Pigmentation can be of various types and due to various reasons, such as Freckles, Solar Lentigens, Age spots, Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation and Melasma. Most of these types of pigmentation can be treated with a Q Switched Laser.
A Q Switched Laser is a system in which laser beams in nanoseconds breaks down pigment which is eventually eliminated by our body’s immune system.
The procedure is a quick 15 minute procedure. It is well tolerated and requires no anesthesia. Multiple sessions are required. There may be a downtime that involves the darkening of the said pigmentation for the next few days after the procedure before it begins to lighten.
