Every woman wants to be beautiful, and today there are plenty of opportunities for this. Laser facial cleansing is one of the most popular procedures. According to experts, it is considered absolutely safe and very effective. Thanks to the laser, you can get rid of such common skin problems as excessive oiliness of the skin, pimples, black spots and peeling of the skin. Independently such a procedure is not carried out - be sure to contact the salon to a beautician.

What it is?

Laser facial cleansing is carried out using the most modern equipment. A light beam with a certain power penetrates into the upper layer of the skin. The cells are heated, freed from excess fluid and, having dried, are rejected. Thus, grinding with a laser allows you to clean the cover of dirt and grease. The depth at which the rays penetrate, as well as their strength, will depend on the tasks set by the beautician. You can spend a superficial or deep cleansing. Reviews say that laser cleaning can not only get rid of such unnecessary manifestations as pimples or pigment spots, but also smooth out the relief, as well as narrow pores.

Although this procedure is carried out almost everywhere, it should be with great attention to the choice of a cosmetologist.

Otherwise, irritation stains, insufficient cleansing and other unpleasant consequences can be expected. The price of laser cleaning depends on the area to be treated, the tasks set, the existing problems and the status of the beauty salon. As a rule, prices in Moscow vary from 5 to 70 thousand rubles, while in the regions this interval ranges from 3 to 40 thousand rubles.

Usually, the matter is not limited to one procedure - a cycle of about five cleanings is to be completed. There is a pause in a month between them, and even more, on the recommendation of a specialist. The maximum number of visits to the beautician can not exceed ten, and between them should be an interval of one month. In addition, there is a recommendation not to do this procedure at the end of spring, in summer and at the beginning of autumn - that is, during those periods when it is very sunny.

Among the advantages of this type of cosmetological effects they note the ability to control how deeply the laser beams penetrate into the skin.

Thus, it will be possible to provide the safest effect even on the most sensitive areas - the lip area or near the eyes. In addition, there is also the absence of severely painful sensations, as well as adverse events. Finally, the result of the laser procedure is long lasting. If we talk about the shortcomings, then they include the high cost, the presence of contraindications, as well as the need to use pain relief. It should be added that it will take some time to recover, so a certain period of time must pass for the positive effect of the procedure to appear.

There are several types of laser cleaning, the most suitable of which will help choose a beautician.

  • Fractional Peeling considered the least traumatic and painful. The impact here is point-like, and heat treatment covers no more than a quarter of the skin. Thus, only diseased cells are affected, and healthy ones are not injured. The procedure itself is carried out for half an hour.
  • The next type of peeling is carbonic.. The laser beam is combined with carbon gel, thereby cleansing the face, as well as the normalization of the sebaceous glands. The deeper layers of the skin are not injured. The peeling ends with a thermal effect on the inner layers of the skin to stimulate its recovery. This procedure lasts from 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Cold peeling performed by a gentle laser and is selected mainly for leveling the terrain. Lifting is not carried out in this case, since the laser acts superficially. It also prevents the appearance of wounds and the difference between individual fragments of the skin.
  • Hot peeling performed by a carbon laser. There is a "burning out" of certain layers of the dermis, which, on the one hand, accelerates the exchange process, but, on the other hand, increases the likelihood of infection. The procedure is carried out pointwise.
  • Erbium peeling removes only dead skin cells. The procedure is carried out quite quickly, but is not suitable for skin with pronounced defects and damage.
  • Finally, peculiarity of carboxide peeling is that in addition to the effects of the laser is the release of carbon dioxide. The latter has a positive effect on the process of renewal of skin cells.

Indications

Mainly laser face resurfacing is recommended for getting rid of acne and black spots. Other skin problems include mimic wrinkles, stretch marks, scars, scars, freckles, impaired pigmentation, “goose spots”. Cosmetologists also offer this service to those whose skin has begun to show signs of aging. Finally, laser cleaning often becomes a salvation for women whose skin has become unfavorable after unsuccessful procedures or poorly selected preparations. Before the procedure, a consultation is required, within the framework of which contraindications are clarified, and also whether it is possible to cope with the troubles by other, more benign measures.

