Lasers are a simple, fast, effective and safe tool for removing a wide variety of benign pigmented lesions, such as freckles, age spots, birthmarks, moles, certain vascular lesions, ephelides, melasma, seborrheic and actinic keratoses

Laser removal of pigmented lesions works by destroying the pigment in the skin without the need for excision. This process is completed in 3 simple steps:

Step 1 – LIGHT ABSORPTION: The laser produces short nanosecond pulses of intense light that pass harmlessly through the top layers of the skin to be selectively absorbed by the melanin pigment in the lesion.

Step 2 – PIGMENT BREAK-UP: The laser light is transformed into photoacoustic waves which mechanically break up the melanin pigment into smaller particles.

Step 3 – PIGMENT REMOVAL: These particles are then removed by the body’s own immune system, as the skin’s macro-phages clear the excess pigment from the area.

The laser wavelength is what determines which chromophore will be predominantly targeted by the laser to be selectively removed. Clinical studies show that superficial lesions can be treated most effectively with the KTP 532 nm wavelength, while the Nd:YAG 1064 nm wavelength can be used to target deeper-lying chromophores. Additionally, Q-switched light, available with Fotona’s QX MAX laser system, is especially effective due to its high peak powers and selective nature, enabling it to break apart pigments only and not cells. This means that pigment destruction can take place without ablating the skin.

It is widely recognised in the medical community that Q-Switched lasers are the ideal tool for effectively removing benign pigmented lesions. Combining 4 laser modalities in an advanced, high-powered solution, Fotona’s QX MAX laser system effectively removes all common pigmented lesions. Fotona’s innovative R-HX handpiece produces a completely flat laser beam profile that is hexagonal in shape to allow for more precise and uniform coverage. Homogeneity of the laser beam profile is important in pigment removal treatments and skin whitening. It ensures safety during treatment since laser energy is evenly distributed across the treated area. The system’s OPTOflex articulated arm increases precision and safety. OPTOflex generates absolute uniform beam profiles. Its ergonomic design allows easy and natural hand movement during procedures.

Laser treatment of pigmented lesions is quick, sutureless, has a rapid healing time and produces excellent results. It is suitable for all ethnic skin types. For example, Asian skin is highly sensitive to heat, and often hyper-pigmentation can result from using the wrong laser sources or as a result of poor administration of the laser treatment. The Nd:YAG or KTP Nd:YAG laser sources, on the other hand, have been generating desirable treatment results to all ethnic skin types.

Since its introduction, Fotona’s QX MAX has been globally recognised as an ultra-performance Q-Switched laser system. The StarWalker represents the next important evolutionary step forward and takes the system to an even higher level.

ASP: Third Generation Technology

StarWalker® and its groundbreaking ASP (Adaptive Structured Pulse) technology represent a cosmic shift forward for the medical and aesthetic laser industry.

This third-generation technology combines the unsurpassed range of pulse duration modes of Fotona’s VSP (Variable Square Pulse) technology with the revolutionary capability of ASP technology to adapt the temporal structure of laser pulses to the bio-photonic dynamics of laser-tissue interaction.

Power of a Pico Laser with the Energy of a Q-Switched Laser

StarWalker’s unique TMD (Transverse Mode Discrimination) laser oscillator technology combined with the ASP pulse control delivers very short (5 nsec) Q-switched pulses consisting of a high energy train of ultra-short bursts of energy in trillionths of a second, enabling photomechanical impact to shatter tiny skin targets without injury to the surrounding skin. StarWalker’s technology thus combines the high energy capabilities of nanosecond lasers with the ultrashort pulse peak powers of traditional picosecond lasers.

Modulated Acoustics Q-Switched (MaQX) Laser System – Unmatched Q-Switched Pulse Energy

Fotona’s StarWalker laser system features the entire range of super-short pulse technologies in a single, high-performance solution. StarWalker’s patented MaQX pulse modalities produce powerful bursts of laser energy that photoically break apart skin pigmentations into smaller, more easily eliminated particles.

Based on revolutionary ASP technology, the StarWalker is capable of delivering up to an unprecedented 10 J of Q-switched energy in one giant structured MaQX pulse. The unique MaQX high energy capability of StarWalker enables the generation of a higher energy photoacoustic effect at the treatment site, leading to more effective and faster treatments. Additionally, with high MaQX energies, larger spot sizes can be used resulting in more homogeneous treatments of even deeper lying skin pigments, and therefore with reduced risk of unwanted side effects.

• Third-generation ASP technology for ultimate precision, efficacy and safety of treatments
• Widest range of procedure modes, including unique MaQX, VERDE, FRAC3 and VERSA3 modes for pigment, vascular and collagen treatments
• Impressive line of advanced smart control handpieces
• Intuitive, easy-to-use parameter selection
• Minimally invasive, safe treatments with little downtime
• Great patient comfort and satisfaction

Bare Body Laser Pigmentation Removal Melbourne

Pigmentation & Melasma

Sun damage, hormones and acne can all lead to pigmentation developing on the skin. After establishing what layer of the skin your pigmentation is sitting, we devise a course of at least 6 treatments to help lift and fade unwanted pigmentation.

We use our Observ skin scanner to see in great detail the layers of your skin and assess the degree of pigmentation and with almost pinpoint accuracy diagnose your skin condition and needs. 

Glowing skin at every age.

We’re here to help you treat it well through every season of your life.

