Fraxel is a recently displayed procedure for renovating facial skin, using a special apparatus.This procedure is performed using a laser, which operates on the basis of fractional phototermolysis.
This technology affects the skin, damaging its tissue.Because of this, the process of self -healing begins.All due to the fact that the cells begin to produce barely produce collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
A feature of technology
The main characteristic of technology is the care of its impact and performance.It is also noteworthy that due to the division of the laser beam into smaller rays, the accuracy of the exposure increases significantly.
Types of Fractional Laser Photathetermiasis
Phototermoliza in the field is divided into 2 types:
- Ablative.Its wavelength is 2,940 nm.This type of radiation is absorbed by water, so the radius affects all levels of the skin.The master can adjust the depth of penetration, acting on a certain layer, for the maximum effect.
- Non-Blative.The wavelength is adjustable from 1,320 to 1,540 nm.This type of radiation affects deep skin structures, 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 becomes toned, lethargy and its sagging are eliminated.
Skin restoration occurs faster when exposed to non-batic.But after the ablative, peel and redness are possible.However, both types have high efficiency.
Laser Fraksel varieties
There are several types of Fraxel laser, each of which has its own characteristics.
Scraxel
Is the most common device.Its wavelength is 1,550 nm, and the depth of penetration can be awarded from 0.4 to 1.4 mm.It helps to eliminate age -related pigment points, acne, sunburn, acne tracks, and also fights with a glass of skin.
Erby laser
This is a laser that has a wavelength of 1,440 nm.Of all the patterns presented, it is softer, 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 pattern is also permissible in the mammal glands and the eyelid skin.And the recovery period after its use is minimal.
Re -store
The model is more advanced as it combines 2 laser and has a different wavelength:
- Erbiye - 1,550 nm;
- Tulium - 1 927 nm.
This model is used to eliminate wounds and wounds, deep and small wrinkles, to remove pigmentation and removal of the post.
Pair
Of all the models presented is more aggressive.Therefore, they are treated exclusively deep layers of the epidermis.This device can also eliminate deep wrinkles on the face and neck.He also faces wounds and wounds.
Benefits or damage from the laser
Advanced technology allows you to equally affect the necessary areas of the skin.And thanks to the saved exposure and a small diameter of the processed area (70 - 150 mn), there is no tooth.Regeneration is done in the shortest possible time and rarely requires more than a day.
The function of skin barriers does not suffer from radiation, so the infection is completely excluded.Laser does not affect the internal organs, acting exclusively on the skin.
Therefore, we can say that the impact of the laser brings significantly more benefit than harm.
Indications
Laser is very wide use.Proof of Fraxel procedures are:
- age -related pigmentations;
- acne;
- Photographic skin colleague;
- sunburn;
- trace of acne;
- small and deep wrinkles;
- wounds and wounds;
- skin pigmentation;
- Posting -acne;
- Stretching signs;
- Sagging, disappearing from the skin, reduced tone;
- Wide pores.
The device not only reneys the skin, but also eliminates many aesthetic problems.
Contraindications
However, there are a number of contraindications that prohibit performing fraxel procedures:
- cancer neoplasms (both benign and malignant);
- hormonal disorders;
- acute form of infectious diseases;
- inflammation in the manipulation area;
- Dermatological diseases;
- Pathology of blood vessels and heart;
- epilepsy;
- tendencies for different bleeding;
- Autoimmune diseases;
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- Problems with blood clotting.
Also, do not perform the procedure during menstrual discharge, although this is more of a recommendation than a contraindication.
How is the procedure going?
Before the procedure begins, the master visually evaluates the condition of the patient's skin, determines the exposure methods, the depth of the laser radius penetration.It also determines how many sessions may be necessary to eliminate a particular problem.
The procedure itself is performed in several stages:
- Using a special composition, the skin is cleaned and degenerated.
- Lidocaine oil with lidocaine is applied to areas to be processed.Wait for 40 minutes.This will prevent pain.
- The oil stroke and the skin itself is lubricated with a lubricant.This allows the device to slide easily over the surface of the skin.
- Then the work is done with the device itself.Initially, a face with a small mouth (sequence: forehead, cheeks, beards).After a larger nozzle, the neck and/or body are treated.
- The eyelid area is treated last, with a narrow nose.
- 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 make sure there are no contraindications for this type of exposure.After a few days, it is advisable to start taking anti-minerates in order to exclude inflammation.
A preliminary consultation with a master-chosenologist who will perform the procedure will not be redundant.He is likely to make additional recommendations.
Possible consequences and complications
Normal consequences of the procedure include:
- itching and burning (insignificant);
- rash (passes in 5-7 days);
- edema;
- dryness;
- discomfort;
- Little pain.
However, despite the mild effect of fraxel, in rare cases, complications are still possible.These include:
- Pigmentation after inflammation has come down;
- important edema;
- erosion;
- acne irritation;
- increased skin sensitivity;
- subcutaneous bleeding;
- Significant rashes that do not pass for a long time (more than 7 days after the procedure).
Advantages of Fraxel Laser
The main advantages of such a laser exposure include:
- The possibility of exposure to different areas of the skin (even in the mammals and the eyelid area).
- The possibility of point effect on the skin, affecting only those areas that need to be processed by a laser.
- The ability to renew the skin at the cellular level, activating the body's internal sources.
The expected outcome
After some fraxel sessions, the skin should become healthier, the pores are narrowed, wrinkles and pigmentation are completely eliminated.In the case of wounds and wounds, their aesthetic species become much better (insignificant disappears completely).Skin relief is connected, becomes elastic and toned.
Skin care after processing
To avoid complications and "help" the skin as much as possible after the procedure, it is necessary:
- Sleep with a raised head.This will help reduce swelling.
- It is advisable to eliminate the use of alcohol and nicotine (or at least reduce the amount).
- Avoid exposure to UV radiation.Including protection against sunlight, use the sun screen for 3 months, after the procedure.
- Do not use aggressive cleaning and cosmetics.
- Do not chop the crust and peel, in the event of their appearance.
How often can you do procedures
The duration of the procedure itself usually does not exceed 20 minutes.But the next session can be held no earlier than 5 weeks later.The course of treatment is individually selected for each patient, and on average there are 4-6 sessions.
The laser effect has a cumulative effect, so the result can continue for up to 15 years.
Comparison Fraxel therapy with other renewal methods
Analog fraxel in terms of effect, considered:
- The deadline, although an analog, is more effective as an additional procedure for fraxel.
- Nano-performance.Although it is a softer procedure, it is not that effective, and the effect remains less time.
- Mesotherapy.Moreover, not such an aggressive procedure is more affordable in cost, but has a much less pronounced effect.
- The point combines the effects of radio and laser waves.This procedure has more contraindications.
Analog Fraxel is also fraxel.However, what is best for him personally, each patient must determine himself, as the equipment is similar to the exposure method.Although Fraxel has expanded functionality.
Favorable combinations
The greatest effect of the procedure can be achieved by combining it with others.For example, it is advisable to use plasmolifting or thermry at the same time with fraxel.This will help to quickly achieve the desired result and maintain the effect longer.
