25.08.22 Yesarang Skin Clinic

Recently, I suddenly developed dark spots on my arms which made me self-conscious every time I wore clothes, so I eventually went to Yesarang Dermatology. I thought it would fade away with time, but it seemed like the edges were becoming clearer, which worried me. When I arrived at the clinic, I was greeted in a clean atmosphere and was directed right away, so I went into the consultation room without any waiting time. The doctor asked me about when the pigmentation started, any irritation, sun exposure, and more, in order to accurately diagnose the type of pigmentation.

View moreI'm worried about marks and scars that look like pigmentation from back acne.[15]
I am worried about my teenage son's back acne scars and marks caused by hormone secretion during adolescence. My son's face and hair tend to get oily quickly because of his sebaceous skin. Oily skin male, perhaps because of that, I have a lot of oil and developed acne on my face, as well as back acne and chest acne. My child was extremely stressed because of back acne, but after applying back acne medication and managing it, it has improved a lot compared to before. However, the raised pimples have subsided significantly, but I am worried about the dark scars and marks left on the back after the acne. I am concerned about the pigmentation deposits and scars on the areas where the back acne occurred.ㅜㅜ Since I am in my teenage years, back acne doesn't go away quickly, and even with medication, the scars and marks left by the acne don't noticeably improve, which makes me very upset and worried. Applying scar treatment and scar therapy products to facial acne scars, as well as to other areas... The acne scars on my back are not fading easily. Even after applying medication, the scars and marks from back acne do not heal immediately, so I am very concerned and worried.
쭈224.12.29Views 346Likes 7 I would like to know the effectiveness and number of laser sessions for skin pigmentation caused by neglect.
Hello. Perhaps due to my neglect of skincare, I noticed dull pigmentation appearing in various spots on my legs. They have settled unevenly like blemishes, making my appearance look messy, and since they do not lighten at all with home care, I am considering laser treatment. I searched online and found there are many types, such as toning and pico lasers. I am wondering if lasers are definitely effective for hyperpigmentation that developed from neglect, like mine. Typically, how many repeated treatments are required to return to a clear skin tone and start seeing noticeable changes? As a working professional, I am concerned that the procedure might interfere with my daily life or walking. If anyone has actually seen improvement in pigmentation with laser treatment, I would appreciate your valuable advice on the average number of treatment sessions and duration!

Now that summer has arrived and clothes are getting shorter, due to knee pigmentation I'm worried about this. What kind of treatments do dermatologists usually provide? I'm also curious if they prescribe things like whitening ointments. Usually, is laser treatment necessary for it to be effective? I'm curious if areas with a lot of friction, like the knees, can also improve.
들꽃726.05.25Views 25Likes 1 Has anyone experienced hyperpigmentation after laser treatment?[1]
I want to get laser treatment at a dermatology clinic for blemishes, freckles, and enlarged pores, but my biggest concern is hyperpigmentation. Looking at the reviews, there are many people who say their skin became clearer, but conversely, I also frequently see posts from those who suffered because the marks actually became darker or discolored brown after the procedure. My skin is particularly sensitive, so I can't easily make a decision because I'm worried that getting the procedure might just cause me more stress. Has anyone experienced hyperpigmentation after a laser procedure? Which laser treatment was received I wonder when the pigmentation started. How long it lasted Whether it improved with treatment or management How important was UV protection or regeneration care? I'm also curious if people with darker or sensitive skin have a higher risk of pigmentation.

