Fractional skin rejuvenation - fractional thermolysis

fractional laser thermolysis

In modern medicine, a large number of hardware techniques and non -hardware procedures are now used to solve the problem of young and aging skin, but you should not confuse photo rejuvenation and elos procedures with fractional rejuvenation - fractional thermolysis.

Fractional thermolysis is a controlled, effective and safe way to rejuvenate, remove various cosmetic blemishes using lasers, suitable for both aging and young skin. During surgery, a laser beam is formed as thick as a human hair. For one flash of size 1-1. 5 cm square, the laser "pierces" many micro wounds (laser micro cuts) on the skin. Around each of them, unaffected areas remain, and damage caused by laser pulses gives impetus to the restoration of skin structure throughout the treated surface.

Consider the technology itself. Fractional ablative (ablative) rejuvenation is in close interaction with "traditional", in which fractional ablative (ablative) rejuvenation, due to its "dot" radiation, generates a microthermal damage zone (MTZ), alternating with untreated tissue. As a result, healing is faster (only 1-2 days), which allows you to immediately return to your normal lifestyle.

The laser’s job is to destroy very small portions of old collagen and elastin, and the cells preserved around the affected area "wake up" and begin to intensively rebuild the damaged area. Recycled collagen and elastin, as well as other proteins clumped by the laser in the affected area, are involved in tissue regeneration. Active new skin works with all the youthful properties formed.

The therapeutic effect is determined by the location of the microscopic area on the skin.

Areas of exposure: face (including upper and lower eyelids, crow's feet), forehead, forehead area, temporal area, cheeks, nose, nasolabial triangle, chin, neck, décolleté, hands, forearms, mammary glands, abdomen, back, thighs, gluteal area and other areas.

Fractional thermolysis allows:

  • achieve a rejuvenating effect on the skin of the face, neck, décolleté, back of the hands;
  • removes wrinkles in sensitive and delicate eye areas ("crow's feet");
  • remove age spots (increased pigmentation, melasma);
  • significantly smooth, until completely gone, postoperative and traumatic scars (after cuts and burns);
  • fight stretch marks on the skin;
  • correcting the effects of acne (post-acne);
  • reduce skin tone;
  • an alternative to deep chemical peels.

How the procedure works. Before starting the treatment, the skin is cleansed with an antiseptic. The doctor sets the necessary parameters in each case specifically for laser surgery.

Fractional thermolysis is carried out directly with the help of special attachments, which allow to maintain the same distance from the "beginning" of light radiation to the skin.

During the session, the laser "flash" gives you a sensation comparable to the sensation of tingling. The procedure ends with the use of a nourishing and soothing cream.

The duration of the session and the number of procedures depend on the area of the area being treated and the problem being resolved.

After the procedure, the recovery period is minimal. The rapid process of re -epithelialization ensures restoration of the epidermal barrier, reduction of erythema and immediate clinical results (tissue "tightens" due to selected parameters of heat radiation). Tissue reactions in the form of slight edema and redness of the skin persist for one to two days. The natural exfoliation after this procedure is eliminated with a mild scrub and moisturizing cream.

In order for the recovery period to continue without complications, and the results obtained for a long time, it is necessary to follow all the instructions of the doctor to take care of delicate skin at home!
