Is it possible to do laser facial rejuvenation at home?
Laser rejuvenation technologies have appeared in our lives relatively recently, but they have already firmly conquered the position of the most modern and effective skin restoration procedure. They're good for everyone, except for one thing - a relatively high cost. However, the cosmetology market reacted to this fact in its own way and began to persistently offer devices for home laser rejuvenation. How can they help us?
What is the difference between home lasers and professional installations?
Advertising equipment for home rejuvenation claims that this is a complete replacement for salon procedures. The truth here is just a small percentage. What is the difference between home and professional equipment?
- Devices for home use are more compact, respectively, they do not have the same power as professionals.
- Home appliances are poorly functional and do not have a large number of variations in operating modes. Consequently, it is difficult to choose a power of radiation that works most effectively on your skin.
- Based on this, home laser rejuvenation equipment is not capable of solving complex skin problems as effectively as professionals.
Simply put, such devices are designed to complement home care in the combination of methods we use to rejuvenate the skin.
What are the results of laser rejuvenation at home?
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 a minute is enough for you to get burns on your face.
In addition, few of us scrupulously and uninterruptedly carry out a course of domestic procedures with full observance of technology and without violations of sanitary and hygienic standards. And using the device "once in a while" will not give a positive result.
How much money are you going to spend on laser rejuvenation at home?
The main argument of manufacturers of devices for laser rejuvenation at home is to save money. Therefore, many women in a frenzy buy these devices, succumbing to the temptation to "pay once - use for a lifetime".
About what manufacturers are silent?
The average price of such a laser is quite high. Are you ready to spend a lot of money on "additional care" at home?
A home laser, like any other home appliance, has an expiration date. They wear out and break down faster than you think. And if you bought a "cheap" laser - God forbid it was enough for a few sessions.
Home appliance bulbs need to be replaced regularly! And they are not, as it turns out, cheap.
So, you will spend on this device the cost of a course of salon laser rejuvenation procedures, which should only be done once every five years. And where is your benefit?
Is it possible to do laser resurfacing at home?
Essentially, the bottom line is this. You can easily do laser rejuvenation at home on your own in just three cases:
- You are a practicing cosmetologist and know laser technologies well, while having the opportunity to fulfill 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 can be spent on "one more thing in your house".
If you still don't feel like throwing money away, you should find a beauty center you can trust. It is quite simple to do this: ask friends and acquaintances, read comments on Internet forums, study the website of the selected company. If you realize that no one is in the dark and the experts at the center are ready to openly answer all your questions, feel free to sign up for the procedure!