At Bare Body, we offer an unparalleled, holistic skin experience. We take the guesswork out of picking skin treatments by taking you on a skin journey with an Observ Skin Analysis. We then incorporate a range of treatments into your individual skin program, from Skin Needling, Peels, Dermaplaning, Custom Corrective Facials to Microdermabrasion and Omnilux LED Therapy.

Our dedicated skin specialists will guide you through what each treatment does, providing honest advice and giving you an in-depth understanding and recommendations based on your skin type. Your therapist will then work with you to develop an at-home treatment program that will accelerate your results and achieve your skin goals, using handpicked products from a range of high quality, potent cosmeceutical brands including Aspect, CosMedix, PCA and Société.

We take a holistic approach to treating the skin. We assess lifestyle influencers, diet, stress, gut health and your current skincare routine to build an understanding of the root of your skin concerns.

An Initial Observ Consultation is a must-do step for all new clients. This consultation will provide you with all the information you need to understand, treat and transform your skin both in clinic and at home.

The Observ Skin Scanner analyses the skin at both a superficial and dermal level. The Observ produces 6 digital images assessing texture, pigmentation, oil flow, hydration, collagen, vascularity and capillaries, and bacteria. The images are then emailed to you alongside your custom treatment plan. We continue to use the Observ scanner throughout your skin journey to track your progress. For best results, clients must use retinol and antioxidant serums at home to continue to stimulate the skin between treatments.

A combination of treatments can reduce this discolouration and even out your skin tone, leaving you radiating good vibes and younger-looking skin.

There are a range of common skin conditions where there is brown and blotchy discolouration of the skin. If you have an excess of brown pigment in the skin then we call this hyperpigmentation or just simply pigmentation. Pigmentation is contributed to by many factors including your genetics, past sun exposure, hormonal changes and trauma to the skin. The choice of treatment will depend on the cause of the pigmentation as well as your skin type, the pattern of pigmentation and the depth of the pigment in the skin.

For the best results with unwanted pigmentation a combination approach is necessary and simple options are tried first as aggressive treatments can have the unintended consequence of actually worsening the pigmentation. Often with skin pigmentation we are trying to control rather than cure the condition and ongoing topical treatments and sunblock can be very important.

• Topicals: The first line of treatment is an individualised Pigmentation Program tailored to the type and severity of the pigmentation and your skin type. Topical agents, superficial peels, prescription depigmenting creams and sunscreen, are all important.
• Lasers: There are a number of medical-grade Pigment Lasers including the Revlite, Excel, Varilite, Ruby, Fraxel and Picosure lasers. Each of these lasers can be operated at various settings including power, duration of laser pulse, size of laser beam, frequency of laser pulses per second and skin cooling. Expertise is required in choosing which laser is best for a particular clinical situation and then adjusting the various parameters to get the best result.

Pigmentation is primarily due to excessive melanin, which is the naturally occurring brown pigment that is the main determinant of your skin colour. Melanin is produced by skin cells called melanocytes and most pigmentation problems are due to an excess number of melanocytes and an increased production of melanin by these pigment cells.

There are 3 main things that worsen pigmentation: hormones, sun damage and skin trauma/inflammation. Several causes can be present in the same person at the same time. Pigmentation occurs at different levels in the skin either superficial (epidermal), deeper (dermal) or a mixture of both and this is important in determining the choice of which treatment will work best.

Large patches of pigmentation can be embarrassing and a cosmetic concern. Dark brown patches can be difficult to cover with make-up and hence removing or significantly fading these patches can of great benefit to appearance.

Widespread areas of uneven pigmentation and brown spots from sun damage can give the skin an aged appearance and most people feel that excessive pigmentation ages the skin much more than wrinkling and sagging. Successful treatment of pigmentation can consequently rejuvenate and significantly improve the appearance of the skin.

Bay Medical Aesthetics – Laser Pigmentation Removal Melbourne 

03 9589 0200

At Bay Medical Aesthetics, we use medical-grade devices such as European machines, regularly serviced, to deliver top results in laser for hyperpigmentation. We offer the best care possible, from our initial in depth skin consultations right through to every stage of the procedure for pigmentation removal in Melbourne. We even provide post treatment skin care tips, with an aftercare follow up call designed to check how you’re doing and answer any questions you have. With our extra care regimes, you will experience minimal downtime after your treatment and a complexion that glows.

If you’re looking for minimally invasive non-surgical procedures to treat skin conditions such as rosacea, age spots, freckles, melasma, broken capillaries, birthmarks and nevus of ota, our skin pigmentation laser treatment could be the perfect solution.

Lasers with specific wavelengths are absorbed by two of the body’s own natural chemicals – Melanin in the pigmented areas and Haemoglobin in the red blood cells. Both these pigments convert the light energy into heat. This heat is used to destroy the parts of the cells in which the melanin is stored, and to damage the walls of the vessels supplying blood to the areas where vascular damage is seen.

Hyperpigmentation is best treated with either pigment lasers or IPL. The clinician will examine the skin to identify the plane on which the pigment cluster lies. For instance, freckles are usually on the surface – thus called epidermal pigmentation. Melasma and sunspots, on the other hand, can be in the deeper skin layers – thus called dermal or mixed pigments. Once this relation is made, a suitable laser for hyperpigmentation with a specific wavelength can be chosen for pigmentation removal in Melbourne. With IPL, filters can be applied to choose a range of wavelengths to target multiple planes, however they usually act more superficially in comparison to a laser.