[Health Column] Horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose and drooping eyelids, why do they occur together? The solution is 'forehead lift'! ✨[6]
hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. Have you ever been worried about sagging upper eyelids, only to be flustered when you suddenly discovered deep horizontal wrinkles etched on the bridge of your nose? They seem like concerns about completely different body parts, but in fact, these two are Descent of forehead tissue It is often a concern that originates from a single root. Today, let's explore the root cause of that heavy expression and how to solve it together! 🫧 Why do drooping eyelids and wrinkles on the bridge of the nose always appear as a set? ? 🟢 This is because the forehead tissue, pulled down by gravity, causes the structure around the eyes to collapse. Over time, facial tissues lose elasticity and gradually sag downward due to the influence of gravity. In particular, when the forehead and eyebrows sag downward, the skin of the upper eyelids overlaps, eyelid drooping This appears. The problem doesn't end here! When our vision is obstructed by drooping eyelids, we unconsciously try to open our eyes wide. Repeatedly use the forehead and glabella muscles You will end up doing it. In this process Horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose It is about settling deeply. 💡 It is easier to understand if you think of it not simply as a problem with the eyelids, but as a 'chain reaction' starting from the forehead! What exactly is the role of a forehead lift? ? 🟢 It restores sagging forehead and eyebrows to their original positions, improving the fundamental structure. . Forehead lifting is not simply a surgery to pull the skin. The goal is to restore balance to the upper face by entirely rearranging the tissue layers supporting the forehead and eyebrows. • Natural improvement : When the eyebrows are raised, the overlapping eyelids naturally spread out. ✨ • Muscle tension relief : You no longer need to overuse your forehead muscles to open your eyes. • Wrinkle reduction : As muscle overuse is reduced, you can expect the horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose and between the eyebrows to soften. What is the right forehead lift method for me? ? 🟢 The incision method varies depending on the individual forehead width and problem areas. To achieve natural and long-lasting effects, you must move the muscles and soft tissues together, rather than simply tightening the skin. 🔹 Endoscopic forehead lift : We make only a small incision inside the scalp and use an endoscope to precisely dissect and fix the tissue. 🔹 Incisional forehead lift : It is a method of making an incision along the hairline or scalp to directly pull and fix the tissue. 🔹 Hairline correction combined : If you are concerned about a wide forehead, the hairline position is adjusted simultaneously with the forehead lift. What changes can I expect after a forehead lift? ? 🟢 You can achieve not only distinct eyes but also an overall soft and bright impression. ✔️ Droopy eyebrows are lifted, making the heavy eye look refreshing. ✔️ The habit of tensing your forehead to open your eyes is corrected, and forehead wrinkles are alleviated. 📌 ✔️ Reduced tension on the glabella and bridge of the nose improves horizontal wrinkles. ✔️ It has the effect of making the overall impression clearer and brighter. ⚠️ However, please keep in mind that the degree of improvement may vary depending on skin elasticity and individual structure! Are there any precautions or side effects for a forehead lift? ? 🟢 As with all surgeries, changes during the recovery process and skilled diagnosis are essential. ! 📍 recovery process : Swelling and bruising may persist for about 1 to 2 weeks after surgery. 📍 sensory change : The sensation in the forehead or scalp may be temporarily dulled, but in most cases, it recovers over time. 📍 Medical staff The importance of : Caution is required, as asymmetry or excessive elevation may occur if the medical team lacks surgical experience. Thinking that "simply having eye surgery will solve everything" can be dangerous. This is because if the cause lies in the forehead, eyelid surgery alone may not yield satisfactory results. Who do you recommend a forehead lift to? ? 🟢 If you are having these concerns, a forehead lift can be an effective alternative! ✅ Suitable cases • Those whose eyelids and eyebrows have sagged simultaneously • Those whose wrinkles deepen due to the habit of opening their eyes using their forehead muscles • Those who repeatedly develop horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose or between the eyebrows • Those who are concerned about their eyes looking dull and their impression looking heavy ⚠️ Cases requiring caution • Cases where only the eyelid skin itself is stretched (upper blepharoplasty may be more suitable) • Those with severe chronic diseases or hemorrhagic disorders • Those with unrealistic expectations regarding the surgical outcome FAQ Q1. Does the horizontal wrinkle on the bridge of the nose definitely improve as well? A1. Yes, in many cases, it improves! The principle is that wrinkles are naturally alleviated as the habit of excessively tensing the muscles around the nose when opening the eyes disappears. However, deep wrinkles may require additional care. Q2. I'm