Laser Pigmentation Removal
LASER PIGMENTATION TREATMENTS
Our Q10 ND Yag laser can remove a variety of pigmented lesions such as Freckles, Age spots (Lentigos), Sunspots (Solar Lentigos), Café all Lait (Birthmarks), Seborrheic Keratosis, Hyperpigmentation and Melasma. Most of these are caused by an overproduction of melanin resulting in darker blemishes on the skin. Results can usually be achieved in 1-4 sessions.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Q10 uses specific wavelengths of light in very short bursts of energy targeting these lesions to fragment the pigmentation causing it the move to the surface of the skin and flake off. The result will be a more even skin tone, brightening of the skin and more youthful appearance.
PREPARING FOR YOUR TREATMENT
Consultation & Patch test- Before any treatment can be carried out we book you in for a consultation and patch test at least 48hrs before the procedure. Here we can discuss your suitability for the treatment and discuss any concerns and go through
the pre and after care guidance.
Preparing your skin- For at least 4 weeks before the treatment avoid sun exposure or UV exposure (including sunbeds)
skin care- You should avoid any active products on your skin such as AHA’s, BHA’s, retinal treatments 3 days before your appointment.
Skin treatments- 2-4 weeks before avoid any skin treatments such as microneedling, chemical peels, and laser hair removal treatments.
skin type- Please note this treatment is only safe and effective on lighter skin tones due to melanin heat absorption. Skin type 4 and above would be more suited to an alternative treatment such as chemical peels.
Note- We cannot treat and raised lesions or unknown skin concerns with this treatment. Hormonal malasma is less effective and therefore we recommend chemical peels or microneedling to address this concern. Of you are unsure about the best treatment please contact us to discuss this or book a complimentary consultation so we can assess in person.
