Considered by U.S. doctors as the main weapon to counter the years go by, the laser is rise to the role of the new frontier of beauty. The reasons are in the minimally invasive treatment and results, and provided upstream there is a super expert hand to move it. The data recorded by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) speak of a doubling of assistance for laser skin resurfacing in the last eight years in the U.S.: the treatment increased from 170,951 in 2000 to 347,255 in 2007, an increase of 103% . In the only recent year available, the increased demand has exceeded 30% over the previous twelve months. A trend that is also recorded in Italy, albeit with more modest numbers. Interest has grown thanks to the technology in more than 40 years (the carbon dioxide laser was indeed invented in 1964) has made great strides. "With the CO2 laser generation, coupled with a digital scanner is possible to make a gradual peeling of the skin, continuing a normal life, "says Dr. Sofia Zafiropoulou specializes in Laser Medicine and medical director of the Medical Center Turati of Milan, in Italy the first to introduce laser technology in the mid-year nineties. "The energy that is applied in fact a time less than 90 ms, and this prevents heating of the underlying tissues. The fact remains that part of the electromagnetic energy emitted by the laser can pass deep into the skin, causing an activation of synthesis of elastin and collagen. "
The technique is based on a scanning system that allows you to create a injuries to the skin with the scanner, the laser beam is distributed in a fractional without damaging the skin, but on the contrary, "stimulating a regeneration," points out Dr. Zafiropoulou. So in about half an hour of treatment you can "lose" up to ten years and also remove from the face for signs of stress, improper diet, smoking and even pollution. "As is confirmed by a large U.S. clinical documentation, the synthesis of elastin and collagen continues for about 8 months, thus ensuring the stabilization of the results for at least three years," continues Dr. Zafiropoulou. A real lift face for which they are required, however, the application of sunscreen and a check two days after surgery, but you can immediately return to normal daily life but ensures that no sun exposure on a continuous and direct for at least a month.
"With this method it is possible to work even on deep wrinkles, maybe two or three times repeating the passage of the laser," he continues. "You can eliminate unsightly situation that otherwise could hardly be removed: we speak of skin blemishes, skin fibromas, xanthelasma (better known as grains of millet), seborrheic warts, sebaceous cyst, and hypertrophic scars. These treatments are carried out using a pulse frequency between 1 and 2,000 Hz, which allows removal of the imperfection in thin layers, extremely precise. This allows you to work even on genital warts. "
The cost of treatment from 700 €.
