure has both positive and negative properties.
For example, the procedure:
- It leaves no scars or other unpleasant marks. This is due to the fact that the laser beam has a point effect on the problem area. After 3-4 days, all the unpleasant symptoms will disappear on their own.
- It helps solve problems that affect most skin. It also makes the skin more aesthetically pleasing.
- It does not cause any painful sensations in the patient. During exposure, a representative of the weaker sex may feel a slight tingling sensation, but in this case it is not necessary to use anesthetics.
- It helps rejuvenate the area where the patient most often feels severe pain. The procedure is performed on the neck, décolleté, skin around the eyes, ie. in places where other cosmetic procedures cannot be performed.
In addition to the positive, this procedure also has negative features.
For example, here's the procedure:
- It has a much lower effect compared to conventional surgery. The effect usually lasts for 5 years, after which the patient will have to repeat the procedure.
- It will not help you get rid of deep wrinkles.
- It has a very high price. If the patient knows that she cannot cope with all the shortcomings in one procedure, she will have to save an orderly amount of money for the other procedure.
Causes and indications
Facial rejuvenation is a useful procedure, but it cannot be performed by the fairer sex.
For example, it is performed if a woman has:
- bore. Moreover, the procedure helps to get rid of both deep and not deep wrinkles;
- the first skin changes associated with age;
- decreased skin tone;
- heterogeneous complexion;
- many moles, warts;

Types, methods and principles of laser rejuvenation surgery
Typically, laser facial rejuvenation is divided into several main types.
Ladies can spend:
- Fractional ablative rejuvenation. Such an operation is very common among citizens. Helps eliminate small imperfections. Moreover, the specialist laser works on the problem area. If a woman has many different defects, then the procedure is performed in progress. Usually the course includes 6-7 procedures. Moreover, the process of creating new cells depends on the zone in which the impact was performed. In some women, the integrity of adjacent tissues also suffers during the procedure. And for some ladies she doesn’t suffer at all.
- Laser biorevitalization. During the procedure, the doctor effectively and quickly removes deep wrinkles, old scars, but does not perform full-fledged surgical intervention for the fairer sex. At the same time, during the operation, the doctor acts with short-term impulses on the upper layers of the epidermis. Thanks to this, the cells divide faster, the process of collagen production in the body is activated, damaged skin is restored. Formed new fabrics look fresh, renewed, elastic, have a completely new structure. During the procedure, the specialist applies a special preparation on the surface of the skin, which quickly penetrates into the deep layers of the epidermis with a laser beam. So the skin is moist, its condition improves.
- Non-ablative rejuvenation. This procedure differs significantly from the effect in which a physician uses conventional long laser beams. Such an effect not only helps to get rid of age-related changes, but also removes scars, acne and age spots. Moreover, during the procedure, several imperfections localized on the surface of the face are removed at once.
- Laser surface restoration. This procedure is performed with a sapphire or erbium laser. The rays have a mild effect on the skin, helping to give it a toned look and restore its former elasticity. The procedure helps to get rid of acne breakouts and tighten the oval part of the face.
- Peeling. The procedure is performed using carbon dioxide or an erbium laser. But when a carbon dioxide laser is used, scars can appear in the fairer sex. The erbium beam has a smaller insertion depth, but only helps to remove dead areas localized on the skin surface. This procedure takes 30 minutes. But you need to do at least 3 procedures and the interval between exposures should be at least 5 days.
- DOT or dermal optical thermolysis. This is a completely new procedure that helps a woman rejuvenate her skin. And also such an effect helps to eliminate the defects localized on the skin around the eyes. In this case, the beam is installed at a shallow depth, so all exposure is done using an erbium laser beam. It has a point effect on the problem area, so the procedure becomes less dangerous for people. To achieve the desired effect, it is enough to do only 1 session.
- Fractional photorejuvenation. This is a laser procedure that helps remove old skin particles. This effect helps to improve elasticity, skin tone, makes it fresh and a person's face rested. All the necessary parameters for the device are first selected by the doctor on the computer. Thanks to this, this operation is considered safe. After such a procedure, the skin becomes smoother, the surface of the face is smoothed, it acquires all the properties inherent in new and renewed skin.
The first age-related changes appear on the skin around the eyes. This is where the first wrinkles appear, bags in the fairer sex, and the skin relaxes. These signs an older woman, but the lady can not carry out hardware cosmetic procedures.

Moreover, during the procedure the doctor does not affect the problem area with one, but several rays at once. One is the target of the other. In this case, the hemoglobin heats up, the vessel is sealed and disappears from the surface of the skin.
