The song goes "Nothing is more beautiful than the red sunset," but even on the horizon, there are inevitably some dark spots and age spots at sunset. How to make old age more beautiful? How to make elderly skin smoother? Shanghai Bida Beauty Carbon Dioxide Fractional Laser provides a satisfactory answer.
Introduction to Age Spots:
The formation of age spots is related to skin aging and sun exposure, often appearing on the backs of hands and forearms of middle-aged and elderly people. As age increases, these spots also increase in number. They are brown or black spots ranging from the size of a mung bean to an almond. Slightly raised above the skin surface, they are smooth, painless, itchy-free, and do not affect health, but should avoid sun exposure.
During the metabolic process in the human body, a substance called "free radicals" is produced, which is lipofuscin pigment. This pigment accumulates on the surface of the human body, forming age spots.
In the youth period, the human body has natural antioxidants and antioxidant enzymes. These antioxidant substances turn free radicals into inert compounds, preventing the generation of peroxidized lipids, hence no cell damage occurs. However, as age increases, the body's antioxidant function gradually declines. In old age, free radicals in the body begin to cause destruction. It is generally believed that age spots are precursors of tissue aging, indicating that cells have entered the aging stage. Lipofuscin pigments not only accumulate on the skin but also invade the internal organs. If deposited on the walls of blood vessels, it causes fibrous lesions in the blood vessels, leading to arteriosclerosis, hypertension, myocardial infarction; when accumulated in brain cells, it affects brain function, thus accelerating the aging process of the brain, and can also cause memory and intellectual disorders, depression, and even senile dementia in the elderly. The accumulation of this substance within cells will hinder normal cellular metabolism, causing overall body aging, and eventually leading to death.
Carbon Dioxide Fractional Laser: Making Old Age Beautiful
Carbon dioxide fractional laser is a new laser skin resurfacing technology. The device emits fine laser beams like hair strands in a scanning array manner, directly penetrating to the dermis layer. The thermal effect of the laser acts columnarly on tissues (not throughout the entire layer), locally heating tissues, increasing new active and temporary cell clusters, while stimulating the proliferation of collagen in tissues, promoting the reorganization of collagen.
High-energy laser beams can instantly vaporize the tissues at wrinkles or scars and emit strong signals for synthesizing collagen, promoting tissue repair. While rejuvenating the skin and removing wrinkles, large pigmented spots are blasted into dust, which is excreted with dandruff. During treatment, only the areas where the laser directly penetrates form matrix-like white dots. The surrounding skin immediately initiates lateral repair mechanisms. Within 8 hours, the epidermis will completely heal. Around 3-6 days later, the scabs on the white dots fall off, and the skin returns to its normal appearance. However, the internal collagen regeneration can last up to 6 months or longer!
Before and After Comparison of Carbon Dioxide Fractional Laser Spot Removal
Precautions After Laser Spot Removal:
1. After laser spot removal, cold compresses are needed to help reduce swelling.
2. The skin is subjected to energy point shots, so redness and swelling are normal. Sometimes after quickly removing age spots, there may be slight bleeding, but it soon fades.
3. Apply anti-inflammatory ointment daily. The wound will gradually form a scab, about a week before it peels off to become powder white. During the process of removing age spots, it is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness, patiently waiting for the scabs to fall off without forcibly peeling them.
4. Strict sun protection, otherwise the skin may instead become darker. After removing age spots, proper care is necessary to prevent recurrence.