worried that I'll have a lot of scars after the surgery. A2. Most incisions are made inside the scalp or along the hairline, so they are not easily visible from the outside. Although there are variations depending on individual constitution and care, the surgery is performed in a way that minimizes the burden of scarring. Q3. Do the effects last a lifetime? A3. Forehead lifting improves structural causes, so the effects last for a relatively long time. However, since the aging process continues even after surgery, some changes may appear after a very long time. Conclusion ✨ Forehead lift It is a surgery that goes beyond simple cosmetic purposes to harmoniously improve functional discomfort of the eyes and the overall impression. Do not view drooping eyelids and wrinkles on the bridge of the nose as separate issues, Approach based on the entire upper facial structure Doing so can be a fundamental solution. ✨ Accurate diagnosis comes first. : It is important to distinguish whether the cause is the eyelids or the eyebrows. ✨ Selecting skilled medical staff : Consult with an expert who has a good understanding of facial anatomy. ✨ natural impression : It is better to plan within a range that suits you rather than being overly ambitious.

백인수 원장26.04.21Views 100Likes 3 [Health Column] Differences Between Ostem Implant Grades and a Guide to Choosing the Right Type for You[4]
hello! Lee Hyeon-seop, Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. ✨ More than 90% of people who visit the dentist look for ‘Ostem’ first. When you actually start counseling, there are many cases where people are confused by the words, “There are several levels.” The implant grading system is bound to be complicated to understand for anyone but an expert. Today I am at your eye level Everything You Need to Know About Ostem Implant Grades I'll organize it perfectly for you! 🦷 Implant Grades: Why Fixtures (Artificial Tooth Roots) Matter ? 🦷The success or failure of an implant depends on how firmly it attaches to the gum bone (osseointegration). . An implant is not simply a root, but an artificial root that is planted in the bone. How well the surface treatment of the 'fixture' is done is the key. Depending on the surface treatment method, the grade is divided and the quality of bone fusion is determined. 🔹 Key features by grade at a glance SA : This is the most basic stage and is suitable for those with good gum bone condition. CA : The calcium aqueous solution coating increases hydrophilicity and helps in rapid bonding. HA/BA : It is beneficial for those with low bone density or those in need of bone regeneration due to its bone component coating. SOI : Ostem's top line, a premium technology with ultra-high hydrophilicity that promotes blood clotting. 📌 One line of advice from the director: Expensive isn't always the answer! The first step is to accurately assess the condition of your gums and bone. What is the difference between the Osstem grades that are right for me? 🦷There is a separate 'optimal grade' to choose from depending on the condition of your gums and their resilience. What if you have healthy bones? SA vs CA 🔸 If you have healthy bones SA It is sufficient, but if you have diabetes or osteoporosis and are concerned about recovery, it is better to have good blood wettability. CA shows a much more stable prognosis. What if your bones are weak? HA vs BA 🔸 In areas where maxillary sinus augmentation is required or the bone is weak, it is used to induce chemical bonding with the bone. HA or BA The grade has excellent strength to hold the implant tightly so that it does not move around. What if it's a difficult case? SOI 🔸 For elderly patients with very weak bone quality or for difficult surgeries, the initial fixation strength is overwhelming. SOI can be a premium option. What is the most reasonable selection criterion? ? 🦷It's important to find a "gold standard" that balances cost and performance. . My conviction is clear. "The most expensive tier isn't the right answer for everyone." If there are no special circumstances regarding the condition of the bones, CA grade This initial rate of bone fusion is also stable and often the most reasonable option in terms of cost. ⚠️ Caution! No matter how high the grade you choose, it's useless if the medical staff doesn't adjust the implant angle or depth correctly. Be sure to check 'who plants it' as well as the equipment! FAQ Q1. Does the lifespan vary depending on the Osstem grade? ? A1. Grade primarily affects the "rate and stability of initial osseointegration." Once the bone is well integrated, subsequent longevity is largely determined by the individual's level of care and regular checkups. Q2. I have diabetes. What level would be best? ? A2. For diabetic patients with slow recovery, it has higher blood affinity than general SA and attaches quickly to the bones. CA, BA, SOI I recommend the rating. conclusion : More important than grades is 'customized diagnosis' Ultimately, implants are a process that becomes a part of my body. Just as each patient has a different fingerprint, the density of their gum bone and oral structure are also different. Key Summary ✨ If your bones are in good condition CA is the most reasonable! For high-difficulty surgeries or weak bone quality BA/SOI consideration! Above all, the skill of the medical staff is the top priority!

