What is non-ablative fractional rejuvenation?

Aesthetic defects and age-related skin changes can lead to severe moral discomfort. Especially when it comes to women who want to stay attractive and desirable for as long as possible.

In particular, we are talking about non-ablative fractional rejuvenation - a non-surgical correction technique that involves exposing tissue with the help of a laser.

Fractional Non-Ablative Facial Skin Rejuvenation Procedure

Steps in the non-ablative rejuvenation procedure

The technique is based on the conversion of light energy into heat. Penetrating under the skin, the laser beam heats the tissues to 45-86 ° C, causing partial evaporation of the liquid in a volume which stimulates the natural metabolic and biochemical reactions in the cellular and extracellular matrix of the skin. In addition, in the treatment areas, the process of neocollagenesis is initiated - the formation of new collagen fibers, which are responsible for the elasticity and firmness of the skin. In addition, the radiation is absorbed by the chromophores of the skin and, bypassing the epidermis, enters the dermis, providing an additional antibacterial effect.

The non-ablative laser rejuvenation procedure is absolutely painless, performed without anesthesia, does not cause pain or discomfort. In addition, it is often used as the main method to correct age-related changes in particularly sensitive areas of the skin - on the neck, around the eyes, etc. To achieve a visible effect, 3-4 sessions are enough with intervals of 2-3 days. In the period between procedures, in order to consolidate the positive results, you should adhere to the recommendations made by the specialist.
