Photorejuvenation is an effective transformation!

Man has no control over time, but we so want to prolong moments of youth and protect ourselves from premature aging. In the fight against aging, we spend most of our energy on keeping our skin youthful. After all, it is she who first reveals our age.

Unfortunately, after 25 years, our skin begins to age, its color, texture, relief change, the first wrinkles, age spots, and spider veins appear. This natural, complex aging process is exacerbated by various external factors. In particular, thanks to solar activity, we are all subject to photoaging. Unfortunately, the sun gives us not only pleasure and a beautiful tan, but also a whole series of skin problems. It is ultraviolet radiation that causes its premature withering, as well as the appearance of pigmentation and vascular formations. The Palomar Star Lux 500 laser system with the Lux G attachment is designed to eliminate them.

Laser photorejuvenation of the face using a Palomar device with a Lux G attachment is considered one of the most effective ways to combat photoaging. Having a double effect, they allow you to quickly, safely and painlessly get rid of most aesthetic skin problems associated with photoaging and various vascular pathologies. Firstly, they allow you to get rid of vascular patterns and age spots. And secondly, they affect collagen, increasing skin elasticity and restoring its healthy glow. This double effect is possible thanks to the characteristics of pulsed light. It simultaneously stimulates neocollagenesis and selectively, without damaging the top layer of skin, affects dilated blood vessels or pigment accumulations.

Photoepilation.

Photoepilation is the most progressive and radical method of hair removal under the influence of high-pulse light. In our center, photoepilation is performed on a Palomar StarLux device using Lux R (for dark hair) and Lux ​​Y (for light hair) attachments.

Today Palomar hair removal is the most powerful hair removal of all existing systems. With each subsequent procedure, the hair will become thinner and there will be less of it until it disappears completely. Thanks to its maximum permissible power, Palomar completely deprives hair follicles of viability in 5-6 procedures.

This system is the most effective, safe and comfortable way to eliminate excess or unwanted hair, since Palomar technology allows you to cut off “harmful” areas of the light beam that lead to overheating and tissue burns. CoolingSM™ active contact cooling makes the procedure safer and more comfortable for the patient. Unlike other systems where the skin is cooled before the pulse, Palomar IPL tips cool the contact before, during and after the pulse - that is, constantly.

This allows greater energy to be used virtually painlessly and safely for the patient. Palomar photoepilation is a combination of maximum permissible power, painlessness and safety. In the shortest possible time, without the risk of burns and hyperpigmentation, you will become the owner of smooth and delicate skin without unwanted hair.

Indications for photorejuvenation and pigmentation removal:

• hyperpigmentation, freckles, complex age spots
• uneven complexion
• skin aging: loss of elasticity and decreased tone, fine wrinkles
• enlarged pores
• spider veins/telangiectasia
• erythema after laser resurfacing
• rosacea, port-wine stains, rosacea, angiomas, redness

The course usually consists of only 3-6 short (15-20 minutes) and comfortable sessions.

The effect of facial photorejuvenation using the Palomar system is noticeable after the first procedure - revitalized, smooth and elastic, radiant skin without a single blemish, fresh complexion.

At the same time, you will not only get rid of defects, but also prevent skin aging by naturally stimulating its renewal:

• skin texture improves,
• its relief is leveled
• skin “glows”
• Spider veins and pigment spots disappear
• the problem of hyperpigmentation is solved.

About the technique

Palomar was invented and patented in the USA by Palomar Medical Technologies, a leader in the field of laser medicine.

This technique solves many aesthetic problems and is called the “gold standard” due to its effective fight against age-related changes.

The procedure uses a special device with infrared radiation or fractional laser. This device makes it possible to rejuvenate without surgery. At the same time, the effect is noticeable very quickly, and the rehabilitation period is almost non-existent.

The very first clinic in our country that decided to use this technique was “MediEsthetik” in St. Petersburg.

To date, similar procedures do not exist.

