Laser Toning
How Does Laser Toning Work?
The laser breaks down excess melanin in the skin, gradually fading pigmentation and evening out skin tone. It is commonly used for:
-
Hyperpigmentation & Melasma: Reduces dark spots and discoloration.
-
Skin Brightening: Enhances overall radiance.
-
Fine Lines & Pores: Improves texture and smoothness.
⚠ Considerations for Darker Skin Tones
Darker skin tones have a higher risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) after laser treatments. Proper aftercare and sun protection are essential to minimize this risk.
Procedure Duration
Sessions last 15-45 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Post-Care Instructions
-
Use broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to prevent pigmentation from worsening.
-
Keep skin moisturized and avoid harsh skincare products.
-
Avoid direct sun exposure, saunas, and heat treatments for 48 hours.
-
No exfoliation or retinoids for 5-7 days.
Results and Recovery
-
Gradual improvement over multiple sessions.
-
Pigmentation takes time to fade, requiring at least 10 sessions spaced 1-2 weeks apart.
-
Minimal downtime, but mild redness may occur post-treatment.
