What is Fractional Non-Ablative Tapering?

Aesthetic defects and age-related changes in the skin can cause serious moral complaints. Especially when it comes to women who want to remain attractive and desirable for as long as possible. And while scientists have failed to unravel the mystery of "eternal youth, " there is still some progress. We are specifically talking about fractional non-ablative tapering - a non-surgical corrective technique that involves exposing tissue to a laser.

Phases of the non-ablative rejuvenation process

The technology is based on the conversion of light energy into heat. The laser beam penetrates under the skin and heats the tissue to 45-86 ° C, thereby provoking partial evaporation of the liquid in a volume that stimulates the natural metabolic and biochemical reactions in the cellular and extracellular matrix of the skin. In addition, the process of neocollagenesis is initiated in the processing zones - the formation of new collagen fibers, which are responsible for the elasticity and firmness of the skin. In addition, the radiation is absorbed by the chromophores of the skin and penetrates the dermis, bypassing the epidermis, which creates an additional antibacterial effect.

The procedure of non-ablative laser rejuvenation is absolutely painless, is carried out without anesthesia and does not cause pain or discomfort. In addition, it is widely used as the main method of correcting age-related changes on particularly sensitive areas of the skin - the neck, around the eyes, etc. To achieve a visible effect, 3-4 sessions with an interval of 2-3 days are sufficient. In the period between procedures, you should adhere to the recommendations of the specialist in order to consolidate the positive results.
