q-Switch Nd:YAG Laser

The Q-switched laser is used to lighten up melasma, other  unwanted brown spots, sun freckles, or tattoos from your skin. The laser energy pulse, which is in billionths of a second, releases the pigment into the skin so it can be naturally reabsorbed and disposed of by the body.

This laser has been used to address:

Melasma
Tattoos
Acquired, Bilateral Nevus of Ota-like Macules (ABNOM)
Nevus of Ota
Becker’s Nevus
Lentigo
Freckles
Uneven Skin Tone
Cafe au Lait spots
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation of Skin (PIH)
Sun Damage Skin
Onychomycosis (Nail Fungus)

It is important to allow adequate time for results to occur. Melasma treatment is a gradual process that requires 8-10 sessions to produce effective results. With no downtime and minimal side effects, you may immediately return to your daily activities.
