Objectives: Currently there is a growing demand for non-invasive therapies aimed at treating facial aging.
We present clinical results in facial rejuvenation with the combination of two technologies: facial non-ablative fractional laser 1340nm Nd:YAP and Intraoral 2940nm Er:YAG SMOOTH mode.
Introduction: The advent of high potency pulsed ablative CO2 laser for the treatment of photoaging in the mid-1990s, laser resurfacing became the standard treatment for facial rejuvenation. The results are impressive but the discomfort, the prolonged recovery and the high risk for complications lead to patient dissatisfaction.
With the advances in laser technology, multiple non-ablative lasers for facial rejuvenation became available.
Non-ablative laser improves mild to moderate aged skin, with a minimal risk of complications and without the downtime associated to ablative laser techniques
Materials / method: The treatment platform used was ETHEREA-MX® (VYDENCE Medical®, São Carlos, SP, Brazil). 1- handpiece ProoDeep – non-ablative fractional laser Nd:YAP (Neodimiun:Ytrium Aluminum Peroviskita) of 1340nm and 2- handpiece DualMode - Intraoral 2940nm Er:YAG SMOOTH mode.
The skin cooling was performed with the device SIBERIAN (VYDENCE Medical®, São Carlos, SP, Brazil) for comfort during and after the procedure.
Results: Clinical results will be presented and illustrated in photos and videos.
Conclusion: The combination of these two technologies (facial non-ablative fractional laser 1340nm Nd:YAP and Intraoral 2940nm Er:YAG SMOOTH mode) has proven to be a modern, safe and effective alternative for the treatment of facial rejuvenation, especially in the challenging perioral region.