View moreWhat is Melanin? A Comprehensive Guide from the Causes of Pigmentation to Methods for Removing and Alleviating Melanin[5]
Do you feel like your skin looks dull and dark every time you look in the mirror? If you are concerned about melasma, blemishes, or pigmentation, the core of the cause is... melanin no see. Melanin is a pigment that determines skin color; if this pigment is produced excessively or distributed unevenly, the skin darkens and pigmentation occurs. Today, I will thoroughly explain everything from the precise concept of melanin to practical methods for improving it. What is melanin? Melanin is deep within the skin melanocyte It is a dark brown pigment produced in. The principle is that the more melanin there is, the darker the skin color becomes, and the less there is, the lighter it becomes. Even among Koreans, skin tone varies because the amount of melanin pigment differs from person to person. The main role of melanin Protecting skin cells from UV rays Determining skin, hair, and eye color However, melanin is caused by ultraviolet rays, skin irritation, hormonal changes, etc. Overproduction If that happens, the problem starts. Why does melanin pigmentation occur? Melanin pigmentation occurs when melanin accumulates intensively in specific areas of the skin. Major causes of pigmentation cause explanation ☀️ Ultraviolet (UV) Exposure The most common cause. Ultraviolet rays stimulate melanocytes to produce excessive pigment. 🤕 Skin irritation/inflammation Causes acne and post-wound inflammatory hyperpigmentation 🧬 Hormonal changes Melasma may worsen during pregnancy or while taking birth control pills. 🧴 No sunscreen used Accumulation of pigmentation due to neglect of UV protection 💡 Key Points Melanocytes produce more pigment the more they are stimulated. The generated pigment moves to keratinocytes and darkens the skin. 3 Key Principles for Melanin Reduction and Improvement To effectively improve melanin, it is important to understand the following three approaches. Inhibits melanin production itself — Blocks melanocytes from producing pigment Blocking melanin migration — Prevents generated pigment from migrating to keratinocytes Removal of existing pigment — Replaces or directly destroys pigmented keratinocytes All melanin removal and reduction methods introduced below utilize one or more of these three principles. 5 Ways to Remove and Improve Melanin ① Melanin cream (topical product) This is the most basic method recommended by dermatologists. ingredient Operating principle caution Vitamin A (Retinol) Promotes keratinocyte replacement → Removes pigment Do not use in the morning, sun protection is essential. Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) Inhibition of melanin migration Possible irritation around the eyes Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) Inhibition of melanin production Caution for sensitive skin Hydroquinone (Melanone Cream) Inhibition of tyrosinase enzyme → Blocking production Prescription drugs, require a prescription 💡 Cashdoc Tip When searching for 'melanin cream', hydroquinone Melanon Cream This is frequently mentioned. However, since this is a prescription medication, please consult a dermatologist before use. ② Melanin reduction with oral medication The main ingredient is Tranexamic acid As a result, it inhibits pigment production in melanocytes. If the melasma is severe, you can receive a prescription from a hospital. ③ Injection procedure Glutathione injection (whitening injection) : Inhibits melanin production + antioxidant effect. Requires consistent injections to maintain effectiveness. Vitamin C injection : Inhibits melanin production, same principle as topical Vitamin C ④ Peeling procedure It physically and chemically removes dead skin cells to replace the pigmented skin layer with new skin. The effect is enhanced when combined with laser treatment. ⑤ Laser toning (direct removal of melanin) This is the most effective and fastest method for improving melanin. Using a laser to remove melanin pigment lumps inside the skin finely broken down Effective for pigmentation disorders such as melasma, blemishes, and freckles However, it does not end in 1 or 2 sessions and requires multiple treatment sessions. (Must be repeated with low energy to safely remove without damaging surrounding tissue) ⚠️ caution Dull skin may not be due solely to melanin. Since the dilation of capillaries in the skin (flushing) can also be a cause, In conjunction with vascular laser It is more effective if you do it. Daily care methods for preventing melanin No matter how good the treatment is, pigmentation will recur without prevention. ☀️ Sunscreen (SPF 50+) Use daily — Block the biggest cause of melanin production 🧴 Skincare routine containing Niacinamide and Vitamin C 🚫 Minimize skin irritation and friction 💤 Get enough sleep and consume antioxidant foods melanin pigmentation requires accurately identifying the cause Inhibition of production → Blocking of migration → Removal of existing pigment The key is to manage it consistently through a 3-step approach. From topical melanin creams to laser toning, it is important to choose a method that suits your skin condition, and if possible, it is recommended to start after a thorough consultation with a dermatologist. 💬 Curious about the melanin improvement method that suits you?

