Pigmented Lesions

Benefits

Clear your sunspots and freckles with quick, comfortable pulsed light treatments.

PIGMENTED LESIONS INCLUDE:

• Solar Lentigines:
  More commonly known as Sunspots, Age-spots and Liver Spots.
• Actinic Bronzing:
  Overall browning of the skin.

PULSED LIGHT: HOW DOES IT WORK?

Pulses of concentrated light are directed onto the skin and absorbed by the melanin in pigmented lesions. Pulsed light systems are similar to lasers, but with a larger, more diffuse beam for safe, fast, and comfortable treatments.

PULSED LIGHT PIGMENTED LESION TREATMENTS

The Palomar light pulse is directly absorbed by the pigment in the lesion. The light heats the pigment and breaks it up. The lesion darkens and crusts after treatment and is naturally shed from the skin after approximately ten days.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q. Will the Treatments Hurt?
A. Palomar uses a unique long pulsewidth that delivers energy to the skin over a relatively long period of time. This makes the pulses safer and more comfortable. You may experience a feeling similar to that of a rubber band being snapped on the skin, but most people do not report this sensation as painful.

Q. Are There Any Adverse Reactions to Treatment?
A. You may experience temporary redness and a mild “sunburn”- like effect that may last a few hours to a few days.
