Laser Pigmentation Removal utilises 755nm wavelength laser technology to precisely target and reduce epidermal pigmented lesions. This advanced procedure is specifically designed to address non-melasmic hyperpigmentation, including ephelides (freckles), solar lentigines (sunspots), and sun-induced pigmentation.
The treatment works by emitting specific wavelengths of light that are selectively absorbed by pigmented areas of the skin. This targeted approach breaks down excess melanin, causing dark spots and discolourations to fragment. Over time, these fragmented pigments are naturally removed by the body's immune system, revealing a more even and radiant complexion.
Additionally, the process stimulates collagen production, contributing to overall skin rejuvenation and a more youthful appearance.

how does laser pigment removal work?
The laser emits a specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by pigmented areas of the skin. This light energy shatters the pigment or melanin, causing it to rise to the skin's surface where it darkens and naturally flakes off or fades.
The process not only targets pigmentation but also stimulates collagen production, leading to overall skin rejuvenation and a more youthful appearance.
