The 1064nm Q-switched Nd: Yag laser has been designed to target various types of pigment in the skin, and can achieve significant lightening of pigmented lesions including acne marks, freckles, uneven skin tone, age and brown spots, pigmentary demarcation lines, moles, dark lips, dark circles, birth-marks, etc.
When you visit our clinic for treatment with the Q-Switched ND YAG laser, your dermatologist will first make a detailed assessment of your skin concerns, to ensure that this laser is the best skin treatment option in your situation. Once the treatment begins, your provider might need to numb the area with a topical cream or use a local anesthetic to further reduce discomfort. You will also be provided with protective eyewear.
Your dermatologist will guide the laser across the treatment area, and deliver powerful bursts of energy to break down the pigment. Most patients handle this procedure very well, and our staff works diligently to ensure maximum comfort.
After the procedure, you may notice redness and warmth in the treatment area. Some patients may also experience very mild bleeding at the treatment site in case of freckles removal or treatment of dark lips. Cooling with ice and application of barrier-repair creams may be done on the skin after treatment, to soothe any discomfort. It is also important to cover up the area with gauze, to help the skin heal faster. Over the coming days, you may notice some crusting at the treatment site, as the skin begins to heal. To reduce the chances of scarring, it is vital to let the scab heal on its own, without attempting to remove it.
