Phototherapy Quantum IPL Skin rejuvenation 6 clinics in Moscow

Selective pulsed phototherapy using IPL technology is based on the selective impact on biological tissues with intense pulsed light in the wavelength range from 550 to 1200 nm, which allows selectively, without damaging the skin and surrounding tissues, to act on pigments, vascular lesions, inflammatory elements (acne, acne rash) and others, causing an increase in the temperature of chromophores (substances that can absorb light) and the elimination of pathology.

The phototherapy machine has several different programs to treat three main problems.

Removing age spots on the face and body

Selective absorption of light by melanin (the dark pigment of the skin) and its destruction leads to the removal of hyperpigmentation. First, the pigment spot darkens, and then over the course of a week it peels off and evens out the skin color. The result is visible after the first procedure.

Quantum IPL rejuvenation and phototherapy technique

Using the Quantum Ipl device, specialists perform a safe and fast photorejuvenation procedure that does not require rehabilitation, which has become very popular due to the high efficiency of skin renewal and elimination of defects without damaging it.

The uniqueness of the procedure is that the effect of light waves of different lengths on the deepest layers of the skin activates their regeneration

Cosmetology offers many methods of facial skin rejuvenation: from simple cosmetics to plastic surgery. However, experts in this field were constantly looking for a way that could radically improve the condition of the skin without the risk of complications, and so that a person would not have to change his usual rhythm of life, even for a while. It is worth noting that many of the rejuvenation methods used are aimed at eliminating one problem and lead to long-term recovery, pain, and cause side effects.

Skin aging is a fairly broad concept. This is not just a decrease in tone and the appearance of wrinkles, but also many other factors: pigmentation, enlarged pores, grayish color or excessive redness. All this can greatly affect a person’s appearance, regardless of a person’s health status and age.

Photorejuvenation is a unique method that renews the skin, “erasing” its defects without destroying the surface.

This is the latest technology that renews cells without surgical interventions. The deep impact of a powerful light pulse beam of a certain wave on problematic skin formations and collagen fibers is the essence of the procedure. Thanks to this, you can not only remove vascular lesions and age spots, but also stimulate the synthesis of collagen fibers, which makes the skin tightened and youthful.

The effect of facial photorejuvenation lasts as long as possible, and it can only be compared with the result of lifting (tightening).

The Rednor Clinic carries out photorejuvenation procedures at the highest professional level, using innovative technologies and advanced equipment.

QUANTUM is a unique device, a high-intensity light source that can simultaneously cure many skin defects. This happens as follows: a gel is applied to the skin, special dark glasses are put on the eyes, and then light pulses are applied to the skin with a smooth tip. During the QUANTUM photorejuvenation procedure, sensations are minimal, since a special cooling system of the tip affects the skin. Only a slight tingling sensation is felt. The procedure lasts approximately half an hour.

How many sessions will it take?

How many procedures need to be done to get long-lasting results depends on the condition of the skin. Typically the course includes several sessions and takes about six months. Photorejuvenation after the first session improves skin tone and makes it softer. You can see a clear cosmetic effect after the third procedure. If you carry out the course, you can gradually noticeably improve the condition of your skin.

Photorejuvenation: contraindications

Contraindications for the photorejuvenation procedure: photodermatoses, malignant diseases, severe hypertension, pregnancy, eye diseases. The procedure is not recommended for people with very tanned or dark skin.

Attention: after the session you should not use products containing alcohol. It is also necessary to avoid artificial tanning for three to four weeks after the photorejuvenation procedure.

Combination with other cosmetic procedures

Photorejuvenation goes well with and also enhances the effect of cosmetic procedures, including mesotherapy, microcrystalline dermabrasion, and chemical peeling. It is done not only for the skin of the face, but also for the whole body - arms, back, abdomen.

Our centers in Moscow employ highly qualified specialists who provide services in accordance with international standards.

Phototherapy of acne, phototherapy of acne (pimples)

Phototherapy is ideal for treating not only small pustular rashes, but also internal, deep-seated conglobate acne (nodes). It has anti-inflammatory, absorbable and bactericidal effects. The energy of the light pulse is absorbed by the metabolic product of propionobacteria P.acne, which leads to their destruction and, consequently, to the elimination of the source of inflammation. Phototherapy is ideal in the treatment of rosacea (rosacea). The result of the procedure is noticeable after a few days - the number of acne is significantly reduced, pores are reduced, and the oiliness of the skin is reduced.

A course of treatment is recommended at intervals of 1-2 times a week. On average, the course is 5-7 procedures. Phototherapy is not combined with the simultaneous use of photosensitizing agents (roaccutane and other retinoids, tetracyclines, etc.) Therefore, in the combined treatment of acne, consultation and observation of a dermatologist is required. In our center, phototherapy procedures are performed only under the supervision of a physician.

