Every year, science presents more and more innovative developments to preserve youth.Fractional resuscitation deserves special attention.This is a modern method of improving the texture of the skin, thanks to which you can get rid of wrinkles and renew your appearance without the involvement of a surgeon.The procedure has many positive features, such as a short recovery period and long-lasting results.However, those who want to improve their appearance should be aware of the contraindications of fractional facial rejuvenation.
Process information
It is no coincidence that fractional resuscitation is popular now.This development makes it possible to awaken functions to produce new cells.Over the years, renewal in the epidermal top layer of the skin slows down.Not enough young cells appear to make the skin look smooth and healthy.Similar reactions occur in the dermal layer beneath the epidermis.Since it is responsible for the elasticity and mobility of the skin, over time, due to the aging of the cells, these very characteristics of the skin are disturbed.
The process affects the tissues, stimulates the synthesis and production of new cells.The skin is tightened, wrinkles are eliminated and its tone increases.
Additional information.The procedure is performed on any part of the body.A particular demand is the rejuvenation of the face, neck and décolleté area.The innovative method easily removes stretch marks from the abdomen, thighs and buttocks.
Kind
There are two types of process:
- laser (fractional thermolysis).
- radio frequency (RF drilling).
Fractional thermolysis
Fractional laser resurfacing involves laser work.A device that emits rays treats problem areas.The rays pass through the skin, heat it and cause microscopic damage.The device for the procedure does not provide continuous exposure.It selectively injures fractions of the dermal layer, acting on the principle of perforating the plexus.Old cells are destroyed in these places.But the healthy areas remain next to the damaged areas.Tissue trauma is minimal.
The rejuvenation process starts from the damaged treatment areas.They begin to synthesize elastin and collagen fibers.Next, neighboring cells that were not touched by the laser beams are included in the work.As a result, the skin is rejuvenated and tightened throughout the area of the body that the specialist worked on.
Unlike laser resurfacing, fractional laser rejuvenation is a gentler method.The laser has a traumatic effect on selected areas, leaving a large number of healthy cells.Due to this feature, the skin recovers quickly.No long-term restoration is required, as with grinding.
In turn, the cosmetologist performs fractional thermolysis in two ways:
- subtractive;
- non subtractive.
In the first case, the ablative laser passes through the epidermis and enters only the upper skin tissues.As a result, after the procedure, you can see damaged areas of the body that heal quickly.Due to the fact that the impact is shallow, the skin is injured more than with the non-ablative method.However, a noticeable result is observed after the first visit to a cosmetologist.
In the second case, the rays enter the epidermis and as deep as possible into the dermis.Damage to the upper layers of the skin is minimal.All work is done in deep layers.The result appears gradually.But this method gives a more lasting result than with the subtractive method.
Great!An experienced cosmetologist will determine which method is suitable for the patient's skin.It is believed that ablative and non-ablative treatments should be alternated for best rejuvenation.
RF drilling
Fractional radiofrequency resurfacing is similar to laser technology.Only the device works with radio frequency electromagnetic energy.The skin-acting nozzle contains bipolar needle electrodes.They are lined up in rows.The high frequency energy is delivered through the electrodes.In the dermis, this type of energy is converted into heat.Due to thermal effects, obsolete cells are destroyed.
The device works like a sieve.Some areas remain untouched.The treatment zones begin to recover and actively build young tissue, which gradually replaces all the old cells.
The procedure takes about an hour and is almost painless.The slight redness that appears after the cosmetic procedure disappears within an hour.The next positive changes in appearance occur within a month - the skin is better hydrated, the complexion changes to a healthier one, fine and deep expression wrinkles disappear.
Effect
Thanks to the fractional laser rejuvenation of the facial skin and radio frequencies, an anti-aging effect is observed.The skin is rejuvenated in several ways:
- Firstly, the skin acquires a healthy look and shine, becomes more toned and elastic due to the composition of collagen and elastin.The flaccidity disappears.
- Second, both fine and deep wrinkles are smoothed out.The process completely eliminates crow's feet.Resources are getting tight.Thirdly, the complexion of the face or the area where the procedure was done is improved.The skin acquires a pleasant pink color without pigment inclusions.Fourth, no scars, stretch marks, post-acne, scars or capillary plexus remain.
Pay attention!Another pleasant result is the correction of the contour of the face.After attending the revitalization course, the contour will acquire a natural, tight shape.
Indications and contraindications
The procedure is recommended for men and women who want to rejuvenate, but basically do not dare to lie on the operating table.
Indications for the program include the following:
- age-related skin changes (sagging appearance, wrinkles, contour changes, thinning, etc.);
- severe effects of acne;
- a network of capillaries.
- relief disorders (for example, wound marks);
- coloration;
- increased dryness, peeling, keratinization.
- drooping of the upper part of the eyelid.
- excessive porosity;
- circles and puffiness under the eyes;
- tape-like skin atrophy, stretch marks.
It is better not to undergo a cosmetic procedure if:
- the woman is pregnant or breastfeeding.
- a person has psoriasis, allergies, herpetic rashes and other connective tissue diseases.
- the patient has an exacerbation of a chronic disease.
- cancer was detected.
- There are wounds, abrasions, insect or animal bites on the skin that are supposed to be treated.
Additional information.The procedure is not performed if the patient has problems with blood clotting, or if they have a cold or flu.
Shades
- To achieve the best result, at least 3-5 procedures are performed.There are 20-30 days between each intervention.
- The duration of the procedure is 1 hour.
- Without anesthetic compounds, revitalizing the body with this method is painful.Before using the laser, a special cream is applied to the surface of the skin, which reduces the sensitivity of the skin and relieves pain.
- According to reviews, even after anesthesia a slight burning sensation is felt.
- Immediately after the procedure, you should expect redness and swelling, which lasts about 3-7 days.This is practically the only negative in the revitalization program.
Preparation
No special preparation is required for resuscitation.It is best to meet your doctor a few days before the procedure and learn all the details of the procedure.
Restoration
Additional information.The innovative method involves rapid skin restoration.The recovery period lasts 7 days.After the procedure, the patient is not detained and can safely go to his apartment.
Skin care measures after fractional rejuvenation:
- Do not expose the treated area to water for 24 hours after the procedure.
- An anti-inflammatory gel is applied to the tissue 3 times a day.
- It is allowed to visit the bathhouse or the pool no earlier than 7 days after the rejuvenation.
- The first week you cannot swim in the sea.
- It is strongly recommended not to sunbathe for 30 days after visiting an aesthetic clinic.
Fractional rejuvenation is one of the progressive and safe programs to eliminate skin changes.It is successfully performed on both young patients (for post-acne removal) and older patients (for skin rejuvenation).The result of the procedure is long-lasting.After the acne disappears completely, the rejuvenating effect lasts about 2-3 years.
