Thinking of laser in summer? And why not? Or do you still think that you have to wait till winter for that
laser magic? Well, it is time to change that! High-power lasers are considered “golden standard” of aesthetic
medicine across the world – this means that even in Australia, Saudi Arabia and other countries where the sun
may shine stronger than most of us can ever imagine. All those myths from years ago about not being able to
bare the luminosity outside after a laser treatment can finally be forgotten. And we will tell you why!
Thanks to medical lasers you can
ditch many problems – scars, unwanted
pigmentation, stretch marks, wrinkles,
widened vessels, acne or hair in any body
parts. However, you have to trust quality.
Every authentic laser has to be certified by
the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA),
has to hold the European CE certificate, and
it has to be operated by a physician.
Palomar Medical Technologies was the
first company to ever introduce medical
lasers and to this day it has been developing
– alongside with the Candela company –
highest rated professional devices in the
field. Picking some of their products for your
treatment would definitely be a good choice!
CHEMICAL VS. LASER PEELING
Many of us are familiar with chemical
peel. Various acid mixtures of different
concentrations are utilised to penetrate
top skin layer and through its chemical

destruction they rejuvenate the skin. The
result of this procedure will depend upon
the professionalism of the person treating
you and recovery can last up to two weeks.
However, have you ever heard that there is
gentler and more efficient peeling? It’s the
laser peeling!
Laser peeling is performed with fractional
laser Palomar®. It aims for more considerable
effects than chemical peeling with far less
risk. It renews the skin without causing any
disruptions on it. The renewal starts from
within without affecting the skin’s surface
complexion at all. There is no recovery time
needed. You can go to work the very next
day or spend some quality time with family
and friends. The renewed skin layer will start
being visible through the natural complexion
renewal process, which takes approximately
28 days.
SAY GOODBYE TO STRETCH MARKS!
Watch out! If there’s anything that
fractional laser Palomar® specialises in, it’s
treating almost every woman’s worry –
stretch marks. Caused by the breaking of
elastic fibres underneath the skin’s surface
as the skin is stretched to the extreme, they
commonly appear during pregnancy or
after significant weight gain. They are more
likely to appear on the belly, buttocks and
thighs in women while in men, they usually
appear all over the arms or the chest if men
do weight lifting.
Laser can stimulate elastin fibres in the
skin. Through this process it can very nicely
correct stretch marks or scars on the surface
of the skin. The younger stretch marks are
the better and faster they can be solved,
therefore it is highly recommended to find
a physician as soon as they appear.
YOUNGER IN SUMMER
You don’t have to suffer from fading
facial contours anymore, they don’t suit
summer anyway! Unique DeepIR® lifting
from Palomar Medical Technologies can
help you to fight them. This breakthrough
technology allows infrared rays to penetrate
deeper skin layers and heat them up to
45 degrees Celsius. This causes significant
tightening of collagen fibres and allows you
to experience a well-rounded lifting effect
with no pain, no recovery time and 100%
no worries.
ABLATIVE OR NON-ABLATIVE?
If you’re not familiar with various laser
types, you don’t have to be worried. A
professional can always tell you which one
is suitable to help with your condition.
Palomar® is a fractional non-ablative laser,
which means that it treats the skin without
disrupting it. The laser heats the skin up to
stimulate it to bigger coll
