Pigmented Lesion Treatment (Sun spots, Melasma)

Safely targets and dissolves unwanted sun spots, age spots, and hyperpigmentation.

Short-pulse Nd:YAG laser light is absorbed by excess pigment (melanin) in the skin. The rapid thermal energy fractures the pigment clusters into tiny particles without breaking the skin surface. The body's immune system clears away these particles, and the remaining spots flake off.

TREATMENT DURATION

30 Mins

DOWN TIME

Minimal (Treated spots will darken, resemble "coffee grounds," and flake off within 5–7 days on the face, or up to 14 days on the body)

RECOMMENDED SERIES

2 to 4 sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart.

WHAT TO EXPECT

A quick, warm snapping sensation. It is brief and easily managed without numbing cream.

PRE-TREATMENT

Avoid any tanning, sun exposure, or chemical peels for 4 weeks before treatment.


Stop using hydroquinone, retinol, or exfoliating acids 7 days prior.

AFTER CARE

Do not scrub or pick at the darkened pigment spots; let them flake off naturally.


Wear a wide-brimmed hat and apply physical SPF 50 daily to protect the new skin layers.


Avoid internal overheating (saunas, intense workouts) for 3 days to prevent rebound hyperpigmentation.
