Resurfacing laser treatment
Resurfacing is an aesthetic medicaltreatment that uses the fractional CO2 laser to remove the layers of the epidermis to reach the superficial dermis, allowing for complete skin renewal. Therefore,laser resurfacingcanattenuate wrinkles and acne scars by vaporizing the cells of the epidermis.
How to have a smooth andimperfect-free skin with the CO2 laser
Laser resurfacing is an effective medical practice for the effects of time and for rejuvenating facial skin that loses tone due to ageing and exposure to sunlightbut also to improve the appearance of pitted skin. When the treatment is treated, the face is fresher and more youthful, thanks to the use of the fractionated CO2 laser: it vaporizes the term surface layer of the epidermis, affects the affected cells and does not damage the surrounding tissue.
Laser resurfacing works through heat, which stimulates the production of collagen, whichhelps the skin to be more compact and elastic. The light is emitted in a very intense way but in a very short time, this means that the thickness of the coagulated skin is so small that it does not cause the side effects of lasers with a higher pulse of light. Furthermore, this procedure does not create any thermal damage to the tissues adjacent to those treated.
Laser resurfacing: before and after
The most requested treatments are those of:
Face laser resurfacing
Laser resurfacing for dark circles
Laser resurfacing for scars
Laser resurfacing around the eyes
This procedure is also effective when practised on hands, neck and stretch marks.
The results on fine and superficial wrinkles are evident, and even the deepest ones are attenuated. It is important, at the end of the treatment, to apply an antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and moisturizing ointmentand not to expose the skin to the sun for atleast a month, but to use total protection creams. In the first week after the laser resurfacing session, the skin appears red, but after a dozen days,it takes on a younger and shinier appearance.
To have satisfactory results, 2-3 sessions are required (spaced out by a couple of months), since the effects are cumulative and progressive.
