FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

The choice of treatment for dark spots depends on the type of spot, your skin condition, and your desired results. At YAYOI CLINIC, we use VISIA skin analysis to identify existing dark spots and hidden pigmentation, and we’ll ask whether you’d like to remove prominent spots or even out the overall skin tone. Based on this, we’ll recommend the most suitable treatment, such as laser therapy or IPL (intense pulsed light) therapy.

There are three main types of medical lasers used for removing skin spots: the Q-switched ruby laser, the Q-switched YAG laser, and the picosecond laser. The wavelength, treatment duration, and types of skin spots they are effective against vary depending on the type of laser. At YAYOI CLINIC, we offer the Q-switched ruby laser and the Q-switched YAG laser using the TriBeam Premium system.
