About the treatment

The Q-Switch laser emits short pulses of high energy that selectively target melanin in the skin, minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.

It is ideal for stubborn pigmentation and post-inflammatory marks, providing gradual lightening over multiple sessions.

The procedure is quick, with minimal downtime, making it a popular choice for effective pigmentation management.
