Rejuvenecimiento de la piel con láser
Cualquier procedimiento estético en la piel con láser requiere que el paciente permanezca alejado del sol como parte de los cuidados posteriores al tratamiento, por lo que los meses de invierno son la mejor época del año para someterse a este tipo de enfoque de rejuvenecimiento de la piel. Además, cuando la piel no está bronceada es el momento más seguro y eficaz para someterse al tratamiento con láser. Por lo general, se requiere más de una sesión para obtener resultados óptimos y estas citas pueden tener semanas de diferencia, por lo que cuanto más tiempo la piel pueda permanecer fuera del sol, mejor. En Ocean Clinic ofrecemos una gama de tratamientos basados en láser que, en función del análisis de la piel del paciente, se pueden utilizar individualmente o en combinación, junto con tratamientos como peelings superficiales o tratamientos de skinbooster / rellenos.

When our skin begins to age there are tell-take signs such as sun spots, loss of collagen, loss of fat, enlarged pores, varying skin textures, hyper-pigmented areas, wrinkles, etc. The constant, rapid advances in new technologies means that the aesthetic market offers many options when it comes to IPL or laser treatments. With each individual case (skin type) being unique it is important to be able to offer the most effective treatments / combinations to suit that particular situation.

At Ocean Clinic we believe that the treatment of each different layer of the skin is a vital pillar of a 3-dimensional skin rejuvenation process. We believe in a multi-level, multi-technology approach for our anti-ageing and skin rejuvenation treatments because there are multiple cellular structures at play in the ageing of the skin; melanocytes, vessels, immunologic cells and the famous elastic fibres of the skin - collagen and elastin; during any rejuvenation treatment we must be selective when treating such structures to ensure no damage is caused to other structures.
Laser resurfacing has a significant impact on the skin and can leave you looking refreshed, rejuvenated and the skin tone smooth and more youthful, there are certain factors to consider in relation to recovery or post-treatment care.

Before laser treatments the skin is treated with a topical anaesthetic numbing cream to avoid any discomfort and the procedure generally lasts between 30-40 minutes. Depending on the condition or severity of the case in question the number of sessions required to achieve the desired outcome is between 1-5. Patients are able to leave the same day, and depending on which treatment is administered recovery time is between 1-4 days. To return to work can vary between 1-7 days, again dependent on the individual situation. As mentioned sun exposure must be avoided as the skin will be far more sensitive and new layers exposed. A strict sun skin care routine must be implemented following laser treatment. Maintenance is between 3-6 months.
The rate of complications with IPL / Laser treatments is very low with the right patient selection and when right conditions are addressed with the appropriate technology. In some patients skin preparation is needed before a treatment, especially in patients with darker skin or melasma. The aftercare is very important and each technology has specific recommendations that our team will explain to you.
