Each pigment has a different cause and responds to a different laser.
In particular, freckles do not improve well with a single treatment, so “consistent complex management” is important, and spots, lentigo, and freckles respond relatively well to laser treatment.

 

1) First, understand the characteristics of each pigment.

Pigment treatment begins with “exactly identifying the type of pigment I have.”

● Mole

• It is easily removed cleanly with a laser.

• If it is cosmetically disturbing, removal may be considered.

● Lentigo

• A dark, dark brown pigment.

• It is often caused by exposure to sunlight.

• It is the cause of looking old, so removing it will brighten your impression.

● Melasma

• Good looking due to UV rays + genetics + hormonal changes.

• It is especially common in women. Difficult to completely disappear .

• Laser, peeling, whitening functional products, etc. Complex management is essential .

● Freckles

• Genetic influence is very large.

• Darkens due to UV rays and hormonal changes.

• Although the laser response is good like a dot, whether to remove it or not is a personal choice.

● Sebaceous cyst / Sebaceous cyst

• Sebaceous cysts: small white bumps formed by dead skin cells.

• Syringoma: A benign tumor that arises from a sweat gland.

• Neither of them poses a health problem, but they are often removed for cosmetic reasons.

● Black fungus / Rat milk

• Common due to aging and exposure to ultraviolet rays.

• Many removals are for cosmetic purposes.

 

2) When is it best to receive pigment treatment?

• Recommended for fall and winter. Avoiding strong sunlight makes recovery safer and faster.
