Minimally invasive methods of fight c manifestations of photoaging and biological decay in recent years are at the peak of popularity. And it is natural: who would want to time before you go under the knife of the surgeon, if and without such drastic measures, you can lose the excess age, without pain and without anesthesia, and c is the minimum of the period of rehabilitation.
ELOS-rejuvenation of one of the most effective and comfortable for the patient, the material of techniques to correct surface defects of the skin and clean the main signs of aging. Its action is based on an effect of light and radio frequency exposure, which provides pronounced and durable result virtually any security.
What are the differences between the new technologies of the classic photorejuvenation? Are there any contra-indications? On what results can be calculated and what amount will be paid at the full rate? TecRussia.ru and our experts experts of the main cosmetic clinics meet all of the main issues:
The abbreviation for ELOS stands for Electro-Optical Synergy. This name, of course, is not a coincidence, it indicates two types of energy used in the accomplishment of this procedure:
Initially, the methodology was designed as an innovative way of hair removal, here his action on the whole similar to the laser, but you can remove is not only dark and dense, but also bright and thin hair. But the reaction of the skin was much more interesting: after a course of procedures, it became more tonic, smoother and more hydrated, levelled and improved its color, has diminished the severity of the wrinkles, the pigmentation became more clear, disappear the vascular mesh and even acne.
electro-optical influence happens in 2 steps:
Such an institute of thermal exposure will be much more efficient and less burdensome, more isolated light. It is the fact that in the second case, the epidermis prevents the penetration of the light energy in the deeper layers of the dermis, the accumulation of heat and significantly increasing the risk of burns and hyperpigmentation. This is why the traditional photo rejuvenation (IPL) has a number of usage restrictions. The use of current can bypass this barrier and have an impact only on the target area, almost without affecting the surrounding tissue.
The experts recommend starting ELOS-rejuvenation during the onset of obvious signs of chrono - and photoaging. Usually, they are visible in the 30-40 years old, but he arrives earlier here, everything is very individual. The circle of problems, c who has done this technique, very large:
For a more modern electro-optical space programmed under the patient, on account of the color of the skin, an age-group specific aesthetic problems.
Equipment for ELOS-procedures for the launching of the company Syneron Medical LTD. Other officials of the manufacturers of the market. The model range includes brands such as E-light, e., E-max, Aurora and a few others. Moreover, for the patient is not so important to know what device costs to the clinic, because they differ only by a set of nozzles, c is that you can work with.
Before the start of the course, you will need to prepare the skin to the heat. To do this, in a period of 2 weeks, it will be necessary to:
3-4 days before the session are added to the restrictions on the shares, irritants to the skin: it is impossible to bathe in a bath of a sauna, taking a hot bath, do the cleaning of the face, use scrubs, etc
In all the nozzles for ELOS devices there are filters, which attenuates the brightness of the flash, so that the surface temperature of the skin exceeds the normal is not more than 5 to 10 degrees. During treatment, patients do not feel pain: can feel a slight tingling sensation and warmth, which is virtually nobody finds uncomfortable. An exception is the withdrawal vascular grid on the locations of the most sensitive of the face, for example, the wings of the nose: csclerosing will be painful, even in the safest modes of treatment.Before you begin this procedure, the doctor cleans the skin of all impurities and the covers of his strike gel and the eye of the patient closes the special protective goggles. Itself, the session takes 30 to 120 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated and the nature of dermatological problems. Thus, for people quite 40-45 minutes, and here is the work in the complex face-neck-neckline will already not less than 1.5 hours.
Standard course of ELOS-rejuvenation consists of 4-6 procedures, c) at intervals of 1-1,5 months (such a long interval is needed for recovery of the epidermis, but also for the manifestations of the effect of the temperature in the deeper layers of the dermis). A positive change is possible to see in a few weeks, after the first session. Moreover, some improvement of complexion and texture of the skin, lifting and tightening of the pores occur in a few days. While that continues, the result obtained on 1.5-2 years.
If, in addition to rejuvenation, you must also eliminate skin imperfections (stretch marks, scars, pigmentation spots, vascular education), it is necessary to connect on a more long wait.
As well, the pigmentation is brighter, not before 3 to 4 weeks after the start of treatment and vascular grid begins to disappear only after 8 to 10 weeks.
The holding of ELOS-procedures is excluded in the presence of one or more factors:contraindications, complications and side effects
The main side effects, which marks a significant part of the patients minor swelling and redness of the treated area, which in 2-3 days, disappear of themselves. More serious problems occur when the violation of the beautician the basics of the procedure:
In these cases, the risk of burns, bruising, redness, rubtsovie and other of the deformation of the skin, correcting what is sometimes quite difficult. To avoid these complications is simple, it only takes a responsible attitude to the choice of the cosmetology and clinic.
With respect to the other in a certain extent, innovative methodologies, there are still some doubts as to the safety. In particular, it has been suggested that the exposure of the skin to the light cause melanoma and malignization of other tumors. This is valid for the activities of ultraviolet radiation, but in the electro-optical devices used of the infrared light, therefore, none of these procedures c oncology specialists completely deny it.
Main characteristics and the misconceptions about electro-optical rejuvenation. Said dr. Ivanov Gi N.
ELOS itself does not cause cancer of the skin, is safe for the aesthetician, Irina Ivanova of the clinical DoctorPlastic If in the area of treatment of tumors, of course, bypass. And I advise patients to check in advance that they are not malignant. Oncology is a contra-indication for any material proceedings, as well as the impact that may result from the acceleration of the development of the tumor. However, if the cancer is not, ELOS, it will not cause!
Rates on the session will be a function of the surface area of the target area and the aesthetic problems of the patient want to solve. Also, the value of the age of the equipment used, the qualification of a specialist, the pricing policy of the clinic. Average price for 1 session of ELOS-rejuvenation in Moscow are:
