Some of you may be wondering, “What kind of care should I continue after my Therapeutic treatment is over?” or “Can I get laser treatment for dark spots?” Depending on the condition of your dark spots, combining laser treatment with Therapeutic may offer a more comprehensive approach to treating a wider range of dark spots. In this article, we’ll introduce the characteristics of each treatment and the benefits of combining them.
Treat Your Dark Spot Concerns with a Combination of Laser Treatment and Therapeutic Care
For dark spot treatment, we recommend a combination treatment of a dark spot removal laser and therapeutic treatments. The dark spot removal laser treatment is performed using a device called a Q-switched ruby laser.We aim to precisely remove age spots using a laser with a wavelength that is highly absorbed by melanin.. Laser treatments for dark spots are,You can generally expect results after just one sessionIt is possible, but depending on the condition of the dark spots, you may need to come in several times.
"Therapeutic" means,A short-term, intensive skincare program using cosmetics and prescription medicationsThis treatment is conducted over a period of 12 to 18 weeks under a doctor’s supervision. It suppresses melanin production and promotes its elimination.
Benefit #1 | Treating Dark Spots That Couldn’t Be Removed by Laser with Therapeutic Treatments
The first benefit of combining these treatments is that they can address dark spots that laser treatment couldn’t completely remove. There are three skin concerns that are difficult to treat with laser alone.
- Fine spots and faint spots
- Fuzzy spots
- Uneven skin tone
With lasers that target specific spots, some issues—such as hidden dark spots—can be difficult to treat. Since Therapeutic is a skincare program designed for the entire face,It can also treat dark spots that couldn't be completely removed with a laser treatment.It is.
Benefit #2 | Reduces the Risk of Hyperpigmentation
The second benefit is that it can reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation occurs when laser stimulation activates melanocytes, causing melanin to accumulate and appear as dark spots. This happens because the temporary inflammation caused by the laser triggers the production of melanin—the substance that causes dark spots—leading to its accumulation in the skin. At Therapeutic,Expected to block the production of melanin and support its eliminationYes, you can. As a result,It can help reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentationI am sure you will.
