How is pigment treated here?

Diagnose, then pick the wavelength.

Pigment treatment begins with diagnosis, because melasma, sun spots and dermal pigment respond to different wavelengths and energies — treating them the same way causes rebound, especially with melasma. With a full range of lasers on one floor, a dermatologist reads the pigment type and depth and chooses toning, a Q-switched or pico laser, IPL, or a combined plan. Melasma is managed gently over a series, and darker skin uses careful settings to avoid post-inflammatory pigmentation.

Pigment questions

Frequently asked questions

How many sessions does melasma need?
Melasma is managed long-term with gentle toning over a series plus home care; it is controlled rather than cured in one course.
Can freckles and age spots be removed permanently?
Most discrete spots clear in 1–3 targeted sessions, though new ones can appear with sun exposure.
What is the difference between IPL and laser toning?
IPL broadly improves tone, texture and redness; laser toning targets pigment more specifically. A dermatologist advises which suits you.
Is pigment laser safe for darker skin?
Yes, with lower energy and longer intervals, set by a dermatologist to avoid pigment changes.
Will the pigment come back?
Sun-induced pigment can recur without protection; melasma fluctuates with sun and hormones. Maintenance and sunscreen keep results stable.
Do you offer multilingual consultations?
Yes — English, Japanese and Chinese. Send close-up photos in natural light for a plan.
