Is it necessary to use a medical mask after photorejuvenation? How to replenish water after photorejuvenation?

Photorejuvenation is a very popular medical beauty project. Many people who love beauty have undergone photorejuvenation. The skin will be a little dry after photorejuvenation. Everyone must remember to strengthen hydration and pay attention to postoperative care.

It is best to start applying a mask one week after photorejuvenation. It is best to use a medical mask, which has simpler ingredients and is less irritating to the skin. After photorejuvenation, the skin may be irritated. Scabs will begin to form on the skin in 3 to 5 days, and the scabs will gradually fall off in about 5 to 7 days. It is better to start applying a mask after the scabs fall off. If you apply a mask when the scabs form, the ingredients of the mask may affect the normal recovery of the skin. Photorejuvenation is non-stripping, and the skin will not be damaged, so there will be no scabs. You can use a medical mask directly after photorejuvenation. Photorejuvenation uses the photochemical effect generated by the strong pulsed photons of the photorejuvenation instrument to stimulate the skin, so that the molecular structure of the collagen fibers and elastic fibers in the dermis will undergo chemical changes, restore the elasticity of the skin, eliminate wrinkles and shrink pores. The photothermal effect produced during photorejuvenation can enhance the function of blood vessels and improve the microcirculation of the skin, so you must pay attention to sun protection after the operation. You need to apply sunscreen every day, or wear a hat or use a parasol. Pay attention to sun protection when doing photorejuvenation in summer. After photorejuvenation, avoid using hot water for the first few days. If the skin is damaged, do not wash your face directly. You can use a cotton swab dipped in water to slowly clean it.

1. Strengthen hydration and skin barrier repair. It is recommended to use a sterile medical mask to calm and moisturize the skin first, and then start using daily skin care products after 3 days. Skin care products are recommended to use a repairing and occlusive cream to enhance moisturizing. When choosing ingredients, try to choose products that do not contain fragrance, preservatives, emulsifiers, or mineral oil.

2. Sun protection is the top priority. It is best to use sunscreen with SPF 30 to 50 or above, and do physical sun protection when going out, such as holding an umbrella. The precautions after photorejuvenation should be clearly understood before the operation, so that the postoperative care can be more in place and the harm of photorejuvenation can be effectively avoided.

3. Avoid using irritating skin care products within one week after treatment, such as those containing fruit acid, A acid, high concentration of vitamin C, salicylic acid, alcohol, etc.

4. Three days after the operation, a shallow scab may form on the skin, and the skin will feel rough when touched. Be careful to avoid scrubbing the scab, and the scab should fall off on its own.

Photorejuvenation is a medical cosmetic treatment that uses strong pulsed photons to produce photochemical effects to improve the skin. It directly irradiates the skin surface and penetrates deep into the skin. In addition, when photorejuvenation achieves the effects of removing spots and acne marks, it uses the principle of photothermal decomposition, that is, the temperature of pigment deposits is higher than that of the surrounding skin after absorbing light, and the temperature difference is used to break and decompose the pigments and eliminate pigment deposits. Photorejuvenation is actually a cosmetic treatment for babies' skin with relatively strong pulsed light. It can effectively remove spots and wrinkles, enhance skin elasticity, improve facial capillary dilation, pore size and rough skin, and improve yellow skin. It is difficult to determine a specific maintenance time for this skin project because everyone's skin foundation is different, and it is related to daily skin care, daily routine, sun protection, etc. Some people have reported that their skin has turned black after photorejuvenation, which is caused by insufficient postoperative repair and sun protection.

1. Not paying attention to hydration

Photorejuvenation uses the principle of photothermolysis to achieve the effects of removing spots and acne marks. That is, the temperature of the pigment deposits is higher than that of the surrounding skin after absorbing light, and the temperature difference is used to break and decompose the pigments and eliminate the pigment deposits. Due to a series of reasons such as strong stimulation of the skin, accelerated skin metabolism, increased local skin temperature, and weakened protective function of the sebum membrane, the skin will become dehydrated and dry. Therefore, after the treatment, you must replenish water in large quantities to soothe and calm the skin. Otherwise, not only will the expected skin beauty effect not be achieved, but the skin will become dry and sensitive.

2. Not paying attention to sun protection

During photorejuvenation treatment, although the skin generally does not appear to be damaged, the stratum corneum, sebum membrane and other tissues will be damaged to some extent by photons, thus affecting the skin's barrier, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory and sunscreen functions. However, don't worry too much when you hear "damage". Only after "destruction" can there be "reconstruction". It is precisely because of this damage that the skin's self-repair mechanism is promoted, making it firm and tender.

3. Not following the course of treatment

Not following the doctor's orders to carry out the treatment regularly - this is a mistake many people make when doing photorejuvenation, or even similar laser skin care. Therefore, many people find that the effect is not obvious after trying photorejuvenation for the first time, so they do not continue the treatment.
