Ablative fractional lasers

Aging of the skin is an inevitable process resulting from the natural slowing down of cell regeneration, decreased production of collagen and elastin, and the influence of external factors such as UV radiation. The result of these changes is the appearance of wrinkles, loss of firmness and elasticity in the skin, which can negatively affect one's well-being and self-perception. Modern aesthetic medicine offers effective and innovative solutions that allow for slowing down skin aging, as well as reducing existing wrinkles and imperfections. Laser skin resurfacing is an advanced method that not only effectively reduces visible signs of aging but also improves the overall condition of the skin. Thanks to the precise action of fractional ablative laser, it is possible to reach deeper layers of the skin where crucial regenerative processes take place. As a result, the skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more radiant, without the need for more invasive methods.

INDICATIONS FOR ABLATIVE FRACTIONAL LASER RESURFACING:

  • Wrinkles - the treatment effectively reduces both fine lines and deeper grooves. It works particularly well for treating expression lines (e.g. around the eyes, on the forehead, around the mouth) and static wrinkles, which result from skin aging and loss of elasticity. The laser stimulates the skin to intense regeneration, and the production of new collagen and elastin makes it smoother and firmer.
  • Loss of skin firmness - the laser stimulates collagen synthesis, contributing to improving the firmness and elasticity of the skin, especially in areas such as cheeks, jawline, and neck.
  • Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone - the treatment effectively reduces pigmentation spots, melasma, and sunspots, improving the overall uniformity of the complexion.
  • Sun damage and photoaging - the laser reduces the negative effects of prolonged sun exposure, improving the quality of the skin and its ability to regenerate.
  • Dull and damaged skin - laser resurfacing stimulates cellular renewal, giving the skin a younger, fresher look and improving its tone.
  • Enlarged pores and uneven skin texture - the laser narrows pores and smoothens the skin surface, making it more even and healthy.
  • Sun keratosis and other skin changes - the treatment helps to remove changes related to chronic exposure to UV radiation and some precancerous skin conditions.
  • Acne and post-traumatic scars - laser resurfacing reduces the visibility of scars by stimulating regenerative processes and leveling the skin's structure.
  • Postoperative scars and stretch marks - resurfacing improves the appearance of scars and stretch marks through intensive skin rebuilding and stimulation for regeneration.
  • Hands, neck, and décolletage - the laser can also be used on other areas of the body showing signs of aging and loss of firmness.
  • Anti-aging prophylaxis - the treatment is recommended for individuals wanting to delay the aging process and improve overall skin condition through deep regeneration.

Resurfacing laser is an effective method for rejuvenating and improving skin quality. Prior to the procedure, we invite you for a free consultation with a specialist who will assess indications and possible contraindications.

CONTRAINDICATIONS TO ABLATIVE FRACTIONAL LASER RESURFACING:

Fractional ablative laser resurfacing is an intense rejuvenating treatment that involves precise removal of skin layers to stimulate regeneration. Due to the deep intervention in the skin structure, there are several contraindications that need to be considered to avoid complications and ensure a safe healing process.