*Cost varies depending on the number of flashes.

Contraindications

Phototherapy is a medical procedure that has a serious effect on the patient, so this method of treatment is not suitable for everyone. Contraindications are:

• oncological diseases;
• tuberculosis;
• period of exacerbation of chronic pathologies;
• high photosensitivity of the skin, photodermatosis;
• connective tissue diseases;
• eye diseases that increase their sensitivity to light;
• some mental disorders;
• diabetes;
• skin tendency to form scars;
• pacemaker;
• blood clotting disorders;
• severe damage to the skin in the intended area of ​​influence;
• the period of bearing and breastfeeding a child.

Phototherapy sessions should not be performed if the patient is taking medications or certain herbal remedies that can cause photosensitivity.

It is not recommended to use this method of treatment if the patient has certain diseases of the blood system or endocrine pathologies. In such cases, you should consult your doctor before using phototherapy.

Phototherapy for removal of blood vessels and treatment of rosacea

The essence of the phototherapy method is that pulsed light is absorbed by the chromophore hemoglobin. There is a sharp increase in temperature inside the vessel, which leads to its coagulation, or “sticking together.” In this case, the vessels disappear without a trace. However, only vessels of small diameter are removed. Therefore, phototherapy is ideal for the treatment of rosacea, when tiny dilated capillaries create a general redness of the cheeks (the so-called pathological blush), while individual vessels are not visible to the naked eye. Laser treatment is used to remove larger vessels and spider veins. In Medical-Aesthetic, the latest laser system Harmony XL (Israel) is used. You can refer to the corresponding section of the site in the “Useful Links” menu for more information.

*Cost varies depending on the number of flashes.

Efficiency of the procedure

Phototherapy is a safe method, provided that the sessions are carried out by a dermatologist or cosmetologist in a clinic or other medical institution using special equipment. Light has an immunomodulatory and disinfecting effect on the skin and triggers the process of cell regeneration.

The phototherapy method does not involve the use of a solarium, quartz lamps, or direct sunlight. Beta ultraviolet radiation emitted by the sun and solarium lamps thickens the stratum corneum of the skin and causes pigmentation. This is a rather aggressive effect that accelerates aging and can provoke cancer. Phototherapy equipment uses alpha ultraviolet light, which is safe and even beneficial for the skin.

The benefits of phototherapy include:

• visible improvements after the first session;
• safety and comfort of procedures;
• high efficiency rate: phototherapy helps 75-80% of patients.

The procedure has the following effects:

• reduces the intensity of inflammatory processes;
• increases the production of vitamin D in the body;
• small vessels are coagulated and large ones are reduced, which makes it possible to remove the rosacea mesh;
• increases the skin's resistance to the action of pathogenic microflora;
• restores normal pigmentation in vitiligo.

The use of phototherapy allows achieving stable remission in many skin diseases.

Photoremoval of age spots: Benefits of the procedure

Using the hardware method of phototherapy against age spots has many advantages:

1. Complete removal, not a short-term effect.
2. Restoration of natural skin tone.
3. No need for preliminary preparation.
4. Painless.
5. There are no serious adverse reactions, except for some darkening of the spots for a couple of weeks, after which peeling occurs.

Photorejuvenation and sports

In the first few days after the procedure, it is not advisable to engage in sports, because During physical activity, the cardiovascular system is stimulated and blood pressure increases.

In addition, sweat can lead to irritation and rashes, especially if you play sports that involve contact of your face with a mat or exercise machine.

Fortunately, photorejuvenation and sports are not so contraindicated to each other; it is enough to avoid exercise on the day of the procedure and for another 2-3 days after!

Photo removal of age spots - Before / After Photos

In St. Petersburg, this procedure can be performed at the SkinLazerMed medical center. Free consultation with a doctor on the day of the procedure! Reasonable prices and a guarantee of results at the end of the course are the advantages of the service.

Indications for phototherapy

Phototherapy for newborns

• Phototherapy is used to treat skin diseases such as psoriasis, acne, neurodermatitis, eczema, and neonatal jaundice. Treatment of jaundice in newborns is carried out with phototherapy lamps during various resuscitation measures, for the care of newborns in maternity hospitals and intensive care wards.
• The procedure promotes the healing of trophic ulcers and wounds.
• The procedure is widely used in the beauty industry. Used for photoepilation, skin rejuvenation, removal of wrinkles, age spots, and correction of vascular skin defects. Tattoos are removed using special phototherapy lamps.
• In addition, the procedure affects the retina and can be used to treat depression, sleep disorders and mental disorders.
• Light therapy is recommended as a means of restoring the body's routine when changing time zones.
• According to the American Cancer Society, there is evidence that phototherapy has beneficial effects in the treatment of skin cancer.

