What is hyperpigmentation?
Pigmentation consists of sunspots, liver spots, age spots, brown spots and freckles. Essentially those items related to aging and exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun. They are dark patches of skin, caused by an over-production of melanin on the surface of the skin. More often than not, people can be self-conscious of these marks.
Why use laser?
Light is released in short pulses that are readily absorbed by the high concentration of melanin found in the pigmented areas. The rapid absorption of light energy heats the melanin and causes the destruction of the melanin-rich cells.
What happens during the session?
At Laser Skin Solutions, I use my Nd: YAG laser for this treatment and I have to use 3 different wavelengths to treat the area. It isn’t painful, but the area may darken or scab, immediately after treatment and over the coming weeks will lighten and eliminate the pigmentation. You may need several treatments depending on the severity of the pigment and you MUST wear SPF 50 on the area moving forwards.
