Imperfections of the skin can conditionally be divided into two types. The first of these are problems caused by aging processes. This is a loss of elasticity, tissue prolapse, deep wrinkles and a decrease in the level of moisture. The second category includes defects that arise as a result of infectious diseases or mechanical damage, as well as due to hormonal imbalance. Such shortcomings include acne, facial wrinkles, keratomas, warts, stretch marks, scars, scars, etc.
Modern medicine is able to offer the best way to effectively get rid of imperfections - this is laser resurfacing of the face. This cosmetology procedure allows you to "evaporate" problem tissue along with the upper dermal layers.
Laser polishing of the face got its name because of the execution technique. The doctor, performing the procedure, gently removes the upper layers of the skin located in the problem areas. Laser radiation, acting on the skin, helps smooth out irregularities and improves recovery processes. As a result, the growth of new cells, collagen production is activated, the dermis layer is updated, and the imperfections become almost invisible.
However, laser resurfacing of the face can cause tissue swelling, which can persist for two days. During this period, it is necessary to use special ointments that reduce pain and swelling, as well as fighting infections. Young people are also recommended to apply funds aimed at the prevention of temporary pigmentation. The previous skin color will return a few days after the procedure, and the full cosmetic effect will come in two to three months.
Laser resurfacing of the face, reviews of which indicate the high efficiency of this procedure, has many advantages. Firstly, it has practically no undesirable effects. Secondly, laser resurfacing does not require anesthesia. Thirdly, this procedure is effective against fresh stretch marks as well as old ones.
Laser resurfacing of the face should be carried out in the autumn or winter season. The fact is that after this procedure for three months it is forbidden to expose the skin to prolonged exposure to sunlight. At its core, it is an aggressive external stimulus that triggers protective mechanisms of recovery in the body and in the area exposed to the laser. As a result, a new layer of the dermis is formed without scars, scars and other defects.
Laser resurfacing of stretch marks makes it possible to get rid of imperfections in just a few sessions. The formation of striae is due to excessive production during pregnancy, as well as during puberty, the hormone cortisol. Its increase leads to thinning and rupture of the fibers of the skin. If the ability to recover is quite low, then scars begin to form on the body. Another reason for stretch marks is a sudden increase in body weight. In this case, the rupture of the fibers will be caused by poor tissue elasticity. The effect on stretch marks under the skin should be deeper. A laser that can penetrate deep into the epidermis allows you to activate collagen production in problem areas and eliminate swelling. Another advantage of this method is the ability to control the depth of the apparatus. This makes laser resurfacing completely safe.
This cosmetic method has contraindications. It is not recommended for people with diseases such as psoriasis, vitiligo, scleroderma, keloid scars, and diabetes mellitus. Nursing and pregnant women should also not use this cosmetic procedure.