Laser energy is applied to the skin and is immediately absorbed by the rogue melanin particles. The heat generated from the laser impact causes the pigment to heat up and shatter into finer fragments. These fragments are later scavenged and eventually removed by the immune cells and the lymphatic system. Some pigments may be recalcitrant and may require multiple sessions before they eventually resolve and leave behind a complexion that’s even in tone and colour.

In general, epidermal pigments are easier removed as compared to the deeper and more stubborn dermal pigments. Dermal pigments may require a combination of lasers to target its numerous planes of placement.

Spider veins are best treated with laser vascular lesion removal. Laser energy produces heat, which selectively destroys the abnormal veins. The laser energy penetrates the skin and is absorbed by superficial blood vessels. The heat generated from the laser coagulates the blood inside the vessel, causing it to collapse and seal.

Over the next few weeks, the vessel will lighten or completely disappear, and all the blood will be removed by the body’s scavenging cells. If the blood supply to the veins is strong, the vessels may re-establish blood flow again, making it necessary for several treatments. Laser treatments allow the delivery of a precise dosage of energy to each blood vessel without injuring any nearby structures. However, laser treatment is ineffective for deeper and larger veins.

There are a wide range of conditions that this kind of laser therapy can treat, including age spots, freckles, epidermal melasma, ultraviolet dyschromia, broken capillaries, diffuse redness, rosacea, cherry angiomas and salmon patch birthmarks. If you have broken capillaries, laser treatment can be very effective. You may also like to try rosacea laser treatment for general redness, or birthmark laser treatment for removal of long-term pigmentation. Laser vascular lesion removal is also possible.

Skin pigmentation (hyperpigmentation) is a condition where the skin is darker. This can occur in small patches or cover much larger areas of the body. Example are freckles, age spots, sunspots, dyschromia, dark skin patches, melasma, chloasma, birth marks, Mongolian spots, café au lait spots and sun damage.

It is important for patients to realise that pigmentation cannot be cured permanently. There are multiple factors – from lifestyle, hormones, genetics to environmental stress – that influence pigmentary change, and these may deter complete resolution. In addition to a procedure for pigmentation removal in Melbourne, such as laser for hyperpigmentation to improve tone and colour, a healthy lifestyle and a positive mindset are equally crucial.

Laser Treatment

At City Laser Clinic we understand the distress and embarrassment that skin blemishes such as melasma can cause. City Laser Clinic laser therapists have established that the Q-Switch laser is the most effective resource for treatment of skin blemishes such as Melasma, because of the functional ability to select and deliver the laser wavelength best suited to the depth of the discolouration.

City Laser Clinic therapists have the experience, training and qualifications to provide safe and effective treatment of all types of skin pigmentations. The City Laser Clinic laser therapists do sometimes need to refer clients to their General Medical Practitioner for assessment and when in doubt will not treat until a Medical Clearance is provided. As with all Laser therapy treatments, the frequency and number of laser treatments will depend on your skin type, the area affected and the size of that area.

Contact us to arrange a free laser consultation to discuss a laser treatment plan that suits your needs. Our experience shows that 8-10 treatments weekly will ensure significant improvement and in some cases complete fading of Melasma. One maintenance laser treatment every 8 weeks is recommended to maintain achieved results.

The surrounded skin will look slightly pink and the treated lesion may appear darker. The redness will subside within 2 – 4 hours. If your treatment required down time, slight redness may remain for a few days (3 – 5 days). It can be easily be covered with makeup. The redness will eventually subside.

Melasma is a dermal condition and has a tendency to reappear especially due to the sun exposure. Meticulous use of SPF is a must! As with all laser treatment, you must avoid exposure to direct sunlight before treatment, during treatment and for some weeks following treatment. At City Laser Clinic, our experienced qualified laser therapists will advise you based on your skin type and the nature of the treatments that you are receiving.

RF energy penetrates deep into the dermis layer without heating the surface of the skin, it uses tiny needles to carry the energy deep into the skin, stimulating natural collagen and elastin production. As the collagen is released, it restructures the skin layers without causing any injury. The beauty of this process is that the release of the collagen and elastin goes to the site of the needling as well as to the surrounding area.

We use medical-grade technology to ensure the safe and effective removal of hair with minimal discomfort to you. 

Professional laser hair removal works by using pulses of laser light to destroy hair follicles. During treatment, the laser device targets the hair with a concentrated beam of light, which is absorbed by the pigment in the hair damaging the hair follicle hindering future growth. Hair reduction through this method helps you save a significant amount of time and money by doing away with unnecessary wax, razors, epilators and other painful, messy alternatives.

We are able to treat any area, from the legs to the upper lip, with exceptional accuracy. All treatments at our Melbourne laser hair removal clinic are conducted by trained professionals and are completely safe – with no harm or alteration to surrounding skin or tissue.

Alongside our long-lasting hair removal, we also offer a range of non-invasive skin treatments to improve the appearance of your complexion. These are administered by qualified practitioners who balance enhancing beauty with maintaining a natural appearance.