  • Skin infections - such as herpes, bacterial, fungal, and viral infections increase the risk of complications; full healing is necessary before the procedure.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding - there are no studies on the impact of laser on the fetus and lactation; it is recommended to postpone the treatment until after breastfeeding.
  • Fresh tan and sun exposure - skin exposed to the sun in the last 4-6 weeks may be more susceptible to burns and discoloration.
  • Use of photosensitizing drugs - tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, oral retinoids (at least 6 months of discontinuation), topical retinoids (4 weeks of discontinuation), some antidepressants and psychotropic drugs increase the risk of adverse reactions.
  • Photosensitizing herbs - St. John's Wort, horsetail, St. John's Wort, chamomile can cause phototoxic reactions; they should be discontinued at least 2-4 weeks before the procedure.
  • Autoimmune diseases - lupus, psoriasis, scleroderma, and other conditions may lead to improper skin regeneration; the procedure is only possible after medical consultation and during remission.
  • Tendency to keloids - laser treatment may lead to excessive scarring in individuals predisposed to keloids.
  • Cancer and oncologic therapy - resurfacing is not recommended for cancer patients; the treatment can be considered at least 6 months after the end of therapy, after consulting with a doctor.
  • Diabetes and other metabolic diseases - may cause skin healing disorders and increase the risk of infection, requiring prior evaluation by a doctor.
  • Use of chemical peels and other exfoliating treatments - deep peels (TCA, phenol) require a break of at least 3-6 months, superficial peels (AHA, BHA) 4 weeks before the procedure.
  • Anticoagulant drugs - consultation with a doctor is necessary to discontinue them 3-5 days before the procedure to reduce the risk of bleeding and healing difficulties.
  • Skin healing disorders - connective tissue diseases, immune deficiencies, and other conditions can lead to prolonged regeneration and increased risk of complications.
  • Skin previously treated with lasers - in the case of recent laser treatments, waiting a few months is necessary depending on the depth of the previous intervention.

POST-FRACTIONAL ABLATIVE LASER RESURFACING CARE RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Avoiding sun exposure - for at least 4-6 weeks, it is recommended to use SPF 50+ sunscreen and avoid direct sunlight to prevent discoloration.
  • Using regenerative and moisturizing creams - regularly apply soothing and skin-rebuilding products such as panthenol, allantoin, hyaluronic acid, or ceramide-based products.
  • Avoiding high temperatures - for 7-10 days after the procedure, avoid hot baths, saunas, tanning beds, and intense physical activity to prevent excessive skin irritation.
  • Gentle skin hygiene - wash the skin with mild, fragrance-free, alcohol-free cleansers, and avoid rubbing the skin with a towel.
  • Avoiding the removal of peeling skin - the peeling process can last from 5 to 10 days, do not accelerate it with peels or manual removal to avoid scarring.
  • Avoiding makeup - for the first 5-7 days, the skin is very sensitive, so refrain from using colored cosmetics that can clog pores and delay the healing process.
  • Using prescribed medical products - if the doctor has recommended using antibacterial, steroid, or anti-inflammatory ointments, follow the instructions to prevent infection.
  • Drinking plenty of water - proper hydration supports the skin regeneration process and accelerates healing.
  • Avoiding irritating substances - for at least 2-3 weeks, do not use retinoids, AHA/BHA/PHA acids, alcohol in cosmetics, or strong exfoliating substances to avoid skin irritation.
  • Regular follow-up visits - according to the doctor's recommendations, monitor the healing process and report any concerning symptoms, such as prolonged redness, excessive burning, or signs of infection.
  • Full skin regeneration after ablative resurfacing can take several weeks, so consistent adherence to recommendations will expedite the recovery process and ensure the best treatment outcomes.

The above recommendations are general in nature. For detailed and personalized post-procedure guidelines, consult with the specialist performing the procedure, who will tailor the proper skincare regimen to your skin's individual needs.

Fractional laser resurfacing for wrinkle reduction.

Laser wrinkle removal is one of the most effective techniques in fighting signs of skin aging. Fractional ablative wrinkle smoothing treatments, utilizing pulses of laser light, guarantee excellent, long-lasting results after just one session. The laser light penetrates the skin to the desired depth and, thanks to a specific level of heat, triggers a sharp reaction in the dermis in the form of skin healing. The laser's action is based on stimulating the skin's natural regenerative processes. The laser energy precisely reaches deeper skin layers, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin - two key proteins responsible for firmness and elasticity.

The action of fractional laser utilizes the phenomenon of partial photothermolysis. During the treatment, small, pinpoint skin damage is created while preserving the surrounding intact tissues. These conditions strongly stimulate skin renewal, and thanks to the undamaged cells around the destroyed columns, the recovery time is minimal. The result is noticeably smoother, tighter, and radiant skin, as well as wrinkle reduction on the face, around the eyes, and mouth.

