What is Skin Laser Treatment?

Skin laser treatment is a method that uses high-energy light rays to treat various skin problems. This treatment aims to improve problems such as wrinkles, acne scars, sun spots, pigmentation problems and skin sagging by targeting the upper layers of the skin. Lasers increase collagen production by reaching the subcutaneous layers without damaging the skin surface. In this way, the skin becomes younger, healthier and brighter. Laser treatment also accelerates the skin renewal process and supports the skin's natural healing ability. This treatment can be done with various types of lasers suitable for different skin types and problems.

Dr. analyzes your skin type and problems accurately. Özekinci decides which laser technology is most suitable for you.

In order for this process to take place in the best possible way, Dr. Özekinci's experience and in-depth knowledge in his field of expertise are very important.

Preparation Process Before Skin Laser Treatment

Before skin laser treatment, it is important to pay attention to some preparation steps in order to get the best results from the treatment. In the first step, a detailed evaluation with a dermatologist is very critical. Dr. Melda Özekinci and expert dermatologists determine the most suitable laser treatment method for you, taking into account your skin type and treatment goals. This evaluation is very important for the treatment to be effective and for you to get the results that best suit your personal needs.

Another important factor to consider before laser treatment is to check whether there is any infection or wound on the skin that needs to heal. Such skin problems can negatively affect the treatment process, so this preliminary examination by a dermatologist is very necessary. Before starting laser treatment, the area to be treated must be clean and healthy. Having a smooth and clean skin surface allows the laser beams to work more efficiently and can increase the healing speed during the treatment process.

Healing Process After Skin Laser Treatment

Although the healing process usually begins quickly after skin laser treatment, each individual's recovery time may vary. For the first few days after treatment, it is normal to experience slight redness, swelling and a feeling of warmth in the treated area. This is a symptom of the microdamage caused by the laser to the layers under the skin starting to heal and usually subsides within a few days. The healing process may vary depending on the type of laser used, your skin type, and the depth of the skin problem being treated.

In skin laser treatments performed with the expertise of Dr. Melda Özekinci, patients are provided with a more comfortable post-treatment period. For example, recovery time is generally faster in treatments with fractional laser. Fractional laser intervenes in the lower layers of the skin, increasing collagen production and accelerating the skin renewal process. In this way, the skin quickly becomes smoother and tighter. However, if deeper skin problems are being treated, for example when a CO2 laser is used, the recovery time may be slightly longer. CO2 laser provides more permanent and visible results by affecting the deeper layers under the skin, but recovery in this process may take a little more time.

Things to Consider After Skin Laser Treatment

There are some important points to consider after skin laser treatment. First, avoid applying extremely hot water, soap and chemical products to the treated area. After laser treatment, sun exposure should be avoided and a broad-spectrum sunscreen should be used. Crusting, drying and flaking may occur in the treated area, which is a natural part of the skin's healing process. During this period, rubbing or peeling the treated area is strictly not recommended. Moisturizing and healing products recommended by the doctor should be used to help the skin healing process. In case of swelling or redness after the treatment, cold compresses recommended by your doctor can be applied. Paying attention to skin care for a few weeks after the treatment will increase the effectiveness of the treatment.

Effects and Results of Laser Treatment

After skin laser treatment, proper care of the treated area is extremely important for the healthy and rapid progress of the healing process. First, the application of extremely hot water, soap, or chemical-containing products should be avoided to the treated area. Such products can increase the sensitivity of the skin and negatively affect the healing process after treatment. After laser treatment, sun exposure should be avoided and broad-spectrum, high-factor sunscreen products should be used. Sunlight may cause blemishes and unwanted skin reactions on the treated skin area.

After the treatment, natural healing symptoms such as crusting, drying or flaking of the skin may be observed. During this process, rubbing or peeling the treated area should be strictly avoided. Since the skin is in the process of healing itself, such interventions may negatively affect the healing process and cause permanent scars on the skin. Dr. Melda Özekinci's recommended moisturizing and healing products will accelerate the skin renewal process and help protect the skin barrier. These products provide the moisture the skin needs and relieve skin irritation after treatment.

Side Effects of Skin Laser Treatment

Side effects of skin laser treatment are usually mild and temporary. Redness, swelling and feeling of heat after treatment usually disappear within a few hours. However, in some cases, slight crusting or peeling of the skin in the treated area may occur. Apart from this, although rare, pigment changes or infections may develop on the skin after laser treatment. Such side effects can usually be minimized with treatment followed by a specialist dermatologist. Any changes or suspicious conditions on the skin should be consulted immediately with a specialist. Proper post-treatment care helps keep side effects to a minimum. If any side effects persist for a long time, it is recommended to seek professional help.

Suitable Candidates for Skin Laser Treatment

Skin laser treatment is suitable for anyone with generally healthy skin who suffers from skin problems such as acne scars, wrinkles, sun spots, pigment problems and fine lines. However, while some skin types may benefit more from laser treatment, laser treatment is not recommended for some skin types. For example, people with extremely light skin tone may get better results from laser treatment, while people with darker skin tone may need to be careful. Laser treatment is not recommended for individuals with active infections, herpes, a history of skin cancer, or serious skin diseases. Skin laser treatment should be determined individually after the doctor's skin examination and evaluation. Experts recommend the most appropriate treatment method based on each individual's skin type and treatment goals.

Skin Laser Treatment Prices and Package Options

Prices of skin laser treatment vary depending on many factors. Factors such as the type of skin problem being treated, the type of laser to be used, the number of sessions and the size of the area to be treated are important factors that affect the price. For example, treatments that require in-depth treatment, such as fractional laser and CO2 laser, can often be more expensive because these treatments require more advanced technologies and expertise. On the other hand, IPL laser superficial treatments are generally offered at more affordable prices.

Many clinics can make treatment costs more affordable by offering package options for multiple sessions. These packages can reduce the total cost by providing certain discounts depending on the number of sessions. However, it is important to remember that prices are related not only to the price per session but also to the quality of the treatment process. Treatments performed by a qualified and experienced specialist provide safer and more effective results. When evaluating treatment prices, not only the cost but also the expertise and technology used for treatment should be taken into account. An affordable treatment does not always produce the best results; Therefore, when deciding on treatment, it is important to consider not only the price, but also the quality of treatment and the experience of the doctor.
