With age, it is possible that ptosis, or tissue drooping, may develop. This process is associated with a lack of collagen. One of the most effective procedures for restoring youthful skin is laser rejuvenation. In the early stages of skin aging, laser exposure can prevent tissue sagging, restore the skin to a healthy appearance, and accelerate the synthesis of collagen and elastin.

Non-ablative laser rejuvenation

Laser non-ablative skin rejuvenation is carried out to eliminate age-related changes. This type of procedure involves converting light energy into heat energy. This effect promotes the launch of new collagen fibers and has an antiseptic effect.

With the help of the procedure, you can avoid the progression of age-related changes and increase skin tone and maintain its youth. Therapy is recommended for patients over 25 years of age to maintain skin tone. In some cases, laser facial skin rejuvenation can be prescribed to eliminate acne marks and reduce the risk of inflammation.

When is therapy recommended:

  • Pores are enlarged;
  • There are mild manifestations of hyperpigmentation;
  • The first signs of aging have become noticeable;
  • The skin has become loose in the face, neck and décolleté;
  • A healthy complexion should be restored;
  • There is acne and traces of rashes, the skin is dehydrated.

The skin is not injured during treatment. The skin is not destroyed, so no rehabilitation is required. The effect appears gradually and is cumulative. To obtain a lasting and visible result, a course of therapy from 3 to 10 procedures may be required.

After non-ablative rejuvenation, you can notice that the pores have become narrower and more invisible, the relief of the dermis has leveled out, the shade has become more uniform, the skin has become elastic, and shallow wrinkles have begun to disappear.

What are ablative and non-ablative lasers and how do they work?

A laser beam is a focused, high-energy beam of light that can be directed toward a specific area or specific skin cells. Laser beams differ both in wavelength and mode of exposure, they can also have different points of application (target structures). The process of interaction between a laser beam having specified parameters and certain skin structures is known as selective photothermolysis. Its essence is the selective thermal destruction of cells or tissues that are the target of this type of laser beam. Today, ablative and non-ablative lasers are used in cosmetology.

Ablative lasers

When the skin is exposed to an ablative laser (the procedure is called ablative laser skin resurfacing), intense but short-term laser pulses heat the water contained in the surface layers of the skin (epidermis). As a result of this, water, and with it the cells of the epidermis, evaporate. Each time the laser beam passes over the surface of the skin, it destroys a certain number of epidermal cells at a strictly controlled depth. The rejuvenating effect of the procedure is associated with the reorganization of skin cells and the intercellular matrix.

After laser resurfacing using an ablative laser, a certain recovery period is required, during which new collagen fibers are synthesized in the skin, which is accompanied by an improvement in the appearance of the skin. After the procedure, the skin looks refreshed, renewed and healthier. There are two main types of ablative lasers – carbon dioxide (CO2) and erbium (Er:YAG).

Ablative laser is best suited for smoothing out fine superficial wrinkles as well as treating dispigmentation on the face, neck and other areas of the body. This type of laser can be useful in the treatment of post-acne, to reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks. Ablative laser can be used on sensitive areas of the face such as the area around the lips or eyelids.

Non-ablative lasers

These types of lasers operate at lower levels of light energy, so they cause less damage to the skin. The main effect of laser beams is realized in the deep dermal layer of the skin, while the epidermis remains untouched. This reduces the recovery time after laser skin resurfacing and reduces the number of possible complications.

The heat generated during the interaction of a non-ablative laser with elements of the dermis causes a dosed destruction of its collagen fibers. The process of self-healing of collagen fibers is accompanied by an improvement in the internal structure of the skin and its appearance. The mechanism of the rejuvenating effect of this type of laser devices is associated with the activation of metabolic processes in the deep layers of the skin and the renewal of its cellular framework. Visible changes in the skin after a non-ablative laser resurfacing procedure are less noticeable than after treatment with an ablative laser with the removal of some epidermal cells.

Non-ablative laser is best suited for reducing the severity of age-related skin changes, the appearance of which is associated with the natural aging of cells: deep wrinkles, superficial dyspigmentation, telangiectasia. Modern laser devices for non-ablative skin rejuvenation work in such a way as to provide maximum effect with minimal risk of complications and a short recovery period.

Fraxel: youthful skin

Fraxel photothermolysis can be carried out using both types of laser - ablative and non-ablative, and the effect on the skin can be deep or superficial. The procedure allows you to destroy old damaged skin cells and at the same time stimulate the formation of new cellular elements. To achieve a pronounced anti-aging effect, it is optimal to combine the mentioned types of laser. Fraxel combines perfectly with other skin rejuvenation procedures and enhances their effect.

The essence of the procedure

Effects on the skin can be non-ablative and ablative. In the first case, the skin is not injured, the dermis warms up, which leads to the synthesis of collagen and elastin.

With ablative treatment, the integrity of the skin is compromised. The impact can be complete - laser resurfacing is carried out, or incomplete - thermolysis is carried out with a fractional laser.