캐시닥 운영진26.03.20Views 280Likes 3 How long should I take after mole removal? Follow these steps to reduce scarring and pigmentation.[5]
The procedure to remove a mole is a process that is perceived as a ‘wound’ from the skin’s perspective. Depending on how the aftercare is done at this time, the possibility of red marks, gray marks, and fine scars may vary. In particular, how you create the initial regeneration environment can affect the speed of skin recovery and the extent of scarring. Why is aftercare important after mole removal? Because mole removal involves burning or scraping the skin, damage occurs. The skin recognizes this as a wound and begins to regenerate, which may leave various marks. Some of the most common changes that may occur are: red marks dark gray marks Deep-seated scars Following treatment can help reduce the likelihood of these changes or speed up recovery. The Core Principle of Skin Regeneration: How to Manage Your 'Emulsion' The skin begins to regenerate when it has a protective barrier. When skin is damaged, it needs an environment that protects it from external germs, dirt, and irritants. When it is perceived as safely covered, regenerative and growth factors are secreted and recovery progresses. The pus is not just a secretion, it is part of the regeneration process. The pus that comes out of the wound is a mixture of regenerative substances that the skin produces to heal itself. Therefore, excessive wiping of the pus may delay recovery. Creating an environment where the water is naturally maintained is considered an important management factor in terms of regeneration speed. Precautions when using Duoderm (wet dressing) The role of thin duoderm The thin Duoderm acts as a barrier to protect the wound rather than absorbing the pus. The whitening after attachment can be seen as the process of pus filling up. If you suddenly remove it before the pus has fully accumulated, the newly formed skin may fall off along with it, which may delay recovery. Why Thick Absorbent Dressings May Not Be Suitable Thick sponge-like dressings are intended to absorb pus and may not be helpful in situations where a regenerative environment is needed, such as after mole removal. If the adhesive causes skin irritation, a protective film of petroleum jelly or antibiotic ointment may be used. Why can't you force the sticker off? A scab is a protective device created by the skin itself. Once a scab forms, the skin perceives it as a stable environment and continues to regenerate. But if you artificially remove the scab, The wound may reoccur The playback process may be interrupted. This may increase the risk of pigmentation or scarring. The generally recommended care routine is to wait for it to fall off naturally during the cleansing process. Why two-week care is important after Duoderm and scab removal After about 10 to 14 days, your skin may appear to have recovered on the outside. However, the skin at this stage is still close to being immature. The management points at this time are as follows: Regenerating cream and moisturizing maintenance Minimize strong stimulation UV protection management Exposure to UV rays in particular can lead to pigmentation, so blocking care can be an important variable in the early stages of recovery. Things to keep in mind when washing your face and taking care of your daily routine Immediately after Duoderm removal, the skin appears very fragile. During this period Focus on washing your face with water for the first 1-2 days Afterwards, apply foam cleansing step by step depending on skin condition. Excessive friction or irritation can delay healing. Why recovery patterns may vary depending on the depth of the mole The depth of the mole varies from person to person and mole to mole, and if it is removed deeply, the possibility of leaving a scar may be relatively higher. For deep spots, it is sometimes considered to remove them in installments over time rather than all at once. Due to these differences, even if the same point is removed, the recovery speed and traces will vary from case to case. The course of red marks, gray marks, and pitted marks often varies depending on how the skin perceives the wound and the protective environment maintained. 👇 See reviews from actual users Can people with scars after removing moles on their face be covered with makeup?

