Laser procedures

The photo-fractional laser rejuvenation so called Photofabulous procedure combines the effects of two effective lasers: IPL photo-rejuvenation, and ResurFX™ fractional laser resurfacing. This holistic skin rejuvenation procedure has the potential to deliver remarkable results with a single treatment to address a range of skin concerns, such as pigmentation spots, fine lines, acne scars, and uneven skin texture and tone.

The IPL technology removes unwanted pigmentation and blood vessel lesions from the skin, while the ResurFX™ fractional laser stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin fibres in the deeper layers of the skin. The production of new collagen results in smoother, brighter and more youthful skin.

What are the contraindications for the procedure?

• Oncological diseases, epilepsy, melasma, keloid scars and active inflammations, including herpes

Contraindications are relative and the final decision on the procedure is made by the specialist during the personal examination and consultation before the treatment.

What should you take into consideration before and after the procedure?

• Alcohol consumption is not recommended for one day before and after the procedure.
• Avoid sunbathing (including the solarium) for two weeks before and after the procedure.
• Skin redness, flushing and swelling may occur after the procedure. You can use a cold compress (only from the fridge, not from the freezer) to reduce the sensation of flushing and burning, and antihistamines to reduce swelling (over-the-counter at the pharmacy: Zyrtec, Claritin).
• Do not use make-up for 24 hours after the procedure.
• Avoid going to the sauna and swimming pool for two weeks after the procedure.
• Avoid active sports for two weeks after the procedure.
• After the procedure, apply the recommended skincare cream every four hours for the first three days, then two times a day for two weeks or as recommended by a specialist. Use a bandage or plaster, if necessary.
• Apply SPF50 sunscreen for two months after the procedure to prevent pigmentation. To extend the results of the treatment, use sunscreen all year round.

We recommend that you consult a laser treatment specialist before the procedure to assess its suitability. During the consultation, a specialist will carry out a thorough analysis of your face, evaluate the possible results, explain everything related to the treatment and give instructions for proper aftercare at home.
