The effects of each procedure may vary, so please have a thorough consultation beforehand regarding possible side effects (pigmentation, bruising, swelling, etc.).
Depending on each case, the type of laser, laser intensity, and number of sessions required can vary greatly.
That’s why, without fully understanding the characteristics of each pigmentation, many pigmentation treatments are still being performed indiscriminately under the name of “toning.”
For effective pigmentation treatment, it’s essential to accurately diagnose and identify the type of pigmentation you have.
I also consider and check many factors, such as:
- The patient’s skin type and overall skin health
- Occupation and environmental exposure, and how well they can manage it (sunscreen, hats, etc.)
- Underlying medical conditions (especially in women, history related to uterus or breasts, etc.)
In other words, I end up being quite particular and detailed 😅
“You should do this, you shouldn’t do that.”
Today, I’d like to share a case of a patient who followed my guidance, started pigmentation treatment and care from last spring and summer, and as a result, her melasma and blemishes didn’t worsen over the summer, and her skin actually became brighter and healthier.
Case 1: Female in her late 30s
- Previous pigmentation treatment experience 10 years ago
- Melasma and blemishes worsened after childbirth
Before the procedure vs. After the procedure
She also underwent Oligio, a high-frequency laser treatment for dermal health,
which not only brightened her skin tone but also made her skin appear plump and more elastic.
Case 2: Female in her mid-30s
Now that summer has passed and September has arrived, with autumn on its way,
it’s a good time to think about treating the melasma and blemishes that worsened over the summer.
Of course, if you had prepared in advance, your skin would have endured the summer sun and heat better,
but even starting now, you can care for your skin—soothed, refreshed, and brightened.
Serious pigmentation care begins from here!
Thank you.
