Fractional thermolysis

Facial rejuvenation with laser is one of the most demanded and popular procedures in the modern beauty industry. This technique has gained positive reviews and recognition from thousands of patients for being able to get a quick and pronounced rejuvenation result. We must remember that laser exposure can be different. Today we will talk about a procedure such as fractional thermolysis, a new word in the fight against skin aging and signs of aging.




Testimonies

Fractional thermolysis can be used to solve a number of problems. It should be noted that it is rarely used as a preventive measure, but its use is suitable for both mature and young skin.

First of all, direct indication of holding are wrinkles and moderate folds around the face or neck. Among other things, the procedure helps to eliminate age-related changes such as:

  • Increased pigmentation;
  • Skipping soft tissues, floating contour of the whole face or individual area (cheeks, chin, under and above the eyes).

Fractional laser is also used to treat young skin in case of its increased oiliness or dryness, peeling or enlarged pores, tendency to form bumps and to combat their consequences.

The technique is quite often prescribed by cosmetologists to patients precisely to eliminate acne and scars left after it. A review of real people who did the thermolysis indicates that after the procedure they were able to get rid of the skin defects.

Principle of technique

Fractional skin rejuvenation is characterized by a fairly simple principle of action.The laser beam used to treat the problem area creates microscopic cracks in the surface layers of the dermis. Healed over time, they stimulate the internal recovery processes, mobilizing all the forces of the body.

Large amounts of components such as elastin and collagen are produced at the site of small wounds. They are responsible for the level of elasticity, tightening of the skin, as well as the production of new, young and healthy cells.

How long does the effect last?

Fractional thermolysis can be performed as a single course or as a course, depending on the condition of your skin and how you intend to achieve the final effect. The longest, longest result you can get in case of 3-5 sessions. Expert comments indicate that in this case the positive changes may last for a period of 3 to 5 years.

How is the procedure going?

The fractional laser treats the problem areas for about 40 minutes. During the movement of the beam, the patient experiences a slight burning sensation or tingling, but he does not experience any serious pain. Before the procedure, the skin is cleaned and treated with an antiseptic composition to remove microbes from its surface. The next step is to cover the delicate surface of the skin, remove the top layer, apply microscopic cracks. Local anesthesia is used to relieve discomfort. It is recommended to follow the rules of the recovery period after the procedure.

The price of rejuvenation

Laser thermolysis is quite an expensive procedure if a course effect is used. Reviews of many patients contain information that their refusal of treatment is due to its extremely high cost. This claim is quite controversial. Please note that many cosmetic procedures give a short-term effect (up to one year). With the help of a laser, significant changes can be achieved in a very long time.

Fractional thermolysis is a gentle laser treatment used to eliminate wrinkles, ptosis and scars. Therapy can be carried out as a single dose, as well as a course, in the latter case, the effect of its use lasts for several years. The procedure is characterized by a minimal number of side effects and excellent results.
