laser facial rejuvination

Rejuvenation of the facial skin by the laser beam's energy is used to increase the firmness and elasticity of the skin, tighten it, and eliminate wrinkles. In addition, the laser evens out the relief and tone of the skin, allowing you to eliminate pigmentation. The penetration of energy into the middle and deep layers of the dermis activates skin regeneration and enhances elastin and collagen's natural production.

The primary device for laser rejuvenation at the Oxford Medical department of aesthetic medicine is a multifunctional alexandrite-diode laser Candela GentleMax Pro.

Candela GentleMax Pro has two laser beams - alexandrite and diode, each proven to be effective and safe. However, their effect on the skin is somewhat different and provides different effects. Therefore, both combinations give the best result and allow you to solve several problems in one session. The Candela GentleMax Pro has been rigorously tested and approved by the American Quality Assurance Service (FDA).

By warming up the tissues, Candela GentleMax Pro boosters the production of collagen in the skin, stimulates small muscles, pores narrowing, skin tightening, fine expression lines eliminating, and complexion improving.

Also, at Oxford Medical, laser facial rejuvenation procedures are performed using the Israeli device E-Max (Elos), which combines laser and radio wave energy.

The Elos technology also occupies a special place in laser cosmetology. It is the first device to combine light energy (laser) with radio waves. The laser penetrates the deep layers of the skin and heats them, and radio waves, acting on them, provoke cell contraction, increased self-regeneration, and synthesis of valuable substances. As a result, after a while, the skin tightens, and its condition improves significantly.

You can find out which procedure will be most effective in your case at a free consultation with a cosmetologist.

First, the patient undergoes a consultation, during which the beautician assesses the condition of the skin and chooses the type of procedure that will help obtain the best result.

The session is carried out in several stages:

1. Make-up removal and skin cleansing.
2. Disinfection of the skin with an antiseptic.
3. Application of refinisher (optional) and cooling gel.
4. Laser treatment of all problem areas.
5. Application to the skin of an anti-inflammatory healing agent.

The procedure takes about 30-40 minutes.

The rehabilitation period can last from 1 to 7 days or more, depending on the procedure performed and the degree of laser exposure to the skin. After some sessions, facial redness and slight swelling may occur for several days.

After laser rejuvenation, it is recommended:

• do not use decorative cosmetics and alcohol-containing products until the skin heals;
• apply only creams prescribed by the cosmetologist on the face;
• 3 days do not take a hot bath, do not visit saunas;
• avoid direct sunlight on your face for 2 weeks and use sunscreen.

The beautician will tell you more about skincare after the procedure.

Numerous scientific and clinical studies have confirmed the effectiveness of laser facial rejuvenation. The first result can be seen a few days after the procedure. Still, it appears in full measure after a cycle of sessions, the number of which is determined individually (from 1 to 8 procedures, depending on the chosen technique, with an interval of 2-3 weeks).

The result of laser rejuvenation lasts for several years. To maintain it, it is often recommended to carry out 1 procedure every 6 months.

Although laser rejuvenation is a non-surgical and relatively gentle procedure compared to alternative ones, it still has several contraindications. In the presence of some of them, the session must be postponed until the problem is solved, and in others, it should be abandoned altogether - then the cosmetologist will select another technique.

Contraindications to laser rejuvenation procedures:

• acute diseases;
