brown spots and Pigmentation Treatment
What Causes Brown Spots?
Blotchy dark spots can be caused by sun exposure over time, inflammation, certain medications (including hormones) or genetics. Excess melanin resides in your epidermis – the top layer of your skin — and deeper, in your dermis, making these brown spots a diverse group of skin issues to treat – not a “one size fits all” approach. Different types of increased pigmentation require different treatments. The various dark or fair tones of human skin are caused by the concentration and distribution of melanocytes.
Laser Treatments
It is not a simple pigment treatment, but depends on the depth of the pigment, the cause of the pigment, and the type. For pigment diseases such as freckles and blemishes, it is important to receive treatment appropriate for each individual's skin condition and pigment characteristics. This is a more advanced customized solution program that improves efficiency by selecting lasers of various wavelengths. Certain skin issues may respond better to IPL or laser treatment. Therefore, do not forget to check US-board certified dermatologist to determine which one is a metter match for your needs.
IPL Treatment vs. Laser toning treatment
Intense Pulsed Lighter Therapy
Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy, also known as a photofacial, is a way to improve the color and texture of your skin without surgery. It can undo some of the visible damage caused by sun exposure on face, neck, hands, or chest. IPL may help if you have red, brown, or splotchy skin because of a health condition. IPL device sends out more than one wavelength of pulsating light. IPL can treat a range of skin conditions at the same time.
Laser Toning
Laser toning is a treatment technique that uses low-fluence laser technology to address hyperpigmentation issues, including sun spots, melasma, and acne scars. Laser toning shatters the pigmentation in the dermis while leaving the epidermis and surrounding tissue undamaged. The laser toning technique can achieve an even skin tone without significant side effects and without requiring any downtime.
