In the struggle for beauty, all means are good, and even more so, those that are offered by modern cosmetology. The discovery of the laser has become a great step forward in medicine: it is harmless and allows activating and accelerating the regeneration of cells without surgical intervention - it is these principles that are the basis for the effect of laser peeling on all layers of the skin, even the deepest ones, in which chemicals can not penetrate, and so more, small grains used as scrubs.
The laser helps women overcome aging, rejuvenating the skin from the inside for several years. A few procedures are enough to see the ideal skin in the mirror: without scars from acne, scars and wrinkles.
Laser face peeling: types and indications
- Laser for removing deep wrinkles and scars. There are several types of laser peeling, their difference in the length of the beam, which penetrates the skin: for example, deep wrinkles and old scars can be eliminated by laser fractional peeling, tk. it penetrates deeper than other types of laser used in cosmetology. ProFractional acts point-wise, so it is effective for scars. The skin after it is quickly restored, but already in an updated form - smooth, without pigmentation and scars. When it acts on the skin, collagen fibers, in other words, are reborn, and therefore the skin becomes much more elastic than before. Fractional peeling refers to the category of hot peeling, when the lower layers of the dermis warm up, and thanks to this cells are regenerated. Basically, from 1 to 3 procedures are required to achieve the desired result.
- Laser for removing fine wrinkles and scars. To eliminate minor defects, apply cold laser peeling. It does not penetrate deeply into the skin, does not warm the lower layers of the dermis, and therefore its effect is mainly reduced to the fact that the skin becomes dull, and the structure becomes more even.
- Laser acne peeling. Another laser peeling is noteworthy in that it helps to get rid of acne. It is better to spend it in the autumn-winter period, when the rashes are not in the stage of acute inflammation. Nevertheless, peeling against acne should be combined with therapy aimed at balancing the hormonal background, which, often, is the cause of such rashes.
- Laser peeling for the body. The laser helps to improve not only the skin of the face, but also the body. Many women have a cosmetic problem that has arisen during hormonal adjustment or with a sharp set or weight reduction. These are the so-called striae or stretch marks. They first have a pinkish-red hue, and then become whitish. In these places there is no pigment - here collagen fibers were damaged, which did not have time to transform under the changes that have occurred with the skin. Many try to eliminate them with scrubs, but this ends in failure, because the problem is deep in the dermis. Therefore, the only effective method of getting rid of stretch marks is laser peeling. If they appeared recently, then maybe a cold peeling will help, and if they are already white, then, most likely, the hot (factional) will be effective.
Can I do laser peeling at home?
Laser peeling is a harmless procedure if a professional does it. In the hands of an unknowing cosmetologist, he can only do harm, so "playing" with laser peeling at home without supervision of a specialist is a risky business.
At home, it is better to use mechanical peelings, or chemical peels, with acids. They are sold in the form of a cream with small grains, and, as a rule, have fewer side effects.
Laser peeling - contraindications
This method of skin renewal is a serious procedure, and therefore it has a number of contraindications:
- herpes in an exacerbation stage;
- inflamed skin, including purulent;
- tendency to hyperpigmentation (in this case it is possible to carry out procedures in winter and use creams with high UV protection);
- diabetes;
- epilepsy;
- benign and malignant neoplasms.
It is best to plan this procedure after a general examination of the body so as not to get an acute skin reaction in the presence of a disease that was not known.
