Pigmented Lesion Laser
Spot‑targeted clearance for benign sun spots and discoloration
Our pigment‑focused laser services use 532 nm and 1064 nm to selectively target excess melanin in benign pigmented lesions like sun spots and freckles. With variable pulse structures and spot sizes, we can treat discrete spots on the face, chest, hands, arms, and body with efficient sessions and minimal downtime.
Benefits:
- Visibly lightens sun spots (lentigines) and freckles
- Treats discrete lesions with precision spot targeting
- Complements full‑face tone work (IPL) for comprehensive clarity
What It Helps With
- Benign solar lentigines (sun spots) and ephelides (freckles)
- Post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation (select cases)
- Dyschromia from photoaging
Not a primary treatment for melasma; mixed/deeper pigment may need conservative care or alternative modalities. Your provider will guide the safest plan for your skin tone.
What to Expect
Our streamlined process ensures comfort and optimal results from consultation to completion
1
Before Treatment
- Clinical exam to confirm lesions are benign; photos for your record. Avoid tanning and exfoliants per instructions.
2
During Treatment
- Brief pulses feel like a quick snap with cooling. Treated spots may gray/ash or darken.
3
After Treatment
- Spots typically darken then flake off over 5–10 days (face) and up to 2–3 weeks (body). Strict SPF is required.
Typical Course: 1–3 sessions spaced ~4–6 weeks apart; maintenance for new sun damage as needed.
Candidacy & Safety
Best for many light‑to‑medium skin tones; deeper tones may be eligible with conservative protocols. We avoid treatment over suspicious lesions; those are referred for dermatology evaluation.
Enhancers & Pairings
- IPL photofacial for background pigmentation and redness
- Brightening skincare (vitamin C, pigment control) for maintenance
