Laser resurfacing of the face is prescribed for such problems:
- Skin photoaging. Under the influence of ultraviolet rays, the skin of the face ages, the number of superficial cell layers of the epidermis increases, there is a constant accumulation of fibrous tissues, and the amount of fluid in the dermis decreases. All this leads to a decrease in skin elasticity, the appearance of superficial and deep wrinkles on the face, neck, and décolleté. The impact of the Erbium and CO2 laser allows you to quickly solve the problem of photoaging;
- scars, scars. As a result of injuries, the edges of the wound (including burns) may grow together incorrectly. In these places, connective tissues penetrate between the layers of cells, form their own layers, and scars appear. Laser facial resurfacing is able to eliminate atrophic, hypertrophic scars of red, blue color;
- post-acne scars. Secondary persistent changes occur after a long acne and its improper treatment. In this case, laser beams eliminate a large number of dead layers, start regeneration, due to which the epidermis is fully renewed and the scar rises in height. Fractional resurfacing reduces the density of post-acne scars, reduces their depth, and has a positive effect on the structure of the skin. Such a resurfacing procedure practically does not cause pain, since in the process of work, the doctor uses the Zimmer Cryo 6 local skin cooling system;
- pigment spots, freckles. Age spots can form after a long, regular exposure to the active sun, after visiting a solarium, pregnancy, childbirth, sometimes they appear with age (liver spots). Superficial or median laser resurfacing for pigmentation can remove freckles, age spots, making the skin fresher and more uniform.