Before the phototherapy procedure

Your doctor will determine whether phototherapy is safe for you. To do this, the doctor:

• will examine the skin all over your body and also ask about your reaction to sunlight;
• will ask if you or someone you know has had skin cancer or photosensitivity (a disorder in which the skin becomes more sensitive to sunlight);
• will ask if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Tell your doctor what medications you take, including patches, creams, herbal supplements, and over-the-counter medications (that is, medications you get without a prescription). Some medications, such as retinoids (including tretinoin), certain antibiotics, anti-cancer drugs, and other drugs, can make your skin more sensitive to UV radiation.

If you are prescribed PUVA radiation therapy, you will need to see an ophthalmologist (eye doctor) for a vision test before you start.

How long does photorejuvenation last?

If we consider photorejuvenation in dermatology, then the duration of the result, again, depends on whether the cause of the disease at the organism level has been eliminated.

On average, if all recommendations and proper care are followed, the result of treating specific imperfections can be lifelong. 2-3 preventive procedures per year or a one-time full course are enough, everything will depend on the indications.

If photorejuvenation was performed for lifting and general improvement of skin condition, then the result lasts 12-18 months!

Photos Before and After phototherapy for facial skin

LED therapy, due to its pronounced effect, has won many positive reviews from patients who have undergone treatment for dermatological diseases. The method promotes natural recovery and helps the body independently fight pathological processes, improving the appearance of the skin.

Phototherapy in winter

Many people believe that phototherapy in winter is better than in summer.

• In fact, it is sunny both in winter and summer. And harmful radiation is perfectly reflected from the snow and hits the skin. Accordingly, additional sun protection after the procedure is needed exactly the same as in the summer (see above).
• Temperature changes are also not very favorable for the skin after phototherapy, so in winter it is necessary to avoid hypothermia of the skin in the first days after the procedure.

So, we conclude that the best time for phototherapy is now! And it doesn’t matter what month is on the calendar, it is important to have a competent specialist and good equipment! Well, you yourself followed all the recommendations!

What to consider before starting procedures

• Price. The procedure is very expensive. It is necessary to correctly calculate the funds and take into account that the procedure consists of several sessions over a certain period of time. Consistency and regularity are of great importance.
• Time. In order for the treatment to be effective, 2-3 procedures per week are required for 2-3 months. You need to calculate whether you will have time for this.
• Risks. There is a risk of burns and skin aging. The risk of developing skin cancer increases with long-term use of phototherapy. It is necessary that the eyes are protected during each session, since ultraviolet radiation has a detrimental effect on the retina of the eyes.

Phototherapy method

The LED facial therapy procedure is a hardware cosmetology technique based on the ability of LED radiation to activate certain acceptor enzymes (“accelerators” of biochemical reactions in cells: hemoglobin, catalase, etc.). This also helps to influence the arrangement of atoms inside the cell and its functional state. As a result, it is possible to start the process of formation of reactive oxygen species, which activate oxidative processes.

Due to light therapy, collagen and elastin fibers are produced. In this case, melanin is blocked and the genetically inherent functional abilities of the cells are restored:

• fibrous tissue is replaced with healthy collagen;
• vessels grow, concentrated in the microvasculature of the affected areas;
• Cell membranes are restored - cell growth accelerates.

How phototherapy is carried out in each specific case is determined by the cosmetologist, based on the characteristics of the patient’s skin. If necessary, a 3D facial skin diagnosis can be performed before the session.

A positive biological effect is achieved when exposed to an optimal dose of LED radiation. It should be taken into account that white skin blocks up to 95% of incoming light, and the maximum dosage is 300 J/cm2. Stronger exposure will result in cell death. Only the doctor who performs the procedure can select the correct intensity.

How is the procedure done?

There is no need to prepare specially for this procedure. The only thing the doctor may ask you to do is deep clean the area of ​​skin that will respond to treatment. It is very important to undergo a special test that can confirm or exclude an allergic reaction to exposure to ultraviolet rays. It is also worth finding out whether the patient has serious contraindications to such therapy.

In order for light rays to better penetrate the skin without leaving a burn, it is necessary to lubricate the surface with a special gel. After this, you can begin direct treatment of the affected areas of the skin.

As soon as the procedure is completed, the doctor removes the remaining gel and applies a special medicinal ointment, which helps prevent swelling and irritation.

The time of the procedure depends on the severity of the disease. On average it takes 15-20 minutes, but sometimes it can take half an hour. There will be several procedures, and their number is determined exclusively by a specialist. His choice is based on the diagnosis, severity of the disease, complications, age and individual characteristics of the patient.