Treatments include:

• Chemical Peels – To soothe, hydrate, brighten, smooth and renew your skin
• Derma Rolling/Skin Needling – This regenerative treatment stimulates the release of healing collagen in the skin, treating scarring, wrinkles, pigmentation and more
• Enzyme Therapy – To treat pigmentation, acne, open pores, scarring and more
• Laser Photo Rejuvenation – We offer this unique laser skin treatment to Melbourne men and women wanting an advanced method for improving skin texture and appearance

We also have a range of premium-quality products available from DMK and Skinstitut, including cleansers, creams, masques, serums and a range of specialty products to help you continue taking care of your skin at home – ideal for those who remark “there’s no clinic near me”.

Being ashamed, embarrassed or just not quite happy with your face can lead to a lack of confidence that trickles into other areas of your life. This means that, while they may be skin-deep, conditions like acne and rosacea can have a profound impact on your happiness.

That’s where we come in. The Victorian Laser & Skin Clinic offers leading-edge treatments to treat a range of skin conditions, including:

• Pigmentation (including sun spots, freckles and age spots)
• Acne and acne scarring

Wondering “can I get pigmentation treatment near me?” Contact the Victorian Laser & Skin Clinic to find out how our laser pigmentation removal in Melbourne can effectively eliminate freckles, sunspots and other examples of unsightly skin pigmentation.

Hyperpigmentation refers to the darkening of the skin caused by increased melanin. It presents itself as freckles, AGE SPOTS (or sunspots), and areas of the skin with a generally darker colour.

Many pregnant and pre-menopausal women will also experience melasma, which is characterised by pigmented splotches – usually on the face.

Hyperpigmentation can occur anywhere on the body, but usually appears on the hands or face. Contributors include:

• Genetics
• Some people are genetically predisposed to skin pigmentation.
• Sun damage
• Excessive unprotected exposure to the sun causes damage to the skin. This damage is characterised by freckles, sun spots and age spots.
• Birthmarks
• Birthmarks are areas of pigmented skin caused by an overgrowth of melanin-producing melanocytes. Birthmarks have no specific cause and can be categorised as a benign irregularity.
• Skin trauma
• Skin trauma or damage can cause areas of pigmentation to appear.
• Hormones
• Hormonal fluctuations, such as those experienced during pregnancy, can affect the skin quite significantly.
• General ageing
• The ageing process can often lead to age spots and general skin darkening.

Laser treatment for pigmentation can produce a fast and effective result on any area of the body.

 

At the Victorian Laser & Skin Clinic we provide targeted laser pigmentation removal in Melbourne using laser photo rejuvenation. This method uses Laser light to stimulate skin renewal and rejuvenation, significantly reducing the size and prominence of skin pigmentation.

Treatment involves targeting the melanin in pigmented areas of the skin using pulses of light energy. Melanin is heated and broken down into particles small enough for the body to remove as waste.

 

Other successful treatments include Enzyme Therapy & Chemical Peels.

If you’d like to know more about hyperpigmentation treatment at the Victorian Laser & Skin Clinic, please contact us today. We’re happy to answer any questions you may have, including “which treatment is best for me?” and “is there a clinic in my area?”

Australian Laser Clinic – Laser Pigmentation Removal Melbourne

HOW DOES LASER FACIAL WORK?

At Australia Laser & Skin Clinics we only use the most advanced, non-invasive and up-to-date medical-grade technology in our Laser Resurfacing treatments. The Q-Switched laser is an adaptable premium-engineered aesthetic machine designed for the treatment of a wide variety of skin conditions and concerns.

Q-Switched lasers are known for their photo-mechanical effects, featuring a combination of high power and extremely short pulse widths (less than 20 nanoseconds – one nanosecond is equivalent to one billionth of a second). The effects of the laser energy are due to shockwaves caused at the target, rather than intense heat. This unique process safely breaks down and shatters small particles of ink or pigmentation, which are then removed by the body’s immune system. Due to the nature of Q-Switched Laser Resurfacing the treatment gently heats up the skin, also know as ‘bulk heating’, resulting in stimulation rather than destruction of collagen fibres. Therefore Q-Switched Laser targets a wide variety of skin imperfections, including tattoos, deep pigmentation, facial redness, uneven skin tone and ageing.

Your highly trained and experienced therapist will determine and recommend the frequency of Laser Facial treatments you will need based on your individual skin type and skin concerns. The treatment is non-invasive, almost painless and can be completed in less than 15 minutes.

BENEFITS OF LASER FACIAL

The benefits of a laser Facial treatment extends to many skin types, conditions and concerns. A Laser Facial Treatment at Australian Laser & Skin Clinics utilises laser energy with long wavelengths that is able to penetrate deeply into the skin, minimising destruction of the epidermis and preventing melanogenesis (the production of melanin). The benefit of this is that it is safe and effective for most skin types for the treatment of pigmentation, wrinkles, acne and skin texture. A laser Facial treatment may even be recommended on scarring as it helps to support healthy collagen production. A Laser Facial with the professional team at Australian Laser & Skin Clinics is a suitable option for those that are preparing their skin for an event, want to naturally turn back the clock or improve the texture and tone of their skin.

PIGMENTATION

WHAT IS IT? WHAT ARE CAUSES/ SYMPTOMS and SIGNS?

Hyperpigmentation can be an unwanted consequence of internal physical factors and external factors which can include hormonal changes, sun exposure, skin type, trauma and the skin’s natural ageing process. Presenting as areas of uneven skin tone, darkness, age spots or freckles, pigmentation occurs when excess melanin (skin pigment) has been stimulated. Factors that may contribute to this process can be divided into external, internal and genetic triggers:

WHAT CAUSES PIGMENTATION?