The use of the ablative method involves the use of a carbon dioxide or erbium laser. The radiation affects the upper layers of the dermis to eliminate such nuances as wrinkles and scars, creases around the eyes, and hyperpigmentation. Ablative laser allows you to eliminate stretch marks and scars. After such rejuvenation, a short recovery is required.

Types of fractional skin resurfacing and technical possibilities for its implementation

To carry out fractional laser resurfacing procedures for the skin of the face and body, two professional machines are used within the walls of our clinic, which significantly expands the implementation of the capabilities of the method:

  1. The FOTONA SP Dynamis laser is a solid-state erbium laser with a wavelength of 2940 nm. Allows you to perform both superficial and deep fractional skin resurfacing (drilling) procedures.

  1. The Palomar 2940 laser is a fractional erbium laser with a penetration depth of up to 1.4 mm. The use of this laser allows for surface skin resurfacing procedures to quickly eliminate shallow wrinkles, smooth out scars and cicatrices, including acne scars, and smooth the skin surface.

Indications for non-ablative laser rejuvenation

Non-ablative laser rejuvenation of the skin around the eyes and other areas of the face involves targeting the deeper layers of the skin while maintaining skin integrity. Using the procedure, you can eliminate small pigment spots, restore the smoothness and elasticity of the skin, and eliminate sagging. Stimulating collagen synthesis leads to the fact that the number of wrinkles decreases, large creases become less noticeable, and small wrinkles are completely smoothed out.

The method is non-invasive and does not require rehabilitation or long-term recovery. The procedure does not cause pain, and the occurrence of burns and other complications is excluded.

Despite the safety of the procedure, there are some limitations to its implementation - neoplasms in the affected area, oncology, some chronic pathologies in the acute stage.

Recovery period

The complications or consequences of the procedure typical for laser peelings and resurfacing are practically not felt with non-ablative laser rejuvenation. In the first 1-2 days, slight redness and increased skin temperature are possible. Then these signs disappear, without even leaving behind peeling.

Rehabilitation after non-ablative laser rejuvenation does not require restrictions or therapeutic manipulations from the patient, however, the cosmetologist should give you recommendations to consolidate the effect obtained. Non-ablative laser rejuvenation can be safely classified as a “lunch break” procedure - immediately after its completion, the patient can return to normal activities and interact with people without being embarrassed about their appearance.

It should be understood that non-ablative laser rejuvenation is essentially a therapeutic, too soft and “gentle” procedure, so it is naive to expect an effect comparable to that of a surgical lift. The procedure is suitable for maintaining facial skin in a healthy and youthful state, but does not provide global anti-age results. For patients with obvious sagging and ptosis of the skin, dark and heavy pigmentation, loose wrinkles and folds, classic laser resurfacing or “fractional resurfacing” - procedures with an ablative effect - are more suitable.

Types of laser rejuvenation

Fractional rejuvenation is often used to specifically eliminate some of the nuances. The peculiarity of this method is that the laser affects only the areas where problems need to be eliminated, without affecting neighboring areas.

Performing laser biorevitalization helps eliminate deep creases and scars. The principle of action is that the laser destroys damaged cells, which promotes the formation of new epidermis. Biorevitalization promotes the production of your own collagen.

With non-ablative treatment, the skin is not damaged. The procedure helps fight wrinkles and rashes, scars and other nuances that appear with age.

Laser resurfacing can eliminate fine wrinkles and the effects of acne. With the help of photorejuvenation, you can restore elasticity to the skin, eliminate sagging and some signs of aging.

On the DEKA AY device

To perform rejuvenation procedures, modern and high-quality equipment from the famous DEKA brand is used. Using this platform, you can quickly and painlessly perform laser rejuvenation, which will increase skin elasticity and reduce signs of aging in a non-ablative manner.

This platform allows you to effectively and without side effects fight acne and the consequences of acne, stretch marks and hyperpigmentation. Lasers from this brand, used in cosmetology, are multifunctional devices that involve various types of radiation sources.

The operation of an effective cooling system eliminates overheating of the skin and the development of burns, the appearance of scars and other complications, the recovery period is absent or significantly reduced.

  • Nd:YAG module – for removing blood vessels;
  • Q-Switched module – for removing permanent makeup and tattoos.

Post-procedure care

The procedure does not have a recovery period after a laser rejuvenation session. Usually, the result after implementation becomes noticeable after 3-4 days - the skin color improves, it becomes more toned, wrinkles are smoothed out.

You can clarify the specifics of care with the cosmetologist who performed the manipulation. Depending on the degree of exposure, a specialist may recommend the use of masks and creams, and the use of a moisturizing lotion. You may need to use products with UV protection for a while and limit steaming procedures for a few days.

Result of laser rejuvenation

The laser rejuvenation procedure will help restore the clarity of the oval of the face, stop the sagging of tissues and restore the density and elasticity of the skin. Manipulation helps smooth out small wrinkles and make large creases less pronounced.

It is indicated if the complexion has become dull, the skin looks dehydrated, and the pores have become very noticeable. The laser allows you to eliminate scars and scars, brownish and reddish spots from acne, and restore the relief of the dermis. After exposure, the processes of collagen and elastin production are launched, which has a positive effect on the appearance of the face.
