About Face Pigmentation Treatment


Face pigmentation treatment is successfully used over many years to treat all types of skin pigmentation problems like sun spots, age spots on face or body, freckles etc.

Skin pigmentation marks are made of cells containing melanin, which are located under the skin and are typically referred to as freckles and age spots. Such spots can come up on hands, face or other body areas.


Various types of laser are available to treat different kinds of pigmentation. Thus, the laser is used depending upon the type of pigmentation. For example, if pigmentation is in superficial lesions, then a certain kind of face pigmentation treatment is useful to remove pigmentation in a couple of treatments.


The type of treatment also depends on the area to be treated, type of pigmentation, and recovery time. Note that laser treatment is one of the most advanced pigmentation removal treatments. It can remove pigmentation on the skin like sun spots, age spots, and freckles.

Skin pigmentation removal is a quick gentle and non-invasive treatment. The unique laser is absorbed only by the cells containing concentrations of pigment in excess. The laser does not affect any surrounding tissues and keeps skin colour intact. The light pulses generated by the laser are similar to flicking of an elastic band, which is not that uncomfortable. After treatment, one can observe an immediate darkening of the skin. For up to ten days, the skin looks dark, which eventually sheds off.


For deep pigmentation like a melasma, laser resurfacing kind of pigmentation treatment is apt that can remove up to 80% of melanin in one go. Cosmeceutical skin care is also a great solution to skin pigmentation problem.


The Working of Face pigmentation treatment


The laser machine produces a high energy wavelength light that is converted into heat energy for use. This heat energy targets a specific area where there is pigmentation. The laser is absorbed only by the cells with excessive concentration of pigmentation. Because of this, efficient destruction of pigmentation is observed that leaves the surrounding tissues undamaged.