• Sun damage
• Genetics
• Skin type
• Hormones/Pregnancy
• Skin trauma/Injury
• Birthmarks
• Environmental exposure
• Environmental changes
• Friction
• Uric acid (sweat burn)
• Trauma, medications and medical conditions

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PIGMENTATION?

Epidermal Pigmentation (Superficial) usually affects lighter skin tones, and is usually caused by sun damage. Some examples of Superficial pigmentation include:

• Sun spots
• Age spots
• Freckles

Dermal Pigmentation (Deeper) which can be caused by trauma, medications and hormonal factors, can present itself as:

• Pigmented acne scarring
• Birthmarks
• Chloasma/Melasma

Hyperpigmentation is not just restricted to the facial area and commonly presents on the shoulders, neck, décolletage, backs of the hands and bikini area. Pigmentation affects all skin colours and all skin types and conditions. Any form of hyperpigmentation may be further aggressed by sun exposure and the daily use of an SPF30 or greater sunscreen on all affected areas is crucial.

TREATMENT SOLUTIONS:

PHOTO REJUVENATION

Photo Rejuvenation an extremely effective treatment against many forms of pigmentation. Performed with our Medical Grade Intense Pulsed Light Laser or IPL, Photo Rejuvenation is a non-invasive treatment that uses light to absorb melanin (the dark pigment) and haemoglobin (the red colour in your blood vessels). This light converts to heat, which damages the target cells without disrupting the skins surface. After treatment of pigmented areas they will go darker sometimes almost black, then will fall off within 7 to 28 days (depending on the area of the body) or it will just gradually fade.

CHEMICAL PEELS

Chemical Peels are an exceptional choice for the treatment of hyperpigmentation. The Australian Laser & Skin Clinics offers many different types of chemical peels that are specifically formulated to help even out the overall skin tone, treat hyperpigmintation, fine lines and wrinkles, while leaving the skin hydrated.

SKIN NEEDLING

Skin Needling is highly effective for treating hyperpigmentation on dark skin colours. This multitasking treatment creates rejuvenating micro channels into the skin to promote a more balances and normalised cellular function. As melanocytes (pigment producing cells) are directly targeted, a repair and corrective process encourages an even skin tone creating a radiant appearance.

LOW LEVEL LASER THERAPY (LLLT)

LLLT is a medical grade cold laser that reduces the formation of hyperpigmentation without heat or discomfort. LLLT works within the skin to balance over-active melanocytes (pigment producing cells) and sun damaged cells. Afetr a series of treatments the complexion cumulatively becomes clearer and more radiant with increased luminosity. LLLT is another treatment that is highly effective for treating hyperpigmentation on dark skin colours.

COSMELAN

Cosmelan is a highly innovative system that gently targets and treats unwanted pigmentation on the face and body. The two-phase intensive treatment programme firstly involves the application of a highly potent depigmenting mask. This is applied at the clinic and it is not washed off for up to 6-10 hours following application (dependent on skin type). The second treatment phase is an at-home maintenance cream that should be applied twice daily to enhance the effects of the mask.

This safe and non-invasive procedure treats the source of pigment formation to deliver a rapidly clearer, brighter and more clarified complexion.

LASER FACIAL

Laser Facial uses Q-Switched Laser technology which uses combination of high power and short pulse widths (less than 20 nanoseconds – one nanosecond is equivalent to one billionth of a second) that deliver energy throughout the layers of the epidermis, faster than the normal relaxation time of the tissue. This process safely breaks down and shatters small particles comprising the discolouration or skin lesion, which are then later removed by the body’s immune system.

CARBON LASER PEEL

Carbon Laser Peel is the application of specialised laser energy to reduce visible skin age spots, pigmentation and improve skin tone.

The laser energy works in two ways, first it gently targets the melanin (pigmentation/age spots) in the cells breaking it up for your body’s natural removal processes, and second it heats deep in the dermis causing the skin to contract and stimulate collagen.

Laser pigmentation removal

We all love to spend time outdoors, but as we get older we can develop excess pigmentation in the form of age spots, skin sun spots or freckles. Excessive exposure to sunlight, environmental factors, hormones, injuries, medications, acne and your skin type may all contribute to the development of dark spots, hyper pigmentation and freckles. In addition, brown patches known as Melasma can appear on the face due to hormonal changes during pregnancy. Pigmentation is usually first noticeable on the hands, as we tend to forget to apply sun protection to our hands over our lifetimes. The skin of the face, neck and décolleté are also places where signs of ageing show earlier, as they also receive heavy sun expose.(Note: if hyper pigmentation is found in areas that are not normally exposed to the sun, it’s advisable to have this checked out by a doctor.)

If you’re wondering how to get rid of sunspots, freckles or other types of pigmentation, Medix Skincare & Laser Clinic can help. We offer pigmentation removal using the UltraPlus VPL laser system. Treatments at our sunspot clinic are safe and non-invasive and work by inducing a healing response which lightens the appearance of pigmented skin without damaging it.

What is VPL laser pigmentation / freckle removal?

VPL laser pigmentation removal is designed so that each light pulse consists of a sequence of rapid shorter pulses. These variable pulses ensure controlled absorption of laser light by the melanin in the skin, while the surrounding skin remains cool. The excess melanin in the hyper-pigmented area is broken down and cleared away by the waste disposal system of the body.

