Is laser treatment for melasma effective?

Melasma is also a type of spot. It is a yellow-brown pigmentation on the face and also a skin disease. Many people use laser treatment for the problem of melasma. Laser treatment is also a common method to solve melasma, but this method requires multiple treatments.

1. Principles of laser treatment for melasma

Using high-intensity light beams with specific wavelengths that are absorbed by pigments or tissues in the skin, the laser breaks up the pigment substances deposited in the skin and decomposes them within nanometers, promotes circulation in the base skin, and reduces the thermal damage of the treatment to the surrounding skin. As the pigment particles are gradually absorbed by the body, the color becomes lighter and finally disappears completely after several treatments. The treatment process is safe, less painful, leaves no scars and has a skin-rejuvenating effect. It is currently the most ideal method for treating melasma. Laser treatment of melasma generally requires multiple treatments, with an interval of about 3 months between each treatment, and the patient can return to normal work 2 to 3 days after each treatment. The reason for a long treatment interval is to allow the crushed pigment to be fully absorbed before continuing to crush the remaining pigment.

2. Treatment process

Laser freckle removal is the best way to treat melasma. The C6 laser is used to remove chloasma. Its treatment principle is: using advanced laser Q-switch technology and laser frequency doubling conversion technology, the laser energy is released in a very short time, forming a giant pulse with a very high energy density, which instantly "explodes" the pigmented tissue into fragments, which are absorbed by the human body's phagocytes to achieve the treatment purpose. Laser treatment for melasma has the advantages of being highly effective, painless, fast, and non-rebound. In addition, you can take the Guyan set orally to improve chloasma and completely improve your skin.

3. Methods

The laser freckle removal method is for general pigmented spots, and pigmented laser can be used for treatment. During treatment, the doctor applies a light beam to the skin spots, which feels like snapping a rubber band and is not very painful. Since everyone's skin type is different, the reaction and adaptability to laser are also different. Therefore, it is a good idea to conduct a local trial first to see how the skin reacts. This will also allow the patient to understand the post-operative recovery process. If the effect is good, then a comprehensive treatment can be performed on the remaining spots. As for the course of laser treatment, superficial pigmented spots such as freckles and blue-black tattoos usually only require 1 to 3 treatments to achieve satisfactory results, while nevus of Ota generally requires about 5 treatments (each treatment should be separated by more than 3 months).
