Specialist Laser Pigmentation Removal in Sittingbourne

How does Pigment Removal treatment work?

The quick bursts of laser energy are quickly taken up by the high levels of melanin found in areas with pigmentation, like melasma and age spots. The heat from this fast absorption of light energy damages the cells rich in melanin without harming the superficial layer of skin.

The laser light triggers a production of collagen from inside your skin, encouraging the growth of new and healthy skin cells. As your current skin is shed off, a scab may form - with the dark pigmented blemish also being removed.

How does the treatment feel?

Our patients have reported feeling delighted with the tolerance of any discomfort during the procedure, especially as it doesn't require anaesthesia.

How many treatments are necessary?

The exact amount of pigment removal treatments can vary, generally taking place at intervals of four to six weeks. The specifics depend on the pigmented lesion.
