Is it possible to do laser facial rejuvenation at home?
Laser rejuvenation technologies have burst into our lives relatively recently, but have already firmly conquered the position of the most modern and effective skin restoration procedure. They are good for everyone, except for one thing - relatively high cost. However, the cosmetology market reacted to this fact in its own way and constantly began to offer home laser rejuvenation devices. How can they help us?
What is the difference between home lasers and professional installations?
Advertising equipment for home rejuvenation claims that it is a complete replacement for salon procedures. The truth here is only a small percentage. What is the difference between home equipment and professional equipment?
- Devices for home use are more compact, respectively, they do not have the same power as professional devices.
- Household appliances are not very functional and do not have a large number of variations in operating modes. As a result, it is difficult to choose such radiation power on them that will work most effectively on your skin.
- Based on this, home laser rejuvenation equipment is not able to solve complex skin problems as effectively as professional problems.
Simply put, these devices are designed to complement home care in the combination of methods we use to rejuvenate the skin.
What are the results of home laser rejuvenation?
The use of laser equipment for home use can only lead to two extremely opposite results:
- You will get a slight rejuvenating effect, hardly comparable to the result of a professional salon procedure;
- You choose the wrong mode and literally one minute is enough to burn your face.
Moreover, few of us scrupulously and uninterruptedly carry out a course of home procedures with full compliance with technology and without violating sanitary and hygienic standards. And using the device "from time to time" will not bring any positive results.
How much money are you going to spend on home laser rejuvenation?
The main argument of manufacturers of home laser rejuvenation devices is to save money. Therefore, many frantic women buy these devices, succumbing to the temptation to "pay once - and use it for a lifetime".
What are the manufacturers silent about?
The average price of such a laser is quite high. Are you ready to spend a lot of money on "extra care" at home?
A household laser, like any other household appliance, has an expiration date. They wear out and break faster than you think. And if you bought such a "cheap" laser - God forbid, it was enough for a couple of sessions.
Lamps in household appliances must be replaced regularly! And they are, ultimately, not cheap at all.
Thus, you will spend on this device the cost of a course of in-salon laser rejuvenation procedures, which only needs to be done once every five years. And where is your advantage?
Is it possible to do laser resurfacing at home?
Essentially, the bottom line is this. You can very easily do laser rejuvenation yourself at home in just three cases:
- You are a practicing cosmetologist and have a good command of laser technologies, while having the possibility of respecting the necessary sanitary and hygienic conditions.
- You are a medically trained person who wants to experiment on yourself, fully aware of your actions.
- You have extra funds that you can spend on "one more thing in your house".
If you're still not in the mood to waste money, you should find a beauty center you can trust. It's quite simple to do: ask friends and acquaintances, read reviews on Internet forums, study the website of the selected company. If you see that no one is gloomy and the specialists of the center are ready to openly answer all your questions, do not hesitate to register for the procedure!
