Stages of 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 up tissues to 45-86 ° C, provoking partial evaporation of liquid in a volume that stimulates natural metabolic and biochemical reactions in the cellular and extracellular matrix of the skin. In addition, in the processing zones, the process of neocollagenesis is launched - the formation of new collagen fibers, which is responsible for the elasticity and firmness of the skin. In addition, radiation is absorbed by skin chromophores and, bypassing the epidermis, penetrates into the dermis, providing an additional antibacterial effect.

The procedure of non-ablative laser rejuvenation is absolutely painless, carried out without anesthesia, does not cause pain and discomfort. Moreover, it is often used as the main method for correcting age-related changes in especially 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 voiced by the specialist.
