Brown & Red Spot Reduction

Reduction of discolored spots on the body can be achieved using various wavelengths of laser light applied in a controlled and measured manner of destruction. More than one treatment is usually required to achieve the desired clearance of unwanted cosmetic discoloration. Intense Pulse Light (IPL) lasers are typically used to perform these types of treatments. However, we also use our PiQo4 laser to remove seborrheic keratosis (dark brown lesions) on the skin.

Optimal results are obtained following a series of three treatments allowing 4 weeks between each procedure.

The PiQo4 is an advanced FDA-cleared laser designed for benign pigmented lesion clearance. The laser combines both picosecond (trillionth of a second) and nanosecond (billionth of a second) pulse durations, allowing breakdown of pigments into extremely small particles that can be easily reabsorbed into the body. The high power of the PiQo4 enable pigment removal from a wide variety of skin tones with fewer treatments.
