Laser treatments offer many benefits for the skin, one of the best being the effective treatment of hyperpigmentation. Laser hyperpigmentation treatments can address various pigmentation concerns, including sunspots, age spots, and melasma. At 360 Wellness Spa in Grand Rapids, MI, we use the LaseMD Ultra to help resolve these pigmentation issues. At our clinic, we prioritize your skin’s health and aim to provide effective treatments that help you achieve beautiful skin.
LaseMD Ultra is a laser treatment designed for laser skin resurfacing. This hyperpigmentation treatment stimulates the body’s natural healing process to reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone. LaseMD Ultra can rejuvenate the skin, making it look fresher and more even.
Hyperpigmentation laser treatments with LaseMD Ultra involve the use of fractional laser technology to create tiny thermal zones. This stimulates collagen production and promotes skin renewal, both of which address pigmentation issues. As it reaches deep within the skin, the technology of LaseMD Ultra helps to break down excess melanin. This process can reduce dark spots and discoloration while offering overall skin rejuvenation.
LaseMD Ultra is effective as an age spot removal, targeting areas of increased skin pigmentation due to UV damage. The laser breaks down the pigment in age spots to promote a more even skin tone.
As a melasma treatment, LaseMD Ultra offers gentle and effective rejuvenation. It can address hormonal pigmentation issues through skin lightening. It can help lighten dark patches caused by hormonal changes such as pregnancy and provide a smoother and more balanced complexion.
LaseMD Ultra is an excellent hyperpigmentation treatment following skin inflammation. The laser targets the discolored areas, encouraging the skin to heal and regenerate. This process helps to fade dark spots and even out your skin tone.
LaseMD Ultra can also treat various forms of red discoloration with precision. This laser treatment targets the affected areas, reducing redness and promoting a more uniform skin appearance.
Hyperpigmentation occurs when an excess of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, is produced. This overproduction can be triggered by various factors, including prolonged sun exposure, which stimulates melanin as a natural defense mechanism. Hormonal changes, such as those experienced during pregnancy or from using birth control pills, can also lead to hyperpigmentation.
Skin injuries or inflammation, such as those from acne or eczema, can result in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Certain medications and medical conditions may further contribute to the development of dark spots and uneven skin tone.
The number of treatments needed varies depending on the individual and the severity of their pigmentation. Generally, patients may need two to three sessions for optimal dark spot removal. Your provider will create a customized treatment plan based on your specific situation.
You may start to see improvements in your skin’s appearance within a few days of your hyperpigmentation treatment. Full results typically develop over several weeks as your skin continues to heal and regenerate. Consistent treatments can enhance and maintain these results.
Results from LaseMD Ultra can last for several months or longer, depending on your skin type and care routine. Regular laser skin rejuvenation treatments and proper skincare can help maintain the benefits over a longer period. Your provider will recommend a maintenance schedule tailored to your needs.
Preparation for LaseMD Ultra involves avoiding sun exposure and discontinuing certain skincare products before the treatment. Arrive at your appointment with clean skin that doesn’t have any make-up or products on it.
Aftercare for LaseMD Ultra includes keeping the skin hydrated and protected from the sun. Using gentle skincare products and avoiding harsh treatments will support the skin-lightening process. It is best to stay out of the sun, but if you are outside, make sure to wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or more.
LaseMD Ultra can be used to treat skin pigmentation on various parts of the body. It is effective on the face, neck, chest, and hands, among other areas. It can be a valuable option for addressing pigmentation concerns wherever they occur.