VPL laser produces excellent results for the face, hands and décolleté. Our sun damage treatment not only clears pigmentation and thread veins, but will also remove freckles and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The heat stimulates the skin to go into “repair mode”, whereby the increase in blood flow to the region brings in fresh supplies of oxygen and nutrients to the cells and stimulates the production of collagen.

What happens during VPL laser pigmentation removal?

Written consent from a doctor is essential before commencing laser pigmentation removal or laser freckle removal. First, the treated area is cleared of make-up and hairs. A cooling gel is then applied in order to provide the required optical coupling and to maintain cooling on the skin being treated. The VPL laser hand piece is then passed over the skin of the targeted area with no pressure. During the skin pigmentation treatment, a bright light of the laser is released. This light travels through the skin and heats the dermal tissues without disruption or removal of the outer epidermal layers of the skin. This results in a visible reduction in unwanted pigmentation.

The longer wavelengths of the VPL laser light penetrate deeply, stimulating the cells to produce extra collagen which leads to a tightening of overly pigmented areas. Depending on your skin sensitivity, you may experience a slight stinging sensation in the area treated during the procedure, but there is far less discomfort than with laser or IPL treatments.

Since the melanin strongly absorbs the light in the epidermis, laser pigmentation treatment is only suitable for people with skin types 1-4 with no significant tan. If the pigment in question is due to sun damage, as on the back of the hands and the décolleté, then it should easily respond, along with superficial freckles. Pigment sitting deeper in the dermis is not likely to respond.

The hands, arms and décolleté usually respond well to laser sun spot removal. After about half an hour, the treated areas will start to darken. By 24 hours, they will turn even darker and may crust before gradually fading or flaking until the pigments have disappeared or lightened. The area is renewed after 10 to 14 days.

Are there any contraindications for VPL or laser treatment?

• Taking Accutane or similar medication
• Taking blood thinning medication
• Pregnancy or breast feeding during the first few months
• Any injectable or fillers in the last 72 hours
• Cold sore or fever blister without premedication
• Facial peels or waxing within 7 to 14 days
• Having type I diabetes
• Recent sun exposure or spray tanning or solarium
• Skin cancer
• Epilepsy
• Photosensitising drugs
• Wearing a pacemaker
• Allergies
• Lack of skin temperature

How many VPL laser pigmentation treatments are recommended?

Sometimes one session is sufficient, but three or four may be required spaced at least 4 weeks apart.

What should I do before and after VPL pigmentation or freckle removal?

A doctor’s written consent is required before the treatment can be given.

It’s important to avoid direct sun exposure, spray tanning or sun beds for 6 weeks before and after the treatment. If being exposed to the sun is unavoidable, a high SPF sunscreen should be applied. You should also avoid waxing, peeling or any kind of skin resurfacing for 2 to 3 weeks before and after your pigmentation or freckle removal in Melbourne.

Don’t do any heavy or sweaty workouts within 24 hours of the treatment, and don’t have a hot shower for 24 hours. Treated areas should be cared for by gentle washing with soap and water without scrubbing or rubbing. Don’t scratch or pick the area, as this can lead to scars. Don’t apply any make-up until swelling and discomfort is resolved, and don’t do the dishes for 3 to 4 days after pigmentation or sunspot removal on the hands. It’s also recommended that you wear cotton gloves for driving.

Are there any side effects of VPL laser treatment?

The pigmented areas will darken immediately or during the first few hours and will remain dark for a few days before being shed from the skin surface. Following your pigmentation or skin sun spots treatment, you may feel quite sunburnt and the treated area may be red for up to several hours. Some clients may experience swelling which goes away within a few days. Treated pigmented areas may develop a crust, which can last from 3 days to 2-3 weeks. A cool compress immediately after treatment will relieve any swelling or burnt feeling. Applying a cooling gel such as aloe vera or tea tree can help, but don’t use any products with anti-inflammatory properties, as these can interfere with the pigmentation removal process. Taking antioxidants and vitamins A, E and C can be beneficial.

You will be asked to remove your make-up or moisturisers, lie down on a couch, and to put special goggles on to protect your eyes. The areas to be treated can be numbed with a topical anaesthetic cream. The therapist will pass a laser beam over the treatment area.

Laser rejuvenation utilises an intense beam of light to deliver energy to your skin. The laser focuses on problem areas such as redness, mottled complexion, sun damage, brown spots and freckles or can be used to treat a whole area.

It heats up the area to encourage new skin to grow. It works beneath your epidermis to stimulate collagen growth.

Our Liberty Belle Skin Centre clinicians will customise a plan to suit your individual skin’s needs.

You will be asked to remove your make-up or moisturisers, lie down on a couch, and to put special goggles on to protect your eyes. The areas to be treated can be numbed with a topical anaesthetic cream. The therapist will pass a laser beam over the treatment area.

The procedure can last from a few minutes to an hour and a half, depending on the size of the area being treated.

Immediately following treatment, brown spots will start to darken and skin may appear slightly red and mildly swollen. This resolves over the next few hours and makeup can be applied to cover the redness. Within 1 – 3 weeks the darkened spots will flake off and fade leaving a rejuvenated skin appearance. Any diffuse redness will decrease and your complexion will improve. New spots and redness may appear with ongoing sun damage, but these too can be prevented or treated. One to three IPL laser skin (resurfacing) treatments at our Melbourne skin centre are usually sufficient to see results. Additional treatments may be necessary for very large or dark spots, densely freckled areas or excessively sun-damaged skin.

