From the pages of fantasy novels, a laser beam stepped into our real life. Now it is difficult to imagine many industries without using the power of this miracle beam. Medicine has not been left out. Almost all of its areas use a laser beam. It has also been widely used in cosmetology, especially in cases where laser scar removal is necessary.
There are several modifications of lasers used for this purpose. Ablative (carbon dioxide) laser, acting on the surface of the scar or scar, contributes to the evaporation of the upper layer of the skin. This type of laser has been used since the 90s. It has several significant drawbacks. CO2 laser scar removal may be recommended for patients with oily skin types that have deep, bulbous scars.
This is the toughest type of laser currently in existence - it damages closely located tissues more than others. The device belongs to the first generation of lasers and has one common problem with other models of that period - this is a “demarcation” line that clearly separates the processed andraw surface.
CO2 lasers are constantly being improved and refined. Today, they use a superpulse mode, which makes it possible to reduce the depth of penetration of the beam and the traumatism of intact tissues. The advantage of these lasers is the effect of traction. Skin tissue shrinks, pores shrink and skin oiliness decreases.
Laser scar removal is now more popular with
Nd: YAG laser (neodymium), which belongs to the group of non-ablative devices (under the influence of these lasers, the skin is damaged). Getting deep into the scar, the beam affects the inner layers of the skin. Vessels are destroyed, which in turn leads to impaired blood flow and significantly reduces the supply of nutrients to the scar, while provoking the formation of collagen. This reduces the scar and gives the effect of dermoplasty.
Nd:YAG laser scar removal is currently considered the most effective, popular and safe method, widely accepted worldwide among patients and laser therapy professionals. The use of this method guarantees the absence of side effects that may occur when using other devices. In addition, this type of laser is widely used when it is necessary to remove postoperative scars.
However, this highly effective method of getting rid of scars and scars has contraindications: pregnancy, epilepsy, malignant neoplasms at the treatment site, transferred
Chemical peel, psoriasis less than two weeks ago.
Many people are concerned about the question of whether it is possible to remove scars after acne. This is a serious problem for many people who have experienced a "turbulent" transitional age. Pimple marks can be quite unattractive and can disfigure the prettiest face. The most effective way to deal with acne scars is laser resurfacing. This procedure is carried out using the latest generation erbium laser. It is very effective and gives great results. The skin becomes completely smooth and even. No marks or stains left.
