What is fractional non-ablative rejuvenation?

Aesthetic defects in the skin and age-related changes can cause serious emotional distress. Especially when it comes to women who want to stay attractive and desirable for as long as possible. And although scientists have not been able to unravel the mystery of "eternal youth, " there is still some progress. In particular, we are talking about fractional non-ablative rejuvenation - a method of non-surgical correction that involves exposure to tissues using a laser.

Stages of non-ablative rejuvenation procedure

The technique is based on the conversion of light energy into heat. The laser beam that penetrates under the skin heats the tissues to 45-86 ° C, causing partial evaporation of fluid in a volume that stimulates natural metabolic and biochemical reactions in the cellular and extracellular matrix of the skin. In addition, the process of neocollagenesis begins in the processing zones - the formation of new collagen fibers that are responsible for the elasticity and firmness of the skin. In addition, the radiation is absorbed by the skin's chromophores and has an additional antibacterial effect by penetrating the dermis through the epidermis.

The non-ablative laser rejuvenation procedure is completely painless, performed without anesthesia and does not cause pain and discomfort. In addition, it is often found in particularly sensitive areas of the skin - around the neck, around the eyes, etc. It is used as the main method to correct age-related changes. 3-4 sessions at 2-3 day intervals are enough to achieve a visible effect. In the period between procedures, you should follow the recommendations of the expert to combine the positive results.
