Photorejuvenation and minilifting by Nd:YAG laser
The most popular esthetic procedure in the world
ST MEDICA hospital is the first hospital in this region which started to use the latest generation Nd-YAG in its practice. This laser emits beams with wave length of 1064 nm, and its primary target is the hemoglobin of the circulation around the hair root as well as the hair follicule itself.
Laser beam has an antiflammatory and regenerative effect whereby it calms the infection and simultaneously boosts reparation of structure of the dermis. That way fresh scars and blemishes are removed, acne treated, much better complexion is achieved and skin tonus in the treated region improved.
Treatment by ND YAG laser is at the moment the most popular esthetic procedure in the world, because it gives extraordinary results without skin irritation, scabs or redness which is confirmed by hundreds of thousands of treatments performed every year in the world.
Nonablative lasers are definitely a planetary hit and are not a matter of fashion but an ideal device for rejuvenation and moderate skin tightening - minilifting effect. Their advantage is in it that fantastic effects are achieved without skin irritation so during the therapy daily activities of the patient are not disrupted, because the skin bears minimal side effects such as redness, swelling, flaking, scabs and suffusions.
Laser beam of a certain wave length is not resorbed in the skin but passes through it not damaging it and targets the collagen fibres and fibroblasts in subcutaneous layer which causes their reparation (fibroblasts begin in 7 days to create new collagen fibres whose production peak occurs around day 21, and the full effect of the production stimulation is in 3 months) which leads to simultaneous skin tightening and disappearance of fine lines, and the repaired subdermis in turn binds more water which is manifested by its increased TURGOR AND ELASTICITY i.e. SKIN IS JUICIER AND MORE ELASTIC.
WHAT IS THE SECRET OF THIS LASER AND THE PROCEDURE OF ITS APPLICATION
- excellent result in indicated cases
- noninvasiveness
- painless treatment (performed without the use of anesthetics)
- in indicated cases it is possible to be rejuvenated without being submitted to surgical procedures
- quickness of the intervention itself (treatment lasts 10-40 minutes and is done in a series of 2-5 treatments whereby complete recovery of the skin and elimination of all structural damages is achieved
- extraordinarily quick return to daily activities and use of make up
Durability of the achieved effect is 3-5 years but what is more important is that SKIN AND SUBDERMIS ARE REJUVENATED AND REPAIRED and as such IT TAKES MORE TIME TO AGE AND RETAINS THEIR YOUTHFUL APPEARANCE later on.
Four weeks prior to and after the laser treatment it is not allowed to:
- get exposed in the sun or to use sun beds
- perform chemical peel or a similar treatment
- use medicines which cause increased photosensitive reaction of the skin (sulfonamides, tetracyclines, amiodarone, largaktyl, some diuretics …)
Contraindications:
- pregnancy
- malignant diseases
- systemic diseases
- hemophilia
- epilepsy
- use of medicines which lead to increased photosensitive skin reaction
