Laser treatments, such as Q-switched lasers, IPL (Intense Pulsed Light),and fractional lasers, are highly effective in targeting and breaking down the concentrated melanin deposits responsible for pigmentation issues. These non-invasive procedures can significantly improve the appearance of the skin by reducing the visibility of dark spots, melasma, and other forms of hyperpigmentation.
Q-SWITCHED ND:YAG LASER with “Pico-Second” Technology
This is a dual wavelength laser (532nm and 1064nm) using Q-switched technology. This allows for effective treatment in a controlled and safe manner.
In particular, such a laser has been demonstrated in studies to be very effective against Melasma, and as an excellent skin rejuvenation tool. Skin rejuvenation treatment brings about an improvement in skin texture, wrinkles and fine lines, reduction in pore size, improvement in certain types of acne scars, and a generally more radiant and brighter facial appearance.
Clinical applications include:
Treatment of epidermal pigmentation (freckles, sun spots, solar lentiges, café au lait spots)
Treatment of dermal pigmentation (hori's nevus, PIH, melasma)
Skin rejuvenation
Skin toning
Laser peel
Laser face contouring and lifting
Tattoo removal
Vascular lesions
Apart from treatment of epidermal pigmentation using 532n wavelength, there is no downtime and patients can go about their normal activities.
