Does photon skin rejuvenation cause skin abrasion?

Under normal circumstances, photorejuvenation does not cause skin abrasions or breaks. If discomfort occurs, it is recommended to seek timely medical attention and receive standardized treatment under a doctor's guidance. The specific analysis is as follows:

Photorejuvenation primarily uses intense pulsed light (IPL) on the skin tissue, generating photothermal and photochemical effects. This stimulates the deep collagen and elastic fibers in the skin to reorganize and restore elasticity, while enhancing vascular tissue function and improving circulation. As a result, it helps eliminate or reduce facial skin issues such as wrinkles and enlarged pores. Additionally, the intense pulsed light can penetrate the skin and be selectively absorbed by pigment clusters and blood vessels within the tissue, effectively addressing skin imperfections like age spots and broken capillaries.

Photorejuvenation is a non-invasive dermatological procedure that typically does not cause trauma to the skin. During treatment, the photorejuvenation device emits light of specific wavelengths, which precisely targets problem areas of the skin without damaging healthy tissue. Therefore, under normal conditions, photorejuvenation does not lead to skin abrasions. The reference cost ranges from 3,000 to 6,000 yuan per session, with visible improvements usually appearing within 1–2 weeks. However, possible side effects may include dry skin, burns, infections, or allergic reactions.

Prior to undergoing photorejuvenation, patients should fully understand the treatment’s principles, expected outcomes, and potential risks, and make informed decisions under medical supervision. After treatment, patients should follow their doctor’s recommendations for skincare and avoid factors that may irritate the skin, such as ultraviolet exposure, to ensure both safety and effectiveness of the procedure.
