Is it possible to achieve a beautiful and toned skin without scars and pigmentation? Maybe. Since the laser machine has been used in cosmetology.
There are ablative and non-ablative methods of laser rejuvenation - each solves its own skin problems. Whichever method you choose, read the article.
Laser rejuvenation: differences between ablative and non-ablative methods
Ablative rejuvenation is a way to tighten the skin with quick and visible results.
In the ablative method, a carbon dioxide or erbium laser is used. Light radiation only affects the upper layers of the skin to a depth of up to 1 mm. This is enough to eliminate or correct skin problems.
The procedure is suitable for solving problems:
- wrinkles,
- acne scars,
- decrease in skin tone,
- static wrinkles around the eyes,
- some disorders of pigment formation.
In addition to the lifting effect, the ablative laser allows you to remove or reduce stretch marks, scars and scars.
The rehabilitation period is 5-7 days. Repeated sessions are usually not needed.
In the non-ablative method, the laser causes micro-damage to stimulate collagen production. In this case, the deeper layers of the skin are affected without damaging the upper ones - the slight redness disappears within an hour. The procedure is suitable for those who want:
- remove excess pigmentation
- improves facial skin tone without surgery.
Non-ablative laser skin tightening is the right option if you are looking for a way to rejuvenate without interruption.
The method has a cumulative effect - for best results, 3-4 procedures with an interval of 2 weeks are recommended.
What type of laser rejuvenation to choose?
The choice of method depends on the age and the problems you want to solve. Alternatively, you can try a SMAS hardware face change.
For example, an ablative method is appropriate to remove fine lines or reduce acne scars. For skin rejuvenation at the age of 25-35 years, a non-ablative method is suitable: the laser acts more gently on the deep layers of the epidermis.
