Laser Skin Rejuvenation

Today, there are many different methods used within the scope of skin rejuvenation  and skin rejuvenation.Laser skin rejuvenation is one of the effective options among these methods. Thanks to laser skin rejuvenation procedures applied with effective and innovative devices such as Erbium yag laser, it becomes possible to get rid of many problematic conditions such as the appearance of scars on the skin.   

What is Laser Skin Rejuvenation and Why is it Preferred?

It is an effective application preferred for various purposes such as laser skin rejuvenation  and skin texture improvement. In this application, the upper skin tissue is peeled off with the effect of laser beams and therefore renewed. This peeling and regeneration of the upper skin tissue has caused individuals to use laser skin rejuvenation  as wrinkle treatment and acne scar treatment. Therefore, laser skin rejuvenation treatment can be preferred for many different purposes. The reasons why laser skin treatment is preferred can be discussed under several headings. Each of these reasons is related to the effects of laser beams on the skin. 

Skin Aging and Damage

One of the main reasons for laser skin resurfacing, that is, laser resurfacing, is the aging of the skin and its destruction due to time or various external factors. Damage to the skin can cause the skin to become unhealthy, first of all, the upper layer and then the other layers of the skin. This may cause the skin to have an old and unaesthetic appearance, rather than a young and vigorous appearance. 

The Effect of Laser Energy on the Skin

One of the main reasons why laser skin rejuvenation is such a preferred application is the effect of laser energy on the skin. The most important and beneficial effect of the laser on the skin is that it peels off the epidermis, which is the outermost layer of the skin. In addition, the laser beams also heat the lower dermis layer. Peeling the top layer and warming the bottom layer helps the skin to be much healthier, vigorous and younger. For this reason, many people  prefer laser skin rejuvenation to renew their skin and get rid of conditions such as skin blemishes.

Which Skin Resurfacing Offers a Solution to Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing can offer solutions to many different skin problems. Laser skin rejuvenation procedures, especially innovative methods such as ablative laser skin rejuvenation, can provide solutions to the majority of skin problems. In particular,  thanks to technologies aimed at improving the skin, such as fronxionel laser technology, effective results can be obtained for many different skin problems, from scar appearance to skin wrinkles. Therefore, the number of problems that laser skin rejuvenation applications will offer solutions is quite high. However, the important problems that laser skin rejuvenation will provide a solution can be explained under several headings. 

Wrinkle and Fine Line Removal

One of the most disturbing problems that occur on the skin is wrinkles and fine lines. Fine lines can occur even as early as the early 20s or early 30s and can disrupt the overall appearance of the individual. The skin rejuvenation effect of the laser and the heating of the subcutaneous tissues can help to eliminate fine lines and make wrinkles much less visible. Therefore, many individuals  prefer laser skin rejuvenation as a wrinkle treatment.

Removing Acne Scars and Skin Blemishes

Acne scarring is a skin problem that is usually seen in individuals with a very weak skin barrier and occurs especially after large-sized acne. Acne scar causes the appearance of pits on the skin and prevents individuals from achieving both a smooth and healthy skin appearance. Laser skin rejuvenation application is very important in removing acne scars and removing skin blemishes due to its skin peeling effect. 

What are the Methods and Types of Laser Skin Rejuvenation?

Laser technology is a highly innovative and effective technology. The use of laser  for medical aesthetic applications has become quite common. However, there is no standard method for medical aesthetic interventions performed with laser. Laser skin rejuvenation methods differ from each other due to various factors such as the working mechanisms and effects of the devices used. Each of these methods is effective on different issues. Laser skin rejuvenation methods can be discussed in more detail under a few headings.  

Ablative Lasers (CO2, Erbium YAG) and Their Impact Areas 

Ablative laser is  an innovative technology that can be used in many treatments to solve skin problems, especially acne scar treatment. Ablative laser, also known as full ablation laser,  can have a wide range of effects by combining it with innovative and effective techniques such as CO2 laser technology. Thanks to this area of effect, it becomes possible to achieve an aesthetic appearance by getting rid of scars such as fine wrinkles or acne scars on the skin. 

Non-Ablative Lasers and Lighter Applications 

The main purpose of non-ablative lasers, that is, non-ablative lasers, is to heat the lower tissues without damaging the skin tissue. Heating of the lower tissues positively affects the skin’s ability to produce collagen. Thanks to this positive effect, collagen production increases and with the increase in collagen production, it becomes possible to get rid of problems such as wrinkles or blemishes. For this reason,  medical aesthetic applications performed with non-ablative laser are also preferred by individuals in their early 20s, that is, very young individuals, in order to prevent possible skin problems. 

Fractional Laser Technology and Its Advantages 

Fractional laser technology is a method in which laser energy is transmitted to the skin layers in a measured and balanced manner. Thanks to this method, very positive and effective results can be obtained on the skin.  Thanks to fractional laser  technology, which is widely used, it becomes possible to have a much younger and more aesthetic skin appearance. 

