Fraxel is a procedure recently appeared to rejuvenate the skin of the face, using a special device.This procedure is performed using a laser, which acts based on fractional phototermolisis.
This technology perfectly affects the skin, damaging its fabric.Because of this, the self -tape process is launched.All due to the fact that cells begin to produce hardly collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
A characteristic of technology
The main feature of technology is the care of its impact and performance.It is also worth noting that due to the separation of the laser beam into smaller rays, the accuracy of exposure increases significantly.
Types of Laser fractional photothermiasis
Field photothermolosis is divided into 2 types:
- Ablative.The length of your wave is 2,940 nm.This type of radiation is absorbed by water, so that the beam affects all levels of the skin.The master can regulate the depth of penetration, acting in a particular layer for the maximum effect.
- Not blatant.The wavelength is adjustable from 1,320 to 1,540 nm.This type of radiation affects the deep structures of the skin, but does not affect the upper layers.Thus, stimulation of elastin and collagen production occurs and cell exchange improves significantly.Because of this, the skin is toned, its lethargy and sagging are eliminated.
Skin restoration occurs faster when exposed to non-Bativa.But after ablative, peeling and redness are possible.However, both types have high efficiency.
Laser Fraksel Varieties
There are several varieties of fraxel laser, each with certain characteristics.
Fraxel
It is the most common device.The length of your wave is 1,550 nm and the depth of penetration can be adjusted from 0.4 to 1.4 mm.It helps eliminate age -related pigment spots, acne, sunburn, acne traces and also skin -glass fights.
Erby Laser
This is a laser that has a wavelength of 1,440 nm.Of all the models presented, it is the smoother, so it is used in delicate areas of the face and body.It is also advisable to use it for people with thin and sensitive skin.
This model is allowed even in the mammary glands and the skin of the eyelids.And the recovery period after its use is minimal.
REPORTO DULO
The model is more advanced because it combines 2 lasers and has a different wavelength:
- Erbiye - 1,550 nm;
- Tulium - 1 927 nm.
This model is used to eliminate scars and scars, deep and small wrinkles, remove pigmentation and removal from post -acne.
Re par
Of all the models presented is the most aggressive.Therefore, they are treated exclusively deep layers of the epidermis.This device can eliminate deep wrinkles on the face and neck.Also deals with scars and scars.
Laser benefits or damage
Advanced technology allows you to evenly affect the necessary areas of the skin.And thanks to the sparing exhibition and a small diameter of the processed zone (70 - 150 mn), there are no scars.Regeneration occurs in the shortest possible time and rarely takes more than one day.
Skin barrier function does not suffer from radiation, so the infection is completely excluded.The laser does not affect the internal organs, acting exclusively on the skin.
Therefore, we can say that the influence of laser significantly brings more benefits than damage.
Nominations
The laser has very extensive use.The testimony of the procedures with fraxel are:
- Age -related pigments;
- acne;
- Skin photo colleague;
- Solar burns;
- traces of acne;
- Small and deep wrinkles;
- scars and scars;
- skin pigmentation;
- Post -acne;
- Stretch marks;
- sagging, skin withers, reduced tone;
- Wide pores.
The device not only rejuvenates the skin, but also eliminates many aesthetic problems.
Against -indications
However, there are several against -indications in which the conduct of fraxel procedures is strictly prohibited:
- cancer neoplasms (benign and malignant);
- hormonal disorders;
- Acute form of infectious diseases;
- inflammation in the manipulation zone;
- dermatological diseases;
- Pathology of blood vessels and heart;
- epilepsy;
- tendency to various bleeding;
- Autoimmune diseases;
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- Problems with blood coagulation.
Also, do not perform the procedure during menstrual discharge, although this is more a recommendation than a against -indication.
How is the procedure going?
Prior to the beginning of the procedure, the master visually evaluates the patient's skin condition, determines the exposure methods, the depth of laser ray penetration.It also determines how many sessions may be required to eliminate a specific problem.
The procedure itself is performed at various stages:
- Using a special composition, the skin is clean and disgust.
- Lidocaine ointment with lidocaine is applied to areas that will be processed.Wait 40 minutes.This will prevent pain.
- The affected ointment and the skin itself is lubricated with a lubricant.This allows the device to easily slide over the surface of the skin.
- Then the work is done with the device itself.Initially, a face with a small beak (sequence: forehead, cheeks, chin).After a larger nozzle, the neck and/or the body are treated.
- The eyelid zone is treated last, with a narrow beak.
- Once the laser is completed, the lubricant is removed from the skin.
General recommendations before the procedure
Before the procedure, it is important to consult your doctor and ensure that there are no indications for this type of exposure.In a few days, it is advisable to start taking anti-mining medications to exclude inflammation.
A preliminary consultation with a master coletist who will perform the procedure will not be superfluous.It is likely to give additional recommendations.
Consequences and possible complications
The normal consequences of the procedure include:
- itching and burning (insignificant);
- Skin redness (passes 5 to 7 days);
- edema;
- dryness;
- discomfort;
- Minor pain.
However, despite the soft effect of the fraxl, in rare cases, complications are still possible.These include:
- Pigmentation after inflammation fell;
- significant edema;
- erosion;
- Acne exacerbation;
- Increased skin sensitivity;
- Subcutaneous bleeding;
- Significant reduce that do not go through a long time (more than 7 days after the procedure).
The advantages of laser fraxel
The main advantages of this laser exposure include:
- The possibility of exposure to different areas of the skin (even in the mammary glands and in the area of the eyelids).
- The possibility of punctual effect on the skin, affecting only the areas that should be processed by a laser.
- The ability to renew the skin at the cellular level, activating the internal resources of the body.
Expected result
After several fraxel sessions, the skin should become healthier, pores are narrowed, wrinkles and pigmentation are completely eliminated.In the case of scars and scars, its aesthetic species becomes much better (the insignificant disappears completely).Skin relief is aligned, becomes elastic and toned.
Beware of the skin after processing
To avoid complications and "help" the skin as much after the procedure, it is necessary:
- Sleep with your head raised.This will help reduce swelling.
- It is advisable to eliminate the use of alcohol and nicotine (or at least reduce the quantity).
- Avoid exposure to UV radiation.Including protection against sunlight, use sunscreen for 3 months after the procedure.
- Do not use aggressive cosmetic knockouts and cosmetic products.
- Do not start crusts and peeling in case of appearance.
How often you can do procedures
The duration of the procedure itself usually does not exceed 20 minutes.But the next session can be done not before 5 weeks later.The course of treatment is selected individually for each patient and, on average, has 4-6 sessions.
The laser effect has a cumulative effect, so the result may persist up to 15 years.
Comparison with fraxel therapy with other methods of rejuvenation
Analog fraxel in terms of effect, are considered:
- Thermage.Although it is an analog, it is more effective as an additional procedure for the fraxel.
- Nano-perfration.Although it is a softer procedure, it is not so effective and the effect remains less time.
- Mesotherapy.Also, it is not such an aggressive procedure, but it has a much less pronounced effect.
- Point.It combines the effects of radio and laser waves.This procedure has more against -indications.
Fraxel's analog is also fraxel.However, what is best for him personally, each patient should determine on their own, as devices are similar to the exposure method.Although Fraxel has expanded functionality.
Favorable Combinations
The biggest effect of the procedure can be achieved combining with others.For example, it is advisable to use plasmolifting or ends simultaneously with the fraxel.This will help to quickly achieve the desired result and maintain the effect longer.