One of the most common laser treatments we treat is Laser Pigmentation Removal Melbourne. Located in Melbourne CBD, we provide laser pigmentation removal Melbourne in the nearby suburbs of Emporium, QV, Highpoint, Abbotsford, Carlton, Richmond, St Kilda, Glen Iris, Hawthorn, Brunswick, Toorak and surrounding areas.

The term laser for pigmenatation refers to the use of lasers to lighten the appearance of pigmentation in various areas of the body. This treatment is referred to as a therapeutic laser resurfacing or TRS.

Dermatologists and plastic surgeons often use this procedure because it allows them to treat patients with any type of skin disease, infection, or birthmark. This is done to treat small bumps or other places that the skin’s collagen fibers may have broken or weakened.

Laser for pigmentation focuses on melasma, freckles, age spots, acne scars, and sun damage with effective and safe laser or IPL pigmentation treatments.

Pigmentation enhances how old we look much more than wrinkles.

It can effectively and safely minimise the appearance of pigmentation, freckles, and after-trauma pigmentation like age spots and acne scars. Laser pigmentation removal helps in treating these conditions by fragmenting and targeting the chosen imperfection without creating any damage to the tissue surrounding the skin.

 Pigmentation signifies coloring. Skin pigmentation disorders influence the color of the skin. Your skin gets its color from a pigment known as melanin. When these cells become damaged or damaged, it impacts melanin production. Some pigmentation disorders affect only spots of skin.

While increased pigmentation isn’t harmful, it may be a sign of another health condition. One of the types of pigmentation is melasma, which is thought to result from hormonal changes and might grow during pregnancy.

Regions of pigmentation can occur on almost any region of the human body, but they seem most commonly on the gut and face. Also referred to as liver stains or solar lentigines, sunspots are typical.

They are associated with excessive sun exposure with time. Normally, they look like spots on areas exposed to sunlight, such as the face and hands. This is a consequence of inflammation or injury to the skin. A frequent cause of the sort is acne.

• Sun harm
• Genetics
• Hormones/Pregnancy
• Skin Care trauma/Injury
• Birthmarks
• Environmental vulnerability
• Environmental changes
• Friction
• Trauma, medicines and medical conditions

 

Sun exposure is the leading cause of hyperpigmentation because it is sunlight that activates the creation of melanin in the first place. Melanin acts as the own skin’s natural sunscreen by shielding you from harmful rays, and that’s the reason why folks tan in sunlight. But excessive sunlight exposure can interrupt this process, resulting in hyperpigmentation.

Laser Pigmentation Removal functions to safely and effectively reduce the appearance of freckles, pigmentation, and post-trauma pigmentation such as acne scars and age spots. The laser targets only the pigmented lesion in the skin that absorbs the light, without damaging the surrounding skin.

The laser heats up and shatters the pigment. The pigment is then attracted to the surface without damaging the surrounding tissues. Once attracted to the surface, the pigmented lesions will dry or fade and flake off the treated region, leaving skin with an even complexion and tone.

Collins Laser Clinic Melbourne CBD uses Fotona technology which unites multiple wavelengths in 1 treatment, allowing us to target and treat a broader variety of pigments. The laser has the highest-energy, single-pulse engineering, powered to eliminate surface pigmentation and profound vascular damage. This means better outcomes for your pigmentation removal. It’s by far the most innovative Q-Switched laser readily available to take care of psoriasis, melasma, vascular damage, and uneven skin tone.

• Freckles
• Sunspots
• Brown spots
• Acne scars
• Any other type of pigmentation

• Reverses Sun Damage Signs
• Helps in reducing the presence of pigmentation, blotched, and brown spots, on the body or face.
• Minimises Stretch Marks & Scarring
• Maintain a youthful and equal-looking skin by removing all unwanted pigmentation.
• Effective & Saf

While it is important to keep your skin protected and looking its best, laser pigmentation removal does have some side effects.

Some of the side effects include:

• Mild swelling
• Redness for 3-4 days

The recommended laser pigmentation removal recovery time is 3 -4 days with little to no sun exposure and then applying a lot of SP50+ sunscreen after the treatment.

In order to remove pigmentation, you require specific laser treatments. Get a free consultation and we shall let you know what is the best treatment for you. 

This occurs due to the increase in melanin. This may occur due to sun damage or other factors such as an increase in the level of hormones in your body.

 

Instantly post-treatment you can expect to see some moderate redness. You may also find a few of the pigmentation spots (freckles) turn darker. This is normal and the pigment naturally drops off the surface of the skin over seven to 14 days depending upon your skin cell turnover.

The number of treatments you require may vary, depending on the number of freckles and discoloration spots. It is common to require 2-3 treatments.

Some patients report feeling a slight stinging sensation during their treatment followed by some redness which usually settles in 2-4 hours.

Laser Facial

Is your skin looking dull and tired? Pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles are surfacing? Restore your skin’s ‘bounce’ and exude youthful luminosity and uniformity with our Laser Facial!

• $100

Our FDA-approved Laser Facial uses the Medlite C6 Q-Switch technology to provide advanced skin rejuvenation with no downtime! As it does not damage the outer layer of the skin, there is no risk of scarring or damage. Some redness may be visible immediately after the treatment, but this should subside within an hour. 

