| Pigmented Lesions Removal |
Sun spots, age spots and pigmented lesions are caused by the release of melanin, a key component of our bodies defense against sun exposure. Lesions can be found on the face, neck, hands, upper legs – areas most commonly exposed to sunlight. Most spots may be treated for cosmetic reasons, however, unusual-looking lesions may need to be surgically removed by a dermatologist. Benefits The Cynosure laser is FDA approved and can be adjusted to specific parameters to lighten pigmented lesions. Some benefits include: • A healthier overall appearance of skin tone • Minimal downtime • Safe and effective • Quick and tolerable Areas to be treated Lesions most commonly appear on the face, neck, chest or upper legs. These are areas usually exposed to sunlight. Both men and women who have lighter skin tones tend to have more visible lesions. Suspicious spots will need to be checked by a dermatologist before any cosmetic laser procedure. Up Close Frequently Asked Questions What does it feel like? Although many patients report little or no discomfort, some may experience a mild stinging sensation only when the laser pulse is delivered. The cold tip on the hand piece helps soothe the skin as the laser is delivered. How long will the treatment take? Treatment time should be 15 to 30 minutes but may vary depending on the number and size of the area to be treated. How does it work? Laser treatments can safely and effectively reduce the appearance of lesions on any area of the body. A highly focused beam of laser light is attracted to the dark pigment of the lesion and within 4-6 weeks, the spots treated will slough off. How many treatments does it take? The skin under the surface will be lighter after just one treatment; however additional treatments may be necessary to achieve the maximum results. It is imperative to use sunscreen on areas treated because any sun exposure can cause the lesions to reappear. |
