What are the skin concerns corrected by laser toning?

Laser toning is a safe and effective exemplary solution for people struggling with multiple skin problems and cosmetic issues. It can help subsides surface flaws like freckles, fine lines, pigmentation, macules, eye bags, melasma, blotchy skin, sun damage, or skin imperfections incited by conditions like rosacea, acne, pimples, broken blood vessels, and enlarged pores. It can even help remove tattoos. It has proven to deliver immensely satisfactory outcomes such as clarifying, plumping, smoothing, and skin-replenishing.

How does laser toning work?

Laser toning is a simple procedure that involves the use of a Q-switched laser in two modes. One is the quasi-long pulse mode (or genesis mode) which typically heats the skin dermis, stimulates collagen remodeling, and helps correct fine lines and open pores. The other is the toning mode (large spot size and low energy) that focuses on the selective photothermolysis of the melanocytes (skin-color pigment-producing cells). Following the laser toning procedure, the body’s immune system helps steer clear the discoloration of the skin by processing the excessive pigmentation and the remaining particles.

Before delivering laser energy to the target site, the skin professional applies a lidocaine solution (topical analgesic) to the skin to make the treatment comfortable throughout. The laser device usually has a built-in cooling system that heat protects the skin and safeguards it from any plausible damage as well as control any active acne the patient may have. Each laser toning procedure typically gets over in 10–30 minutes and to achieve desired results, multiple sessions may be required. A full-face laser toning is done in 2 hours while small areas generally take 30–45 minutes. One can know more about Laser Toning in Bangalore by consulting the best skin specialist at Charma Clinic.

Benefits of using Q-switched laser:

• Q-switched lasers are the non-ablative type of laser that does not harm the skin surrounding the targeted area and specifically targets the melanin or brown pigment present in the dark spots. In a single sitting, these lasers can be used to get rid of up to 75–100% of brown or dark spots present deep within the skin and on the surface as well as assist in the complete removal of freckles.
• The procedure is suitable for all skin types (including sensitive skin) and is associated with almost negligible downtime as well as minimal side effects to the skin. There is no use of special chemicals during the treatment.
• The results achieved by laser toning can last for many years if proper care is taken.
• Laser toning can instantly rejuvenate the skin of the face, hands, neck, and décolleté as it softens, plumps, and clarifies the skin. It can also provide long-term benefits in appearance by encouraging sub-dermal collagen production which allows the improvement in skin tone, texture, and color.
• The treatment is pain-free, although some patients may feel a heat sensation as a laser device hovers over the skin.
• Laser toning can be done by various techniques like a nanosecond, picosecond, and Laser Genesis systems which are safe with minimal risk of causing any complications.
• It can boost the self-esteem and confidence of individuals and make them look years younger.

What happens after laser toning?

After laser toning, the treated area may be bandaged. Following the treatment, it is normal for the patient to expect turning of the skin to little red, white, or a bit of grey and have some bruises. The skin may even get shallow blisters that crusts. The skin heals properly in about 7–10 days. Make-up can be applied if wanted by the patient to cover the side effects of the treatment. It is recommended for the patient to not frequently sun expose their skin and stay away from UV light as much as possible. After 24 hours, the treated areas must be cleaned regularly 4–5 times a day and petroleum jelly may be applied to prevent scabs formation.
