What does the treatment look like?
Laser skin rejuvenation treatment for the patient’s comfort is performed under local anesthesia using lidocaine cream. The therapy is based on fully controlled damage and remodeling of the skin cells. In this way, the skin structure is regenerated. New cells support the process of tissue reconstruction as well as accelerate the production of collagen and elastin fibers.
The duration of treatment
The treatment lasts from 30 to 60 minutes.
The period of convalescence

The recovery time does not exceed 7 days and is dependent on the extent to which the skin has been damaged and this depends on the therapeutic indications. The healing process usually lasts less than 4 weeks. After the treatment, it is important to properly skin care in accordance with the doctor’s instructions. In the postoperative period it is not recommended to tan your skin.
