Understanding Acne and Hyperpigmentation

People of all races and ages can get acne. Around 80% of the people around get pimples and acne at least once, between the ages of 11 and 30. Every time they appear, they leave behind marks that usually take a long time to fade away.

Hyperpigmentation is a condition where melanin gathers in some regions of your skin causing that area to become dark. There are several reasons why hyperpigmentation occurs, and the most common one is the exposure to sunlight. Some skin types cannot withstand the sun’s rays, causing the skin to swell and cause hyperpigmentation.

Why Q-Switch Laser?

This treatment concentrates on removing the marks caused by acne and hyperpigmentation on your skin. The Q-Switch laser creates a ray of light invisible to the naked eye which is designed to target dark spots and marks on your skin. The dark spots are created as melanin gets concentrated in those areas. The melanin pigment is then released into the skin with the heat of the laser, which is reabsorbed and disposed of the body naturally. You can also use this treatment to remove tattoos. The treatment works only on the affected area while the surrounding skin is not affected.

The Treatment Procedure

Laser is released in pulses, which is one billionth of a second and the dark spots in the concerned area is removed instantaneously. This enables the process to be quick, where a single session lasts up to 15 minutes. The laser beams feel like hot spots on your skin during the treatment, the effect of which is reduced with a stream of cold air in the concerned area of your skin.
