Pigmentation: Types & Advanced Laser Treatments What is Pigmentation? Pigmentation refers to skin discolouration caused by excess melanin — the pigment responsible for skin colour. When melanin is unevenly distributed or overproduced, it results in dark spots, patches, or uneven skin tone. Types of Pigmentation 🔹 Melasma Symmetrical, brown or greyish patches on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip. Often triggered by hormones, pregnancy, birth control, or sun exposure. 🔹 Sunspots (Solar Lentigines) Flat, brown spots due to cumulative sun damage. Common on sun-exposed areas like the face, hands, and shoulders. 🔹 Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) Dark marks left after acne, injury, trauma or skin irritation. Frequently affects acne-prone or sensitive skin. 🔹 Freckles Small, light-brown spots that darken with sun exposure. More common in lighter skin tones; usually genetic. 🔹 Age Spots Larger, darker areas caused by aging and UV exposure. Often appear in people over 40. Treatment Options 🧴 Topical Creams & Serums Ingredients: Hydroquinone, Retinol, Vitamin C, Azelaic Acid Help fade pigmentation gradually with consistent use. 🧪 Chemical Peels Removes surface layers to reveal clearer skin. Includes glycolic, salicylic, or TCA peels. 💡 Laser Pigmentation Treatment (Clinic Highlight) Lasers offer precise, highly effective solutions for stubborn pigmentation. ✅ How Laser Works: Targets melanin with light energy Breaks down pigment into particles naturally cleared by the body Stimulates collagen and skin renewal ⭐ Our Laser Technologies: Q-Switched Nd:YAG Laser: Great for melasma, freckles, PIH Fractional Laser (CO2 Laser): For deep pigmentation and aging signs IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): Broad-spectrum solution for mild pigmentation (for brighter skin) 🔬 What is a Picosecond Laser? A picosecond laser delivers ultra-short bursts of laser energy — in picoseconds (one trillionth of a second) — which is much faster than traditional nanosecond Q-switched lasers. This rapid pulse allows the laser to shatter pigment particles into finer fragments with less heat, making it gentler and safer on the surrounding skin. 🎯 How It Treats Pigmentation The laser energy specifically targets melanin in unwanted pigmentation (such as freckles, melasma, sunspots, and PIH). It works in two main ways: Photoacoustic Effect (Mechanical breakdown) Breaks down pigmentation mechanically, not thermally. Less risk of surrounding tissue damage or rebound pigmentation. Skin Remodelling Stimulates collagen and elastin production. Improves overall skin tone, texture, and brightness. ✅ Benefits of Picosecond Laser for Pigmentation More Effective: Breaks down pigment more efficiently than traditional lasers. Fewer Sessions: Visible improvement often in 2–4 sessions. Safe for All Skin Types: Lower risk of burns or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Minimal Downtime: Redness and mild swelling resolve within 1–2 days. Dual Action: Treats both pigmentation and skin rejuvenation simultaneously. 📌 Common Conditions Treated Freckles Sunspots (solar lentigines) Melasma (with caution and customized protocols) Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) Age spots Pigmented acne scars 💬 What to Expect During Treatment Duration: 15–45 minutes depending on treatment area Sensation: Mild snapping or heat, usually well-tolerated Recovery: Slight redness; normal activities resume same day or next Results: Gradual lightening over several weeks as pigment is cleared by the body 🧴 Post-Treatment Care Use SPF 50+ daily Avoid strong actives (retinol, acids) for 5–7 days Hydrate and moisturize well Avoid sun and tanning for at least 1 week 🏥 Why Choose Picosecond Laser at Our Clinic?

✨ Banish Thread Veins — Reveal Your Glow ✨

Thread veins — sometimes called spider veins — are tiny, visible blood vessels just beneath the skin’s surface. They can appear red, purple, or blue, most often on the face, legs, and ankles, but can occur anywhere. They’re not usually dangerous, but they can be bothersome cosmetically. 🔍 Why They Appear Several factors can cause or worsen thread veins: Genetics — a strong hereditary link Sun exposure — UV rays weaken vessel walls over time Age — skin becomes thinner, making vessels more visible Hormonal changes — pregnancy, menopause, or birth control Lifestyle — prolonged standing, hot environments, alcohol, or high-impact exercise Medical conditions — rosacea, injuries, or circulation problems ⚠️ If Left Untreated While small thread veins are usually harmless, ignoring them can sometimes lead to: Gradual increase in number and size of visible veins Skin redness and uneven tone becoming more permanent Possible itching, irritation, or swelling in affected areas In leg veins, possible link to poor circulation or underlying venous insufficiency Early treatment can make removal easier and prevent progression. 💎 Treatment Options There’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach — the best treatment depends on vein size, depth, and location: Laser Therapy — Ideal for fine, superficial facial and leg veins. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) — Effective for diffuse redness or multiple tiny vessels. Microsclerotherapy — A tiny injection that seals off small leg veins (not used on the face). Electrolysis / Thermocoagulation — Uses heat to close off tiny vessels. 🌸 How We Help When you come to see us, we don’t just treat “what you see.” We look at why the veins are there and what will work best for your skin.
