No woman wants to grow old, so she tries her best to prolong her youth and get rid of age-related changes. You can get rid of it with cosmetics. Of course, such cosmetics are very expensive, but beauty requires sacrifice. In addition, cosmetic products do not always help eliminate all diseases experienced by women of various ages.
Also, a representative of the weaker sex can perform special cosmetic surgery for himself, which will help him get rid of all his shortcomings.
What is laser facial rejuvenation
This is a correction that requires a careful and responsible approach.
With this procedure, women can:
- get rid of age spots, wrinkles;
- fix the sagging area.
In addition, when using laser facial rejuvenation, patients can:
- reduce pore size;
- makes facial skin more uniform and gives a more natural color;
- get rid of age-related changes;
- removes vascular tissue;
- get rid of age spots;
- makes skin softer without using any cosmetics;
- makes skin smoother, healthier skin, gives a healthy color;
- to clean the fairer sex of spider veins;
- increases the production of collagen, elastin, which affects skin elasticity.
This procedure is performed for women over 30 years of age and under 50 years. The laser beam has the same effect on any female tissue. But whether or not it is possible to exert this effect on certain patients, only doctors will say.
The laser facial skin rejuvenation procedure has both positive and negative qualities.
For example, the procedure:
- Does not leave scars or other unpleasant marks. This is due to the fact that the laser beam has a spot effect on the problem area. After 3-4 days, all unpleasant symptoms will go away on their own.
- Helps deal with problems that affect most of the skin. It also makes skin more aesthetically pleasing.
- Does not cause pain sensation in patient. During exposure, representatives of the weaker sex may feel a slight tingling sensation, but in this case it is not necessary to use anesthesia.
- Helps to rejuvenate areas where patients are most commonly experiencing severe pain. This procedure is performed on the neck, surrounding area, skin around the eyes, i. e. in places where other cosmetic procedures cannot be performed.
Apart from being positive, this procedure also has negative qualities.
For example, here's the procedure:
- This has a much lower effect compared to conventional surgery. Usually the effect lasts 5 years, and then the patient has to do the procedure again.
- Will not help to get rid of deep wrinkles.
- The costs are very high. If the patient finds out that he cannot overcome all the shortcomings in 1 procedure, then he will have to save some money for the second procedure.
Causes and Indications
Facial rejuvenation is a useful procedure, but it cannot be performed by all the fairer sex.
For example, this is done if a woman has:
- wrinkles. In addition, this procedure helps to get rid of deep and non-deep wrinkles;
- first age-related changes in skin;
- decreased skin color;
- heterogeneous skin;
- many moles, warts;
- many vascular patterns localized on the surface of the face;

And also the procedure helps to narrow enlarged pores, get rid of blackheads and pimples.
Types, methods and operating principles of laser rejuvenation
Conventionally, laser facial rejuvenation is divided by women into several main types.
Women can spend:
- Fractional ablative rejuvenation. Such operations are very common among citizens. This helps to get rid of minor blemishes. In addition, specialists have a spot effect on problem areas with a laser. If a woman has many different defects, then the procedure is carried out in one course. Usually the course includes 6-7 procedures. In addition, the process of forming new cells depends on the zone where the impact is carried out. In some women, the integrity of the surrounding tissue is also compromised during the procedure. And for some women, he doesn't suffer at all.
- Laser biorevitalization. During the procedure, the doctor effectively and quickly removes deep wrinkles, old scars, but does not carry out a complete surgical intervention for the fairer sex. At the same time, during the operation, the doctor acts with short-term impulses on the upper layer of the epidermis. Thanks to this, cells divide faster, the process of collagen production by the body is activated, damaged skin is restored. The new fabric that is formed looks fresh, renewed, elastic, has a completely new structure. During the procedure, a specialist applies a special preparation to the surface of the skin, which, using a laser beam, quickly penetrates the inner layers of the epidermis. So the skin becomes moisturised, the condition improves.
- Non-ablative rejuvenation. This procedure is very different from the effect where the doctor uses a conventional long laser beam. Such an effect helps not only to get rid of age-related changes, but also to get rid of scars, acne and age spots. In addition, during the procedure, several flaws localized on the facial surface are eliminated at once.
- Laser resurfacing. This procedure is performed with a sapphire or erbium laser. The rays have a mild effect on the skin, helping to give skin a firm appearance and restore its former elasticity. This procedure helps to get rid of pimples, tightens the oval of the face.
- Peeling. The procedure is performed with a carbon dioxide or erbium laser. But when using a carbon dioxide laser, scars may appear on the fairer sex. Erbium rays have a shallower insertion depth, but only help remove dead areas localized on the surface of the skin. This procedure lasts for 30 minutes. But you need to do at least 3 procedures and the interval between exposures must be at least 5 days.
- DOT or dermal optical thermolysis. This is a new procedure that helps women rejuvenate their skin. And also such an effect helps to remove localized imperfections on the skin around the eyes. In this case, the beam is implanted at a shallow depth, therefore, all exposure is carried out using an erbium laser beam. This has a point effect on problem areas, making the procedure less dangerous for humans. 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 improve elasticity, tone the skin, make it fresher, and rest the person's face. All the necessary parameters for the device are pre-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 becomes smoother, acquiring all the inherent properties of new and renewed skin.
Age-related changes first appear right on the skin around the eyes. This is where the first wrinkles, pockets form in the fairer sex, and the skin sags. These signs make a woman older, but the woman cannot perform hardware cosmetic procedures.
At present, the rejuvenation of fractional photographs is of special demand among residents, because it is a simple and safe method of correction, after which complications almost never appear in patients.

- Erbium. It's less intense, but very accurate. Much better than carbon dioxide and lasers. After such exposure, the patient does not have age spots. Such a laser helps to remove wrinkles that are located on the skin near the eyes, and also helps to remove fine wrinkles.
- Diode. This is the most famous cosmetic laser. It warms the inner layers of the skin, activating the collagen and elastin production processes by the body.
- Fraxel. Gas lasers are used here. It has a wide spectrum of action. Such a laser rejuvenates facial cells, accelerating the regeneration process.
In addition, during the procedure, the following are used:
- Vascular laser. This helps to remove spider veins and asterisks localized on the surface of the skin. A device with such a laser first cools the skin, so that the risk of burns in women is minimized. In addition, during the procedure, the doctor affects the problem area not with one, but with several rays at once. One is the target of the other. In this case, the hemoglobin heats up, the vessels are sealed, and it disappears from the surface of the skin.
- Neodymium laser. It is a very powerful laser that penetrates deep into the skin. Such a laser helps to remove scars, scars, spider veins.
