Recovery Laser Therapy is the treatment designed to support your postoperative period with therapeutic laser technology: less pain, less inflammation and more organized healing, guided by regenerative medicine and the clinical experience of the Total Definer team.
What is it?
Recovery Laser Therapy is a treatment with therapeutic laser light designed specifically to support recovery after surgical or aesthetic procedures: it helps speed up tissue repair processes, decrease pain, control inflammation and support better-quality scarring.
How does it work?
It stimulates the cellular repair processes, helping damaged cells recover more efficiently. It improves circulation and lymphatic drainage, which contributes to reducing inflammation in the treated area. It modulates pain, decreasing the sensation of tension and discomfort in the postoperative period. It supports more organized healing, which can translate into better scars in the medium term.
Benefits
Decreasing postoperative pain and that constant feeling of tension in the treated area. Reducing inflammation and edema, helping the area look less “swollen” as the sessions progress. Supporting better healing, aiming for flatter, less rigid scars with a better final appearance.
Areas that can be treated
Face: facial surgery (lifting, eyelids, nose, chin) according to the surgeon's judgment. Dermatological procedures where better healing and less inflammation are sought. Body: body contouring surgery, breast surgery, liposculpture and other procedures where there may be inflammation, fibrosis or a risk of visible scars. Specific scar areas: particular incisions that you want to care for in greater detail.
How do you know if you are a candidate?
You are in a recent postoperative period or in the phase of consolidating your results. You feel pain, persistent inflammation or very tight areas where the surgery was performed. You are concerned about the quality of your scars and want to give them the best possible support from the start.
What to expect during the procedure
As the sessions go by, many people notice a progressive decrease in pain and in the feeling of tightness, inflammation that subsides in a more orderly way and tissues that feel less hard to the touch. Visually, you can expect a less red, calmer area and, in the medium term, healing that progresses with better quality than if you depended only on time and medication.
Results
Less pain and less need for painkillers in some patients. More controlled inflammation, with reduced edema and better mobility of the area. Scars that mature better, with a lower risk of thickening and a look that is more in harmony with the surrounding skin.
Frequently asked questions
At what point after surgery can Recovery Laser Therapy begin?
It depends on the type of surgery and on how your recovery is going. In some protocols it starts very early, when the skin and tissues are ready to receive laser energy; in others, it waits until the most acute phase of inflammation has passed.
How many sessions are needed?
Some patients require a few sessions focused on pain and inflammation; others, especially after more extensive surgery, benefit from longer plans that also work on the quality of the scar and the tissue.
Is it painful?
In general, therapeutic laser therapy is felt as a gentle warmth.