What is the Laser Skin Rejuvenation Application Process?

Laser skin rejuvenation is  a procedure that should be done in line with personalized plans, just like other medical aesthetic applications. Thanks to a personalized application process planning, individuals can be helped to get the results they need. For example, an individual who wants to benefit from laser stain removal  treatment may need to go through a different application process than an individual who wants to benefit from laser scar treatment. However, in general, the steps followed for laser skin rejuvenation can be discussed under several headings. 

Pre-Assessment and Personalized Treatment Plan 

The first step of any aesthetic application, including laser skin resurfacing application, should be a preliminary evaluation. Thanks to the preliminary evaluation to be made by plastic surgeons or dermatologists, it is determined whether the individual is a suitable candidate for the application. If it is understood that the individual is suitable for the application, a special application plan is made for him. This application plan is prepared in such a way that the individual will benefit from skin tone equalization and skin beautification treatments.  

Anesthesia Application and Procedure Stages

Before laser skin rejuvenation, anesthesia methods can be applied depending on the situation. If it is to be applied to a small area, the procedure can be performed without anesthesia, but if it is to be applied to the whole face, it may become necessary to benefit from local anesthesia. After anesthesia, the skin tissue is treated using a laser device. In addition to innovative laser devices, special gels can also be used during the procedure. 

Recovery Period and Care After Laser Skin Rejuvenation

The recovery period after laser skin resurfacing is a very sensitive process. Since the upper surface of the skin will begin to peel off during the healing process, there may be minimal damage and sensitivity. It is necessary to follow some care recommendations in order to keep this damage and sensitivity under control, to protect general skin health and to increase the effects of the application. Within the scope of these care recommendations, there are standard recommendations such as protecting your skin from sunlight, not using heavy skin care products and following the doctor’s recommendations. It is also very important to follow these recommendations and consult your doctor in case of possible setbacks in order to protect your general health. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Is laser scar treatment done?

Laser scar treatment can be done. Many people already prefer laser treatments for scarring. Innovative and effective laser devices peel off the top layer of the skin and heat the lower skin tissues and trigger collagen production, helping to heal the scars on the skin. For this reason, laser application is used as the most effective scar treatment method even in deep and large scars that have remained due to some surgical interventions. However, in order to perform laser scar treatment, the area must be healed, that is, it must be in good condition. 

Can laser skin resurfacing be done in summer?

Laser skin resurfacing can be done in the summer months. However, performing laser skin rejuvenation in summer is a risky situation in some ways. After the laser, the skin barrier may weaken and the skin tissue becomes more prone to blemish formation due to partial destruction or peeling in the top layer of the skin. Due to the fact that the weather is constantly sunny in the summer months, the sensitivity of the skin may cause the individual to face problems such as sunspots. For this reason, doctors generally recommend that laser skin rejuvenation be done in winter or autumn, not in summer. 

Is there a risk of permanent scarring after laser skin resurfacing?

Whether a permanent scar will occur after laser skin rejuvenation may vary depending on the situation. Under the right conditions, there is no event that will cause permanent scarring in laser skin rejuvenation procedures performed by a plastic surgeon or dermatologist who is competent in this field. However, situations such as not protecting the individual from the sun or adopting the wrong skin care products during the healing process after laser application may increase the risk of permanent scarring after the application. 

What should be considered before laser skin resurfacing?

It is very important to be sensitive about the things to be considered before laser skin rejuvenation in terms of preparing for laser application. The first thing to consider before laser skin rejuvenation is to protect the application area. Protecting the application area from damaging factors such as chemical peeling products, sun rays or extreme heat means reducing the risk of complications of the application. In addition, before laser skin resurfacing, products that strengthen the skin barrier can be used according to the situation and the doctor’s recommendations. 

What is the main difference between laser skin resurfacing and chemical peels?

The main difference between laser skin resurfacing and chemical peeling is the way they are applied. In chemical peeling application, a solution consisting of various chemicals is applied to the skin surface. With this solution, a healing and regeneration effect is seen in the dermis layer, which is usually the top layer of the skin and sometimes in the lower layer. In laser skin resurfacing, the effect of laser energy is used in the skin tissue with special devices and positive developments such as a warming effect can be led even in the lower tissues of the skin. Therefore, it is a much more effective method than chemical peeling due to its laser skin rejuvenation application method. 

Is laser skin resurfacing suitable for all skin types?

Laser skin resurfacing is not suitable for all skin types. In the case of a complicated application such as laser treatment, it may be necessary to meet candidate criteria such as the individual’s skin is not too sensitive, generally healthy and, if possible, not too dark in color. Individuals who do not meet these candidate criteria are unlikely to benefit from laser skin resurfacing procedures. However, in line with the doctor’s approval and various interventions, it becomes possible for these individuals to benefit from laser skin rejuvenation.
