Medical beauty review | Photorejuvenation, breaking away from the "energy theory"

Photorejuvenation is favored by the medical beauty community because of its non-invasiveness, comfort, effectiveness and wide application. In clinical practice, patients often ask to increase parameters because they feel that the energy is too low. So, is the effect of photorejuvenation proportional to the energy level? Let's discuss it together:


What is photorejuvenation?


Photon rejuvenation, also known as intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment, works on the principle of multi-wavelength selective absorption to produce photothermal effect, thereby achieving a variety of skin rejuvenation effects. Intense pulsed light therapy uses high-intensity pulsed light to irradiate the skin, promote pigment metabolism, promote skin metabolism, and activate skin repair mechanisms, promote the proliferation and rearrangement of collagen fibers and elastic fibers, and close abnormally dilated capillaries, thereby achieving the purpose of skin rejuvenation, improving photoaging, removing spots, and removing red blood streaks.

 


What problems can photorejuvenation solve?


Photorejuvenation is a non-invasive skin medical beauty treatment that can improve a variety of skin problems through intense pulsed light (IPL) technology. It is mainly applicable to the following types of problems:


1. Pigmentation problems:Photorejuvenation can decompose the pigment particles in the skin, help remove spots and brighten the skin tone. It is suitable for superficial spots such as freckles and sun spots.


2. Vascular problems:For vascular problems such as facial capillary dilation and red blood streaks, photorejuvenation can produce photothermal effects, which are transmitted to the vascular endothelial cells, allowing the dilated capillaries to gradually close and improve the problem of skin redness.


3. Reduce fine lines and wrinkles:Photorejuvenation can stimulate the rearrangement of collagen and elastic fibers deep in the skin, thereby improving fine lines, delicate pores, etc., helping to restore skin elasticity and delay aging.


4. Acne and acne marks:Photorejuvenation also has a certain therapeutic effect on acne, acne marks, etc., and can reduce inflammation and improve skin redness and swelling and skin problems caused by acne.


Photorejuvenation effect VS energy


In photorejuvenation treatment, the precise adjustment of energy value is crucial. If the energy setting is too low, the treatment may not stimulate enough skin response, resulting in insignificant effect. However, if the energy value is set too high, it may be too intense for some skin types, which may not only affect the final treatment effect, but also cause unnecessary damage to the skin.


Especially for already fragile skin conditions such as melasma or sensitive skin, too high energy may cause further damage to the skin and may even cause pigmentation to deepen or exacerbate inflammatory response.


It is worth noting that different skin conditions have different treatment endpoint responses when receiving photorejuvenation treatment. For example, when treating acne or acne scars, the ideal treatment response may be that black acne scars turn red and red acne scars darken in color. This is because melanin and hemoglobin in the skin selectively absorb specific wavelengths of light and are subsequently destroyed. When treating pigmentation, the treatment response may be a temporary deepening of the spot color, and light freckles may turn dark brown, and there may be slight edema around them.


The most basic effect of photorejuvenation is to improve the skin texture. If the treatment is done properly, the skin will appear brighter, more delicate and transparent after the treatment.


In order to ensure the treatment effect and minimize the side effects, the treatment must be based on the specific conditions of the skin, and the treatment must be based on the different skin needs to achieve a personalized treatment plan.

·Conclusion·


1. Energy selection should be based on individual skin characteristics and indications, rather than simply pursuing high energy.

2. During the treatment, a spot test should be performed and the reaction should be closely monitored so that the parameters can be adjusted in time to prevent adverse reactions.

3. Through multiple treatments, the effects can be accumulated to compensate for the lack of effect that may be caused by lower energy.
