The idea behind laser toning is subcellular selective photo-thermolysis. In this case, the laser emits a particular wavelength of light that is effectively absorbed by the target chromophore. As a result, there is a decrease in the number of epidermal melanocytes, with just the melanosomes being killed and the melanocytes remaining intact.
With traditional techniques, pigment-containing cells are destroyed, which causes inflammation to occur and cause re-pigmentation or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). The little amount of heat produced by a laser lowers the likelihood of recurrence. At Agelock, we provide picosecond laser toning technology, much more advanced than other available technology.
Patients may have a sensation of heat when the laser handpiece hovers over the skin after the operation, but it is a safe, effective, and painless treatment. Since laser toning is a non-ablative procedure, the skin is not harmed. Because there is no bruising or swelling, patients can resume their normal activities right afterward. Toning normally takes 4-6 sessions and can be used on many body regions in addition to the face. One searches for a brightness impact on the skin because the facial hair also experiences a bleaching effect and falls off further.
The following skin issues are helped by laser toning:
Melasma: Hormonal imbalance is a common cause of this coloring. Laser toning makes it easier to get rid of these persistent marks swiftly and successfully.
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH): An epidermal pigmentation disease that develops after a burn or other injury. Laser toning helps to minimize them.
Dark Spots: Laser Toning improves skin tone by selectively targeting the pigmentation.
Freckles: Laser toning has demonstrated good effectiveness in reducing the appearance of freckles, which are a genetic condition.
Dark circles: For those who have dark circles and are unable to adequately manage them with other treatments, laser toning is quite helpful.
