Laser Pigmentation Removal
Laser Pigmentation Removal involves the laser penetrating deep within the skin, down to the pigmantation and breaking the pigment up into small particles. Once broken down, the immune system recognises the particles as a waste product and flushes them out of the body’s lymphatic drainage system leaving the pigment minimally visible or completely gone.
We usually recommend 1-3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for best results.
A patch test is required a minimum 48hrs before the first appointment.