Pigmentation is not simply a matter of “the pigment remains”. Marks left by the skin as it protects itself after damage no see. So the direction of management is not “get rid of it quickly” Creating an environment in which the skin can recover It's close to . Understanding Why Pigmentation Occurs ✔ Definition of pigmentation Pigmentation is a phenomenon in which melanin pigment is deposited through an inflammatory reaction after skin damage. Medically speaking PIH (Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation) It is called. The process is relatively simple. Skin damage → inflammatory reaction → melanin pigmentation ✔ Why does melanin occur? Melanin is Defense mechanisms to protect the skin no see. If your skin is chapped or Get burned by a burner or something When you have inflammatory acne The body secretes inflammatory substances, and a process occurs in which white blood cells gather and fight. At this time, melanin gathers to protect the exposed skin and leaves a color. In other words, pigmentation is closer to a “mark of defense” from the body’s perspective. How pigmentation fades ✔ Relationship between scabs and pigments When you get a wound, a scab forms. A scab is a structure in which platelets aggregate to protect the wound area. If the inflammation was deep after the scab fell off, pigmentation may remain in that area. However, as the skin regenerates, the body decides that it no longer needs this pigment and gradually expels it. However, if the damage is deep enough to reach the lower dermis, complete recovery may be difficult and some may remain. ✔ Understanding with an ink metaphor Pigmentation is similar to ink in a tank. Continue pouring clean water to drain the ink. This process is Skin turnover (regeneration cycle) no see. So the key is two things. Stopping inflammation Moisturizing to allow regeneration to occur Basic conditions for home care 1) Reduce inflammation first If inflammation persists, even the best ingredients can cause irritation. Lifestyle habits are the foundation. sleep Eating habits Stress management Daily care accounts for most of the improvement in skin. If the inflammation persists, treatment to reduce the inflammation in a hospital may be necessary. 2) Moisturizing is a must Moisturizing is the environment for skin regeneration. It's similar to how if you don't oil a machine, it won't run smoothly. Drink plenty of water Apply a suitable moisturizer regularly As regeneration occurs, the pigment gradually fades. Ingredients that lower melanin activity It is used on the premise that there is no inflammation. ✔ Vitamin C Helps improve skin circulation when taken in doses of 1,000 mg or more Helps reduce melanin activity when applied In an inflamed state, it can be irritating. ✔ Niacinamide (vitamin B3) Reduced melanin activity Promotes whitening with consistent use It is an ingredient that acts so gently that it can be compared to rice water. ✔ Retinol (vitamin A) promote regeneration Role in reducing the long-term attachment of melanin It should also be used when there is no inflammation. Summary of usage routines Assuming there is no inflammation, use as follows: morning Vitamin C Vitamin B3 dinner Vitamin C Vitamin B3 retinol Although there are concerns about reduced vitamin C activity, it is better than not using it at all. The amount is enough to cover the entire face if the pigment is all over the face. If it is local, it is sufficient to apply it lightly to the affected area. Expected range Damage to the upper dermis → 90% or more improvement potential Shallow inflammation such as acne → It takes time, but most cases are relieved Deep wounds → 20-50% may remain This difference varies depending on the depth of damage. Options other than home care ✔ Laser toning Weak penetration into the dermis Helps relieve pain when repeated 5 to 10 times ✔ Hydroquinone 2% cream Reduced melanin activity Use thinly only in the evening May fade after 2 to 5 months ✔ Tranexamic acid series drugs Helps block melanin production Long-term use is not recommended Please check the manual Whether or not it is parallel depends on the situation.

