The Italian method of skin rejuvenation, based on the use of laser exposure, has received many admirers all over the world because of its effectiveness and long-term preservation of results. The purpose of this article is to show readers what this procedure is, how it works, what are its advantages, what effects can be achieved and what complications are possible.
The essence of the method
Laser skin rejuvenation or dermal optical thermolysis is performed using a device called SmartXide DOT, which is why the procedure is called DOT rejuvenation.
The laser beam has a targeted and dosed thermal effect, leaving the surrounding tissues intact.
The technology of this technique is based on the thermal and histochemical effect of photothermolysis. During the manipulation, water is applied together with the use of a microbeam laser, as a result of which the skin cells quickly heat up to 95 degrees. In this case, the damaged protein compositions of the treated dermal tissue are deposited and clot, and the excess fluid accumulated in the problem areas along with the toxins and the destroyed cells is excreted.
DOT renewal is compared to the production of heat shock, evenly distributed throughout all skin tissue cells, followed by activation of enzymes that destroy damaged cell structures, provoking a premature aging process.
To achieve the maximum effect, all parameters and duration of laser exposure are selected individually for each patient.
When the procedure is recommended
The technique allows in a very short time to eliminate the main signs of fading of the skin surface, namely:
- enlarged pores;
- manifestations of ptosis (age-related skin loss);
- pigmentation of various kinds;
- cicatricial deformities and heterogeneity of skin relief;
- vascular "stars";
- loss of elasticity;
- wrinkles of varying severity (from shallow to deep grooves).
In which cases the technique is contraindicated
Unfortunately, not every woman will be able to undergo this well-known anti-aging procedure, as dermatologists do not recommend it for:
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- various epidermal diseases (eczema, seborrhea, rosacea and others);
- acute phase of herpes;
- mental disorders;
- dermatosis in the acute phase;
- oncological processes in the body;
- a period of strong solar activity;
- tendency to hyperpigmentation.
What are the benefits of manipulation
DOT rejuvenation is considered a gentle and safe procedure that can restore the surface of the skin and damaged tissues during aging, restoring the lost appearance and aesthetic pull of the epidermis.
A major advantage of the technique is the ability to adjust the depth of laser point penetration and the number of micro-areas of skin tissue destroyed, depending on the layers of the dermis that need to be restored.
Device readings are controlled by a unique scanner that provides adjustment:
- areas and individual areas of the epidermis that require correction;
- length of electrical pulses;
- concentration and density of leather processing (excluding gaps);
- selection of the required regimen for each patient individually;
- skin microtraumas (without overlapping them).
During manipulation, only 25% of the skin surface is damaged, due to which the epidermis regenerates several times faster.
The main advantages of the procedure are:
- a session conducted under the supervision of an experienced specialist, which in most cases is sufficient to obtain the desired result;
- long-term preservation of the effects obtained;
- the possibility of performing the procedure on any skin, including thinning and hypersensitivity.
This technique helps to achieve not only a cosmetic effect, but also a remedy, ensuring the delivery of the medication to the deeper layers of the skin structure. Manipulation facilitates, inter alia, dyschromia, and also significantly reduces the severity of atrophic scar formations.
What results can be achieved
One month after undergoing the DOT renewal procedure, you may see the following results:
- complete renewal of the upper and deep layers of skin tissue, which is manifested in a change in the appearance and quality of the epidermis;
- an increase in skin tone and elasticity as a result of increased production of its collagen fibers;
- complete elimination of age spots and brightening of melasma resulting from hormonal dysfunction;
- approximation of the relief and color of the skin surface;
- the appearance of new, healthy tissue in places and areas with sores, sores.
Possible complications after manipulation
Along with a large number of positive results on the skin, side effects can appear in the form of:
- slight redness and slight irritation in the treatment areas;
- activation of the herpes virus in persons predisposed to this infection;
- swelling followed by crust formation.
Be sure to follow all the recommendations and recommendations of the beautician who performed the procedure in order to significantly reduce, and in some cases, avoid any side effects!
When deciding on such a technique, you should understand that the success and effectiveness of the manipulation will depend almost entirely on the qualifications, experience, knowledge of the clinician where you applied, so approach this issue responsibly and make sure to check the availability ofproper documentation from your chosen specialist!
Keep in mind that the maximum result after DOT renewal will appear in six months and will remain unchanged for 2 - 2. 5 years.
In conclusion, I would like to advise any woman who wants to experience such a rejuvenation technique on herself to read the reviews of patients who have undergone this manipulation!
