The longer wavelength (1064nm) one is capable of reaching deeper layers of skin tissue whereas the 532nm beam is useful for superficial skin lesions.

Tattoo removal

Numbing cream is applied on the lesion of tattoos 30 mins prior to the procedure. Then laser beam is emitted on the tattoo. This will take 5 to 10 minutes depending on the size and depth of the tattoo. Ice gel packs are used whenever needed in the middle of the session.

sessions vary depending on the depth and size of the tattoo pigment used.

Carbon peel

Non–ablative skin resurfacing by using carbon peel laser treatment. The whole process works to eliminate oil, debris & bacteria in the pore thus helping not only in cleaning up existing acne but also preventing new outbreaks from occurring for weeks or months.

During the procedure, carbon lotion is applied to the skin, which exfoliates and prepares the skin for the next steps. As the lotion dries, it bonds with dirt, oil and other contaminants on your skin surface.

After drying, your doctor uses Q-switched ND: YAG laser to break down the carbon. The laser destroys the carbon particles and any oil, dead skin cells, bacteria or other impurities collagen to the carbon. The heat from the laser stimulates collagen and elastin production and makes your skin look firmer and clear.

Benefits of carbon peel

  • Improves skin texture
  • Reduces open pores
  • Reduces sun tan
  • Makes skin brighten and tighten
  • Reduces acne and pigmentation

Dark lips

Q-SWITCHED ND: YAG laser can be used effectively to treat dark lips which can occur due to various reasons like smoking, genetic, physiological and medical condition or as an allergic reaction to cosmetics.

532 nm Q-SWITCH ND: YAG laser breaks down the melanin deposit in the lip area which is eventually cleared by your body.

Multiple sessions may be needed to bring out the desired outcome and sometimes, we choose to combine the lasers with others treatments like peels and fillers to improve the outcome.
