In the beauty industry market today you can find the richest assortment of devices. Smart cars help us to restore and maintain beauty. In this article we will talk about different types of laser devices for skin rejuvenation - which one to choose for a particular procedure, how they differ and so on. Sh.
Laser skin stretching has long been an alternative to a surgical scalpel. This lifting is a minimally invasive procedure, after which there is no suturing or a long recovery period. It is called fractional thermolysis because during the manipulations the laser beam is divided into small beams (fractions), with the help of which a micro lattice is formed on the surface of the dermis. In fact, these are micro ranks. The body begins to recover vigorously, producing collagen and elastin in the cells.
The bonus of restoring skin structure is correcting wrinkles, brightening pigmented areas, improving facial skin and fighting scars and defects.
Peculiarities
There are several lines of modern laser systems in the cosmetics market. Almost all devices can be adapted to the individual needs and problems of the client. For example, thin or sensitive facial skin, prone to allergies, etc. Sh.
Fractional rejuvenation techniques are divided as follows, depending on the intensity and depth of penetration:
Non-ablative
Microtrauma does not form in this technology - the laser beam does not "damage" the epidermis, the effect is only at a deep level, but the internal processes of rejuvenation are activated again, fibroblasts are actively stimulated.
Ablative
In this case, the effect of the laser beam is more pronounced - the tissue evaporates from the upper part of the epidermis. The device adapts well to aging skin, successfully solves the problems of ptosis, deep wrinkles and strong pigmentation.
What lasers are there?
Laser skin stretching is usually performed with two types of apparatus. Let me tell you more about them.
ᲜCarbon dioxide
First appeared on the market in the 80s, it was based on a pulsed carbon apparatus. The effect of the app was colossal, though the recovery period took a very long time. Not all clients could pay for the rehabilitation period of two to three months.
Erbium
But this model appeared in the 90s. Powered by crystals. Instantly removes moisture from the cells, thus having a more targeted effect on the skin layers.
Some models of modern devices use additional capabilities derived from neodymium and thulium lasers.
The most popular brands are Palomar, Fraxel and GentleYAG.
Fraxel perfectly handles fine wrinkles, blemishes, scars, evens out complexion, removes acne. Acting on the skin very gently, you can successfully work on even the thinnest and most sensitive skin of the eyelids.
GentleYAG is used during complex lifting. After the procedure the pores are narrowed, the wrinkles are smoothed, the vascular network is reduced, the relaxation of the tissues disappears. An important plus can be considered the possibility of such laser rejuvenation using this technology, even in summer.
The famous Palomar is used by specialists for various purposes. It is a treatment for rosacea, skin tightening and removal of defects.
Indications, prices and contraindications

The cosmetologist is obliged to advise the client and choose the appropriate therapy strategy - how many sessions are needed, what should be the depth of the beam.
Before the procedure, it is desirable to prepare the skin by performing a cleansing peeling. On average, the duration of an entire session is five to 25 minutes. Finally, the technician will apply a special cooling gel to the treated areas to reduce swelling and redness.
