Laser Treatment for Pigmentation in London
Achieve clear and even skin by reducing hyperpigmentation and improving scarring on the face and body with laser-assisted pigment removal.
Whether your hyperpigmentation is from sun damage, skin injury, or acne scars, the energy transmitted from the laser disperses the excess pigment, enabling it to be reabsorbed and excreted naturally by the body.
A course of treatments is usually needed to fully disperse the excess pigment, but once removed the results are permanent.
Depending on personal preference and the size or location of the problem area, numbing cream may be applied to help ease discomfort during the procedure.
Note – laser-assisted pigment removal is not a suitable treatment for melasma. Your skin concerns and suitability for this procedure will be discussed with you at your initial consultation.
Some common contraindications include pregnancy, certain medical conditions/medications, recent sun exposure, active skin infection or open wounds, and keloid or hypertrophic scarring. This is not a full list, and your suitability for treatment will be assessed during your consultation.