Secrets of success in photorejuvenation of facial skin using the Palomar StarLux 500 device

• High efficiency is achieved due to the maximum possible power of exposure to pulsed light.
• No burns or complications: a special double wave filtration system ensures targeted energy absorption exclusively by melanin or dilated vessels. In this case, other skin structures are not involved in the process.
• Safety and comfort. A perfect contact cooling system ensures painlessness throughout the entire procedure. During the procedure, the skin is not damaged, as a result of which there is no rehabilitation period.
• Simultaneous elimination of various unwanted skin formations.
• Long-term cumulative result of rejuvenation.
• Saving time and money. Since after the first session there is a visible reduction in signs of aging, the course number of procedures is reduced to a minimum. To consolidate the result, it is necessary to carry out a course of 3-6 procedures with an interval of 3 weeks.

Thermolifting Palomar Lux Deep IR (infrared rejuvenation).

Deep thermolifting is an advanced rejuvenation technique that gives excellent results in non-surgical, non-surgical skin tightening on the face and body.

Indications. • Flabbiness and sagging skin (ptosis): elimination of the “double” chin, tightening of the cheeks and cheekbones (jowls), lower face and neck. • Withering of the skin: restoration of firmness and elasticity to the skin. • Wrinkles: smoothing of nasolabial folds. • “Bags” under the eyes: tightening of the skin around the eyes. • Correction of problem areas: inner and back thighs, inner shoulders, knees, buttocks, abdomen after childbirth, after liposuction and sudden weight loss.

Contraindications to the thermolifting procedure. • Benign and malignant neoplasms in the treatment area. • Presence of a pacemaker or other internal defibrillators. • Dermatoses in the area of ​​the procedure. • Acute infectious diseases. • Chronic diseases in the stage of decompensation. • Pregnancy, lactation. • Presence of metal implants in the treatment area. • Oncology.

When carrying out the thermolifting procedure on the Palomar StarLux 500 device, the Deep IR nozzle is used. The impact is carried out with high-intensity fractional infrared light in the form of a grid of rays. The Lux Deep IR attachment allows powerful laser energy to penetrate into the deep layers of the skin, to a depth of 4 to 7 mm.

Advantages of thermolifting.

The procedure is highly effective and lasting results. Over the next 3–6 months after the procedure, the effect of thermolifting increases. Palomar's unique patented cooling system ensures maximum laser energy is used safely and painlessly. The Lux Deep IR nozzle is equipped with a special sensor that “turns on” the laser pulse only after the working surface of the nozzle is in full contact with the skin. Infrared deep thermal lifting using the Palomar device is used with equal success on almost any area of ​​the face and body: shoulders, arms, legs, hips, buttocks, abdomen.

Methodology. The controlled exposure to an infrared pulse produces deep coagulation of microzones in the tissues of the treated area. As a result, collagen-elastin fibers are compacted and contracted, and then new structured collagen is formed in the treated area. When the Deep IR attachment works, it has a stimulating effect on connective tissue cells, the so-called fibroblasts. These cells synthesize and produce collagen and elastin, which give the skin strength, elasticity and the ability to recover from any deformation. The thermal effect of the laser on the deep layers of the skin also improves blood circulation, lymph flow and metabolism. In the affected area, the body begins active recovery processes.

Procedure.

A preliminary consultation with a cosmetologist is required. For each patient, the doctor selects a certain number of procedures and the optimal power of exposure, depending on the condition of the skin and subcutaneous fat, skin type and other individual characteristics. The Deep IR attachment for deep thermal lifting allows you to adjust the pulse duration and the level of energy delivered. The selection of the optimal strength of the laser effect occurs directly during the procedure and depends on the characteristics of the patient’s skin, the nature of the problem being solved, as well as the area of ​​the treated area. On average, a thermolifting course consists of 3-5 procedures, with an interval of 2-3 weeks. The duration of one procedure is from 15 to 30 minutes. The procedure is practically painless and does not require special rehabilitation.
