Light pricking and heat. No numbing cream is required. - Result:
Immediately, the treated spot will appear darker. Within 5 to 7 days, the treated spot will continue to darken, forming a crust. After about 2 weeks, the crust will fall, and redness will disappear. - Extra tip:
This treatment is only suitable for very light-colored skin (type 1 to 3).
How does it work?
The advanced pigment-lase treatment uses the alexandrite laser wavelength, which has the highest absorption in the pigmented cells. It selectively targets pigmented skin areas such as freckles and age spots, peeling them away from the skin surface within 7 to 10 days. Right after the treatment, the skin may feel warm and slightly red, and the treated brown spots will appear darker. The burning sensation will cease within less than an hour.
Pigment-lase treatment is effective for individuals over 25 years old with lighter skin complexion struggling with superficial pigmentation, freckles, sun spots, and age spots. Still, it is not suitable for treating melasma.
This treatment offers significant benefits, including complete skin clearance, provided proper preventive measures are taken to avoid sun exposure post-treatment.
Pigment-lase treatments target the face, neck, decolletage, and hands.