Contraindications

It is important to find out in advance to whom this procedure is contraindicated. It is categorically forbidden to use laser face cleansing for pregnant women and nursing mothers, as well as for those under 22 years old. It is impossible to refer to this procedure for persons suffering from diabetes and epilepsy. It is better to take care in case of any infectious diseases, ARVI, herpes, high fever and inflammations on the face. Finally, laser cleaning is prohibited for women using implants.

It may suffer too dry or sensitive skin - it is expected unpleasant sensations when removing the upper layer.

To solve the issue with contraindications will help a qualified cosmetologist. It is also worth taking into account that during menstruation, the skin may suddenly respond to such a complex cosmetology procedure. You should not do it in the second half of the cycle, when the pain threshold decreases.

How is the procedure?

The essence of the procedure is that the laser removes the upper layer of the dermis, which starts the process of updating the skin, normalizing the sebaceous glands and collagen production. It is advised to perform the procedure no more than once a month so that the skin can recover. In the case of minor skin defects, laser correction is performed even less frequently - once every two or four months.

Two weeks before the prescribed procedure, a visit to the solarium or sunbathing in the open air is stopped.

If you continue to sunbathe, the skin after the laser procedure may acquire an uneven shade. A week before the “day X” it is also worth stopping to steam out the face and use aggressive care products. The same applies to deep peeling or dry cleaning. It is also recommended to examine the body, for example, to pass some tests.

Alcohol should not be consumed on the day of the procedure and it is better not to smoke. Before starting, a beautician examines the condition of the skin.If there are any injuries or damage, then the laser will have to be transferred to a later date. If everything is in order, then you can get down to business. First of all, the remnants of cosmetics and pollution are cleaned with the help of special tools. If the skin is sensitive, then a specialist makes a heat compress. Further antiseptic processing is carried out and work with the laser begins. Tuned to a suitable power, the beam processes selected skin gaps. After the procedure, it comes time soothing and moisturizing mask. Finally, at the end, a product is applied to the skin, which nourishes it and fills it with those substances that could disappear during the procedure.

This skin treatment is completely safe, as the beam affects only the top layer of the skin. This prevents the occurrence of burns or injuries. After the procedure, the skin will return to normal in a maximum of five days, but usually after two days you can observe a healthy shade of the skin. It should be noted that the processing can be performed pointwise. For example, you can pay attention only to the area near the eyes.

Further skin care

After the laser treatment will have to wait quite a bit before the skin returns to normal.

During the week you will have to follow certain rules.

  • First, it is worth reducing the stay in the fresh air - the results of the procedure may suffer due to the abundance of cold air, sunlight or rain drops.
  • Secondly, during this period you can not visit the bath, pool or beach. An atypical environment can also adversely affect the condition of the skin. It is very important not to tear off the crusts appearing on the wounds and, if possible, to abandon cosmetics.
  • Third, everyday care products must be approved by a beautician. It is better to turn your attention to natural, non-aggressive creams and masks. Well, if you can do it yourself. Lotions and tonics should not have chemicals in the composition - it is recommended to replace them with herbal decoctions. It is important to regularly moisturize the skin, and, going outside, apply a protective agent from the sun's rays on the face (SPF factor should be 50 and above).
  • Fourth, for this period, you can change and diet. Experts urge to eat more vegetables, foods that have ascorbic acid and amino acids in the diet. Hyaluronic acid can be replenished by adding beans and beets to the diet. Ideally, this period also needs to give up alcohol consumption, since alcohol leads to fluid retention and the appearance of edema.

It is important to understand that after laser treatment, scars may occur (in case of an apparatus setting error or skin predisposition), blisters that require treatment, swelling, small hemorrhages and other problems.

The physician performing the procedure must inform in advance what to do in any given situation. Painful sensations occur very rarely, but if there are concerns, you will have to consult with a beautician in advance on how to fix them. Only a specialist can recommend medicines and cosmetics that can eliminate the problem.