Laser treatments are extremely effective for both shallow and deep wrinkles. Furthermore, the laser works comprehensively, reducing not only wrinkles but also fine scars, enlarged pores, or uneven skin tone. Therefore, it is an ideal solution for individuals who want to improve their skin condition without undergoing more invasive procedures.

FACIAL WRINKLE LASER

Face is an area that quickly reveals signs of aging. Laser treatments for facial wrinkles are a safe and effective method that allows for skin rejuvenation in a natural and minimally invasive way. Advanced fractional ablative laser technologies enable skin rejuvenation and resurfacing, as well as wrinkle reduction. The laser beam, penetrating the skin, causes controlled damage and restructuring of skin cells. This leads to stimulation of intensive regenerative processes, resulting in the multiplication of collagen fibers and the formation of new skin structures. The laser is customized to meet the individual needs of the patient. Depending on the severity of wrinkles, skin type, and desired effects, the appropriate type and parameters of the laser are selected to ensure maximum effectiveness, minimal recovery time, and best results. - The iPixel Er:Yag fractional ablative laser is the most advanced laser system in the world designed for ablative resurfacing and skin rejuvenation, as well as wrinkle reduction, pigmentation correction, scar reduction, stretch marks, and enlarged pores. The laser's action disrupts the outer layer of the epidermis by evaporating water from the cells. This results in evening out skin tone, improving firmness and tightness, as well as reducing wrinkles, scars, and unevenness. - The Pixel CO2 fractional ablative laser is a system that allows for wrinkle reduction and skin imperfections. Additionally, its action rebuilds the skin structure and lifts it, resulting in a spectacular rejuvenation and smoothing effect, restoring the skin's density and elasticity. - Another option for restoring firm, wrinkle-free skin may be the medical 2940 fractional ablative laser. The laser's action allows for skin resurfacing - rejuvenation of the outer, damaged skin layers and remodeling of deeper layers. The laser also helps to reduce the effects of aging and various skin conditions with a minimal recovery period.

LASER FOR UNDER EYE WRINKLES

The skin around the eyes is particularly delicate and prone to wrinkles. Crow's feet and fine lines around the eyes can appear at a young age, especially in individuals with rich facial expressions. Laser wrinkle removal under the eyes is an excellent solution for those who want to reduce these imperfections without risking damage to the sensitive area.

Thanks to the precise action of the laser, it is possible not only to smooth out wrinkles but also to improve skin texture and reduce dark circles under the eyes. This procedure is quick, and the effects are visible after a few weeks. After the treatment, the skin gradually regenerates, becoming noticeably smoother and younger. Properly selected laser parameters allow for spectacular results with minimal invasiveness.

FOREHEAD WRINKLE LASER TREATMENT

Wrinkles on the forehead are one of the most visible signs of aging. They can appear as both horizontal lines and vertical furrows, often referred to as "frown lines." Laser treatments for forehead wrinkles are an excellent solution for individuals who want to get rid of these imperfections and give their face a more relaxed and youthful appearance. During the treatment, the laser stimulates the skin to regenerate, removing damaged cells and stimulating the production of new collagen. This process leads to a gradual smoothing of wrinkles and improvement in the overall condition of the skin. After a series of treatments, the forehead becomes more tightened and smoother, without the "frozen face" effect that can occur with injections using botulinum toxin.

WRINKLE LASER - PRICE

The cost of laser wrinkle removal depends on several factors, such as the treatment area, the type of laser used, and the number of sessions required. At Beauty Embassy, prices for treatments start from a few hundred zlotys for a single session. However, to achieve spectacular results, it is recommended to undergo a series of treatments, which may affect the final cost.

It is worth noting that laser treatments are an investment in the quality and health of the skin. Laser wrinkle removal is a method that provides long-lasting effects, making it highly cost-effective compared to other procedures. Before the treatment, we consult with patients to understand their expectations and carefully assess the skin's condition to choose the best solutions.

Laser wrinkle removal is an effective, safe, and increasingly popular method to combat signs of aging.
