Sun & Aging Spot Removal With Candela Laser
Technology
Your
Laser Spot Removal Treatment
Laser Spot Removal gives your doctor precise control as the procedure gently
removes the spots to reveal smooth, fresher-looking skin. The laser's energy is
delivered in pulses via a hand piece held very close to the skin. As the laser
pulses, you may feel a slight sting. If needed, a local anesthesia can be
applied to the treatment area. Spots are removed in a precise, rapid, bloodless
fashion achieving excellent results.
How will
I feel after my laser treatments?
Following laser treatment, there may be a little discoloration. After several
days a crust will form and fall off within 7-14 days. Occasionally some
discoloration may persist for several months.
Do laser treatments for spot removal hurt?
Most patients describe the sensation to feel like the snap of a rubber band on
the skin as the laser pulses are delivered through the hand piece. Some patients
request a topical anesthesia for added comfort. Following treatment, the pain is
minimal to nonexistent.
How many treatments will I need?
Typically only one or two treatments are all that is necessary. Occasionally
darker, larger spots may require additional treatment to obtain optimal results.
How long do treatments take?
Depending on the number, size, and location of the lesions, treatments usually
take only a few minutes.
Will the spots return after treatment?
Not usually. However, new spots may appear over time, but these too can be
removed. Optimal results can be maintained only if you apply sunscreen on the
treated area and avoid future sun exposure.
Are these treatments safe?
Yes. Lasers and advanced light systems have been used safely on millions of
patients of all ages worldwide. These systems treat only the targeted lesions
(spots), leaving the surrounding tissue intact. There are many benefits to laser
surgery including little if any pain, no needles for most patients, less
bruising and swelling and once removed, the lesions rarely return. The risk of
scarring or discoloration is minimal.
