The first signs of skin aging appear when you turn 25 years old. Unfortunately, this limit is usually not the earliest date, but the latest discovery of age problems. Rough laser surface rejuvenation is now a procedure from yesterday, and with good reason, because women have the opportunity without a long "revival" of skin that is very red during the procedure and, basically, traumatized.
The latest, minimally invasive and safe technology - fractional laser skin rejuvenation, renewal and acceleration of cell rhythm (growth and metabolism, as well as removal of harmful substances).
How does it work? When exposed to a focused laser beam, micro damage to the skin tissue is caused by a “column” or “cone” directed perpendicular to the skin surface. The cells surrounding the micro-damage go into a state of heat shock, which is why they begin active division in order to renew the area of skin at the site of the micro-damage. As a result, it leads to tightening of the damaged area, which gives the skin smoothing, practically erases wrinkles and a noticeable lifting effect.
Indications for fractional laser rejuvenation, advantages of this procedure
Laser rejuvenation procedures are a life-saving cure for many problems:

No traumatic effects, practically no risk (pay attention to the modest list of contraindications at the end of the article). The biggest advantage is a quick recovery. Basically, the main rehabilitation period lasts 1-2 days. This time is determined by the diameter of the micro-damage of the skin by the laser; the smaller, the faster the rehabilitation will take place (for example, fractional rejuvenation with a CO2RE laser has earned a lot of rave reviews). You will not have scars or unnatural glow of the skin, after the first procedure you will immediately see the result, and it will not be masked by swelling or strong redness of the skin.
Features of modern laser facial rejuvenation procedures
First of all, they clean the skin in the areas of planned laser exposure from pollution and cosmetics. Further, an anesthetic cream is used (note that there are not too many caring clinics that ignore this drug), which almost completely removes the discomfort during the procedure itself and goes directly to working with the laser. All you will feel is warmth and maybe subtle tingling.
When choosing a doctor, focus primarily on the degree of adequacy, responsibility, and participation. The specialist must clearly understand what you want and give you a detailed idea as much as possible and what is needed for it. Together you choose the optimal scheme of procedures, you choose the optimal way and depth of exposure. Be sure to listen to all the advice on caring for yourself during rehabilitation, find out what other procedures (fillers, injections, massage course or masks) you can perform for the best effect, and for which - now is not the time.
The duration of the procedure, as well as the number of required procedures in one course, depends on the task / problem with which you are applying to the aesthetic medicine center or clinic. On average, the treatment of facial skin and décolleté takes about an hour, the procedure can be individual or require 1-2 repetitions with an interval of 2-6 months.

One of the important recommendations of experts in this period is the use of creams with a high protection factor against harmful ultraviolet radiation. According to various estimates, the effect of fractional laser rejuvenation can last up to 2 years.Contraindications for laser rejuvenation procedures: pregnancy and breastfeeding, worsening of neurodermatitis and psoriasis, inflammation in the area of laser treatment, acute infectious diseases, neoplasms in the treatment area, blood clotting damage and systemic connective tissue diseases, oncological diseases, epilepsy.
