The Astanza Experience
Supporting You Every Step of the Way
Astanza’s Q-switched lasers are highly effective for treating pigmentation and removing pigmented lesions. This fast, easy, and profitable procedure can treat a variety of common skin blemishes across the body, including sensitive areas such as the face or neck.
Pigmented lesions are darker areas of the skin caused by excess melanin in skin cells. Some pigmented lesions are present at birth, such as birthmarks, and some are acquired over time, such as sunspots on sun-exposed areas.
Key examples of pigmented lesions include freckles, moles, age spots, cafe-au-lait spots, sunspots, Nevus of Ota, Nevus of Ito, Mongolian spots, etc.
Most pigmented lesions are benign, but some are melanomas. Because pigmented lesion laser treatment is only for cosmetic purposes, we recommend that all pigmented lesions be cleared by a medical professional (preferably a dermatologist) for treatment.
During treatment, Q-switched laser pulses are applied directly to the complete area of the lesion. The skin cells containing excess melanin absorb the intense laser energy, heat up, and degenerate. Meanwhile, the surrounding skin tissue is unharmed. As the area heals after treatment, the immune system flushes away the dead skin cells and reveals lighter, unblemished skin.
Procedure time depends on the size of the lesion treated. An age spot can take a single second to treat, while a large birthmark or nevus can take up to a few minutes. Patients may experience slight discomfort during the procedure, but the side effects are minimal.
Most pigmented lesions can achieve complete removal after an adequate number of Q-Switched laser treatments. With Astanza’s line of medical-grade laser technology, some small lesions (such as freckles or age spots) may take a single treatment to remove―others can take six or more treatments, depending on a variety of factors.