This non-thermal treatment uses photoacoustic technology, creating smoother, healthier skin while stimulating collagen production. It targets a range of common skin concerns, including ageing, enlarged pores, acne scarring, pigmentation, and sun damage. 

The Laser Facial is also pain-free. Most clients liken the sensation to warm water passing across their skin and report it to be a relaxing experience.

Perfect for:

• Dull Skin
• Pigmentation, sunspots and melasma
• Uneven skin texture and pores.
• Fine line and wrinkles

Can’t seem to get rid of the redness and rosacea? Want to diffuse the redness to restore the skin’s youthful glow and appearance. Then this treatment is for you, more to love, it also boosts the skin’s hydration level and smoothes out fine lines and wrinkles!

• $300

Laser Genesis is one of the most popular lasers to be performed. Hailed as the ultimate “lunchtime treatment”, this non-invasive treatment can effectively treat fine lines, wrinkles, diffused redness, and reduce rosacea and scarring with minimal downtime. The laser stimulates collagen production and new skin cell growth to smooth fine wrinkles, shrink pore size and close the tiny capillaries and veins that cause the redness of rosacea

This laser facial involves the gentle heating of the upper dermis – the layer just below the skin’s surface. This heating process stimulates the formation of new collagen and elastin, which reduces the appearance of sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles.

Perfect for

• Rosacea and redness
• Sensitive skin
• Uneven skin texture and pores
• Dry and dehydrated skin
• Fine lines and Wrinkles

 

Laser Pigmentation Removal – How to Prepare and What to Expect

Preparing For Your Laser Pigmentation Removal Treatment

Follow these guidelines unless your laser technician directs otherwise.

• We ask that you are freshly showered or bathed with completely clean skin, without lotions, oils, creams or fragrances of any kind before coming in. If there is excessive hair in the treatment area, we recommend shaving the area prior to treatment.
• Avoid sun exposure to the treatment area, and do not use UV tanning beds at all for four weeks before treatment. The use of self-tanning skin care products must be discontinued 2 weeks prior to treatment, and any residual self-tanner must be removed in order to perform the treatment.
• Numbing agents may not be used in the treatment area as it can interfere with the efficacy of treatment.
• Use a broad-spectrum sunblock with an SPF of 30 or above on a daily basis (rain or shine).
• Do not use any topical products that cause photosensitivity (e.g. hydroxy acids, salicylic acid, retinols, and benzoyl peroxide) in the treatment areas for three days before treatment. Use a gentle cleanser and lotion on treated areas.
• Follow instructions regarding all oral prescription medications that we provided at your medical laser consultation. If you are taking any new or different medications, including antibiotics, contact our office prior to your appointment.

What to Expect During Your Laser Pigmentation Removal Appointment

Following the consultation, if we determine you are a good candidate, we will proceed with treatment. Your laser technician will begin by asking a few pertinent questions about your recent health history to ensure there are no contraindications for treatment. The technician will discuss your treatment desires and at that time you can specifically let us know what pigmentation you would like to treat. The treatment area will be cleansed and prepared for treatment. Your technician will talk you through the treatment to ensure you won’t experience any surprises.

While receiving laser pigmentation removal, you will be required to wear protective eyewear. You may still be able to see a flash of light, but your eyes will be completely covered. The laser technicians wear protective eyewear, as well. During the treatment, all areas of the body that will not be lasered will be covered with clothing. Only the areas to receive laser treatment will be exposed. We are always mindful of your comfort and your peace of mind; we will let you know ahead of time what to expect.

The treatment can be performed in as little as 15 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Most patients experience little discomfort while receiving this laser treatment. Following treatment you may feel a little discomfort, but generally people experience redness, mild swelling and tenderness in treatment area that will resolve in a quick manner. The post treatment area response will vary from patient to patient depending on the extent of treatment.

After Your Laser Pigmentation Removal Treatment

• Erythema (redness), edema (swelling), scabbing, flaking, irritation or blistering in treatment area will most likely occur. This may persist for several days. A white-gray discoloration of the treatment area may appear immediately following treatment and last for a few minutes to a few days. Your pigmentation may darken, lighten, fade or even appear to have no change immediately post-treatment. Laser pigmentation removal works by eliminating pigment in the surface of the skin through the body’s lymphatic system. Your pigmentation may darken, lighten, fade or even appear to have no change immediately post-treatment. On average, it takes 4-6 weeks for your body to process the pigment. Multiple treatments may be necessary to achieve the desired results.
• Discomfort may be relieved by taking an over the counter pain reliever or by using ice packs or cool compresses in 20-30 minute intervals.
• Avoid sun exposure to the treatment area throughout the course of your laser treatments. If sun exposure is necessary, keep treatment area covered with a non-adherent bandage. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, and do not use UV tanning beds at all for four weeks after treatment.
• Once per day uses a gentle soap to cleanse treatment area and pat dry. To keep the treatment area moist, apply Post Laser Gel or hydrocortisone twice per day for 7-10 days post treatment, or until the treatment area is healed.
• If scabbing occurs, it is very important not to pick, shave, rub, scratch or aggressively wash the area to prevent possible scarring. If blistering occurs, do not drain blisters. Allow them to dry and heal on their own. Care should be taken to prevent trauma to the treated area for the first 7-10 days following treatment.
• Physical exercise (aerobics, sports activities) should be discontinued for 1 to 2 days. Rough physical activities (playing football) should be discontinued for 10 days post-treatment.
• Return in 4-6 weeks for assessment.
