Laser resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing is a non-surgical renewal method of the epidermis's upper layer in problem areas. The principle is based on laser exposure to keratinized cells and subsequent evaporation. After that, the skin cells begin to divide, collagen synthesis is activated, and a new young skin is formed on the damaged area. In addition, the procedure improves the blood circulation of tissues. As a result, facial relief is leveled, deep wrinkles disappear, and pimples, acne marks, and scars disappear. During the consultation with the doctor, all the manipulation details are discussed. Then, the physician evaluates the condition and type of skin, selects the kind of laser and anesthesia, and prescribes the necessary examination. Before starting, the face is thoroughly cleaned and treated with an antiseptic. The procedure can be slightly painful. Therefore, an anesthetic is necessary. At the time of the process, the patient and doctor should wear eyeglasses. The total time of the procedure is about 1. 5 hours, and for partial processing - about 30-45 minutes. 2-3 weeks after, the patient can enjoy the first results. The final effect should be expected in 1-2 months. The waiting time depends on the initial condition of the skin and the number of sessions. Laser skin resurfacing is usually performed several times yearly for the maximum rejuvenating effect.
