Laser Freckle Removal FAQ in Golden, CO

Why laser is not good for dark skin?

For decades, women and men with skin of color have been discouraged from using laser treatments since darker skin tones are more prone to hyperpigmentation and skin damage when exposed to injury or inflammation.

Do freckles naturally go away?

Freckles May Fade Some people have freckles that fade away almost completely in the winter and return in the summer. Other people’s freckles don’t change much with or without the sun and can be seen year-round. Freckles also tend to fade as people get older.

How many laser treatments does it take to remove freckles?

After one to two laser sessions, most patients are able to remove their freckles.

How long does it take for brown spots to fall off after laser?

Laser treatments are effective at removing brown spots due to sun damage. As the laser passes through the skin, brown pigment absorbs the light preferentially. This creates a dark brown scab that falls off over the following 1-week (for faces) and 2-3 weeks (for hands or body), taking the brown spot with it.

What freckles should I worry about?

Types of Moles A mole or freckle should be checked if it has a diameter of more than a pencil eraser or any characteristics of the ABCDEs of melanoma (see below). Dysplastic nevi are moles that are generally larger than average (larger than a pencil eraser) and irregular in shape.

Does pigmentation come back after laser?

Usually, pigmented lesions or spots that have been removed will not return after your laser treatments. However, there are various factors that can stimulate new hyperpigmentation e.g. exposure to UV, ageing, hormonal factors. Laser pigmentation removal treatments do not prevent new hyperpigmentation from occurring.

What are the side effects of laser?

Mild swelling around the hair follicles. Pigment changes may occur, especially in those with darker skin – these changes are usually temporary. Slight redness of the skin. Temporary irritation resulting in blistering, crusting, scarring or other changes in skin texture.

How much do permanent freckles cost?

The average tattooed freckles cost is around $150, but the price can vary from $80 to $350, depending on how many freckles you want and where you book your appointment. Freckles tattoos can last up to 3 years, so it’s definitely worth it if you absolutely love the look.

Can dermatologist remove freckles?

To fade your freckles, your dermatologist may recommend: Laser Therapy: Effective for many pigmentation irregularities, laser therapy can zap away freckles as well. The lasers can fade the extra pigmentation, boost collagen production, and resurface the skin with new cells.

Can laser make dark spots worse?

The hyperpigmentation associated with melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation may be worsened by laser treatment, as the heat and energy can cause the pigment itself to become further entrenched in the skin.
