Photorejuvenation is a great option to improve the appearance of your skin. Photorejuvenation treatment is a non-surgical procedure used to treat acne scars, sun damage, and fine lines and wrinkles. It can also be used to improve skin texture and tone. Considering this treatment? Here’s everything you need to know about photorejuvenation.
Photorejuvenation is a non-surgical procedure that uses lasers to improve the appearance of the skin. The laser or light energy (IPL) used stimulates the production of collagen beneath the surface of the skin. To do this, the laser creates controlled microscopic burns on a targeted area. After a period of twelve weeks, the skin regenerates itself to create new collagen formation. Collagen is a protein naturally produced by the skin. Collagen is responsible for maintaining the elasticity and firmness of the skin. As we age, collagen production decreases, which contributes to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Thus, during photorejuvenation treatment, stimulating collagen production helps treat, correct and improve the texture and pigmentation of the skin.
Photorejuvenation uses lasers to improve the appearance of the skin. By stimulating the renewal of skin cells, it is possible to improve the texture and pigmentation of the skin. This treatment can be used to treat sun damage, skin pigmentation, wrinkles, etc. Photorejuvenation treatments are usually performed on areas of the face. However, it is also possible to treat other areas of the body with photorejuvenation. Specifically, photorejuvenation is often used to treat:

Photorejuvenation is a painless treatment. The patient may experience a slight tingling sensation in the treated area, but the treatment is completely tolerable without anesthesia.
There are no known long-term side effects for photorejuvenation. The risk of side effects is low, but they depend on the patient’s skin type, condition and how they respond to the treatment. Some medications can cause photosensitivity. Before starting a photorejuvenation treatment, ESME Esthétique will ensure that you are not likely to develop this side effect.
Throughout and more specifically directly after a photorejuvenation treatment, exposure to the sun is strongly discouraged. The patient must protect these treated areas from the sun by covering them or applying SPF50+ sunscreen. This is also why it is recommended to carry out photorejuvenation treatments between October and May.
In addition, photorejuvenation cannot be performed on tanned or black skin, pregnant women and breastfeeding women. For the safety of the patient, during the photorejuvenation treatment, he cannot have skin lesions or infections.
