Fraxel - Laser treatment and rejuvenation of facial skin

Fraxel is a recent approach that can rejuvenate facial skin using a special device.This process is performed using a laser, which is based on fractional photothermal decomposition.

This technology seriously affects the skin and damages its tissues.Therefore, the process of self-complete is initiated.This is all because cells produce almost no collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.

Photothermal decomposition

Functions of this technology

The main feature of this technology is to take care of its impact and performance.It is also worth noting that the accuracy of exposure increases significantly as the laser beam divides the laser beam into smaller rays.

Types of laser fraction photothermia

On-site photothermal decomposition is divided into two types:

  1. barbecue.The length of its wave is 2,940 nm.This type of radiation is absorbed by water, so the beam affects all levels of the skin.The main can adjust the penetration depth acting on a specific layer for maximum effect.
  2. Non-blue.The wavelength is adjustable from 1,320 to 1,540 nm.This radiation affects the deep skin structure, but not the upper layer.Therefore, stimulating the production of elastin and collagen occurs, and cell exchange is significantly improved.As a result, the skin turns white and lethargy and sagging are eliminated.

The skin recovers faster when exposed to non-partners.But after ablation, peeling and redness are possible.However, both types are very efficient.

Rare fraksel varieties

There are several varieties of Fraxel Laser, each laser has its own certain features.

Frex

It is the most common device.The length of its wave is 1,550 nm, and the penetration depth can be adjusted from 0.4 mm to 1.4 mm.It helps eliminate age-related pigmented spots, acne, sunburn, acne traces, and fights with the skin's photographic glass.

Erby Laser

This is a laser with a wavelength of 1,440 nm.Of all the presented models, it is the gentlest model, so it is used for delicate areas of the face and body.It is also recommended for people with thin and sensitive skin.

Even on the skin of the breast and eyelids, this model allows.And the recovery period after use is very little.

Restore double

The model is more advanced because it combines 2 lasers and has different wavelengths:

  • Erbiye -1,550 nm;
  • Tulium -1 927 nm.

This model is used to remove scars and scars, deep and small wrinkles, remove pigmentation and remove -Acne.

Fraxel Re Store

repair

Of all the proposed models, the most aggressive.Therefore, they are treated with the only epidermis.The device eliminates deep wrinkles on the face and neck.It also deals with scars and scars.

The benefits or harm of lasers

Advanced technology allows you to evenly affect the necessary areas of your skin.There is no scarring thanks to the support exposure and small diameter of the treatment area (70-150 mn).Regeneration occurs in the shortest time and rarely takes more than one day.

The skin's barrier function is not affected by radiation, so infection is completely ruled out.Lasers do not affect internal organs, but only act on the skin.

Therefore, we can say that the benefits of laser effects significantly outweigh the harm.

Indications

The laser is very wide.The testimony of the Fraxel program is:

  • age-related pigments;
  • acne;
  • Photos of skin colleagues;
  • sunburn;
  • traces of acne;
  • Small wrinkles;
  • scars and scars;
  • Skin pigmentation;
  • Postal-acne;
  • stretch marks;
  • Sagging, skin withering, and tone reduction;
  • Wide pores.

This device not only rejuvenates the skin, but also eliminates many aesthetic issues.

Contraindications

However, the behavior of procedural in many contraindications is strictly prohibited:

  • cancerous tumors (benign and malignant tumors);
  • Hormonal diseases;
  • Acute form of infectious diseases;
  • Inflammation in the manipulation area;
  • skin disease;
  • pathology of blood vessels and heart;
  • epilepsy;
  • Various bleeding trends;
  • autoimmune diseases;
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding;
  • Blood clotting problems.

Also, do not perform this procedure during menstrual discharge, although this is more recommended than contraindications.

How is the process?

Before the operation begins, the owner can visually evaluate the patient's skin condition and determine the exposure method and the depth of laser ray penetration.It also determines how many sessions may be needed to eliminate specific issues.

Laser is widely used

The process itself is carried out in several stages:

  1. Use special ingredients, clean and degreas.
  2. Use lidocaine ointment for lidocaine to apply to the area to be treated.Wait 40 minutes.This will prevent soreness.
  3. The ointment hits and the skin itself is lubricated with lubricant.This allows the device to slide easily into the skin surface.
  4. Then use the device itself to work.Initially, face with small nozzles (sequence: forehead, cheeks, chin).After the larger nozzle, the neck and/or body are treated.
  5. The area of the eyelid is finally treated with a narrow nozzle.
  6. After the laser is finished, remove the lubricant from the skin.

General recommendations before the procedure

Before the procedure, it is important to consult your doctor and make sure there are no contraindications for this type of exposure.A few days later, it is recommended to start taking anti-water medications to eliminate inflammation.

Initial consultation with the overall chemist who will perform the procedure will not be redundant.He may make other suggestions.

Consequences and possible complications

Normal consequences of this procedure include:

  • itching and burning (insignificant);
  • Redness in the skin (passed within 5-7 days);
  • edema;
  • dry;
  • Discomfort;
  • Slight pain.

However, despite the softer effects of Fraxel, in rare cases, complications are still possible.These include:

  • Decreased pigmentation after inflammation;
  • Significant edema;
  • erosion;
  • Acne is aggravated;
  • Increase skin sensitivity;
  • Subcutaneous bleeding;
  • There will be no obvious redness for a long time (more than 7 days after the operation).

Advantages of laser Fraxel

Before and after recovery program

The main advantages of this laser exposure include:

  • Possibility of exposure to different areas of the skin (even in the breast and eyelid areas).
  • The possibility of point-to-skin may affect only those areas the laser should handle.
  • The ability to renew the skin at the cellular level and activate the body's internal resources.

Expected results

After several Fraxel classes, the skin should become healthier, narrowing pores, wrinkles and pigmentation are completely eliminated.In the case of scars and scars, their aesthetic species get better (the trivial completely disappears).The relief of the skin is aligned, becoming elastic and toned.

Processed skin care

To avoid complications and to "help" the skin as much as possible after surgery, it is necessary:

  • Lift your head and go to sleep.This will help reduce swelling.
  • It is recommended to eliminate alcohol and nicotine use (or at least reduce the amount).
  • Avoid exposure to ultraviolet radiation.Including protection against sunlight, use sunscreen for 3 months after surgery.
  • Do not use scrubs and aggressive cosmetics.
  • If the appearance is, do not tear off the shell and peel it.

How often can you execute the program

The duration of the program itself is usually no more than 20 minutes.But the next session can be held in less than 5 weeks.The treatment process for each patient is chosen individually, and on average, it has 4-6 courses.

The laser effect has a cumulative effect, so the results can last up to 15 years.

Comparison of Fraxel therapy with other revival methods

In terms of effect, similar to Fraxel:

The laser effect has a cumulative effect
  • terminal.Although it is an analog, it is more effective as an additional procedure for Frazier.
  • Nano clothing.Although this is a milder procedure, it is not that effective and still has less effect.
  • Mediator therapy.Moreover, this aggressive procedure is inexpensive but not effective.
  • point.Combined with the influence of radio waves and lasers.There are more contraindications to this procedure.

Fraxel analogue is also Fraxel.However, for him, each patient must determine it himself, because the exposure method is similar.Although Fraxel has expanded its functionality.

Advantageous combination

The maximum effect of this program can be achieved by combining it with others.For example, it is recommended to use slurry or hot water channels with Fraxel.This will help achieve the desired results quickly and keep the results effective for longer.