If you choose a pigment disease treatment, just look at the name. Unnecessary repetition of procedures Ina Rather, it may lead to results such as worsening of pigmentation. In particular, IPL, laser toning, and pico toning are all mentioned a lot for the purpose of improving pigmentation. Because their operating principles, energy depths, and adaptive pigments are different. It is important to choose the right product for your skin type. 1. Why Comparing Pigment Treatments Is Important (Why Understand It First) The main reason why skin looks dull is mostly Pigmentation disorders such as freckles, blemishes, and age spots. The problem is that there are many types of procedures. IPL Laser toning Pico Toning The problem is that many people make choices without knowing the exact difference. Even though it is the same “pigmentation treatment,” the principle itself is different. The way the effects manifest themselves also varies. 2. Differences in the operating principles of IPL, laser toning, and pico toning 2-1. IPL: Light-based treatment, not laser IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. Not a laser Treatment using light of various wavelengths no see. Works on pigments spread over a wide range Used for epidermal pigmentation (freckles, etc.) How scabs form and pigments fall off However, when using strong energy Side effects such as increased melanin activity may occur. Especially Asian skin requires more care. For deep pigments like freckles, Rather, there is a possibility of worsening, so a cautious approach is needed. 2-2. Laser toning: Targeting melanin with specific wavelengths Laser toning is Using laser energy of a specific wavelength This is a treatment that targets melanin in the skin. For the purpose of improving deep layer pigmentation (freckles, moles, etc.) Minimize inflammation with low energy How to even out skin tone It is characterized by accessing deeper pigments than IPL. 2-3. Pico Toning: An upgraded laser with a faster irradiation speed Pico toning is laser-based, just like laser toning. Equipment with extremely fast investigation speeds in picoseconds no see. Because of this Reduced impact on surrounding tissues Increased pigment decomposition efficiency Improved pigment removal effect compared to conventional toning Not only intractable and recurrent freckles, It is also used for overall skin concerns such as pores, elasticity, and tattoos. However, rather than an immediate effect, In many cases, 5 to 10 or more repeated treatments are required. It is more expensive than conventional toning. 3. Treatment selection criteria based on energy reach depth The most important criterion in pigment treatment is Energy reach depth no see. Epidermal pigment → IPL Deep pigmentation (freckles, etc.) → Laser toning / pico toning Even if it's the same pigment Because the approach varies depending on the location and depth. It is not appropriate to choose simply by looking at the equipment name. 4. If you had to choose just one, why would you mention pico toning? If you have to choose one of three options: Here's why pico toning is often mentioned: Higher pigment decomposition efficiency compared to conventional laser toning Reduced impact on surrounding tissues due to rapid investigation speed Relatively less pain Can also be used for recurrent and intractable pigmentation However, there is no such thing as a “best treatment.” Results will vary depending on individual symptoms. 5. Why Real Treatment Doesn't Use Just One Device In the realistic skin improvement process, It is rare to use just one piece of equipment. for example pico laser nano laser Ruby Laser Redness improvement laser Depending on the condition, concurrent treatment may also be performed. Because combining multiple pieces of equipment allows for more sophisticated improvements. 6.
