Laser Freckle Removal FAQ in Lynbrook, NY

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.

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

After a few hours post treatment the redness will subside. During week one your dark spot will appear as dark brown “speckles,” and then will “flake off” during weeks 1-3. During weeks 1-3 you will notice your dark spot has significantly faded or has completely disappeared.

Can too much laser damage skin?

Lasers can harm the skin via photochemical or thermal burns. Depending on the wavelength, the beam may penetrate both the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the outermost living layer of skin.

What deficiency causes freckles?

The hyperpigmentation related to vitamin B12 deficiency is more common in darker-skinned patients. Few other cases of skin hyperpigmentation due to vitamin B12 deficiency have been reported in the literature. The mechanism of hyperpigmentation is due to increased melanin synthesis rather than a defect in melanin.

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.

Does vitamin C remove freckles?

Does Vitamin C remove freckles? Vitamin C serum can help with freckle removal, but some freckles are more persistent than others. Certainly, however, when applied in serum form Vitamin C does lighten freckles. As well as having a host of other benefits, the serum will suppress melanin cells, and rejuvenate your skin.

What removes freckles permanently?

Can freckles be permanently removed? Laser treatments are designed to permanently remove your freckles. Most people only require one treatment to achieve this, but others may require multiple treatments. However, this procedure does not prevent you from developing more freckles in the future due to sun damaged skin.

How many IPL treatments does it take to get rid of freckles?

You may need three to five IPL treatments before the results are complete. The number of treatments depends on the size of the treatment area, or whether you’re hoping just to fade freckles or want them removed entirely. Multiple treatments are typically spaced out and performed after three to six weeks have passed.

Does laser freckle removal leave scars?

In the hands of a skilled and experienced provider, freckle removal treatments should not result in a scar.

What happens if you laser a freckle?

Many freckles are often removed after just one session, and even persistent freckles can fade into obscurity after repeated sessions. Laser treatment will remove your freckles, but long term, new freckles can appear if you’re not careful in the sun.

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.
