Laser toning is an effective, pain-free solution for dealing with difficult pigmentation issues. Spectra Laser Toning is used to treat patients with severe melasma and hyperpigmentation. Once treated, patients observe a more even skin tone and improved skin texture. If you have areas of hyperpigmentation that you would like to have removed, a Spectra Laser Toning Treatment may be a great option for you.

The Cause of Skin Discoloration

There are many factors that can contribute to areas of skin discoloration. Sun damage, hormones, and age are typically to blame for most hyperpigmentation. Acne scars are another major cause of skin discoloration. Even if you haven’t had acne for many years, the scars left behind may prove difficult to get rid of. Whatever the case, a Spectra Laser Toning treatment can help you erase all of those unwanted imperfections.

Is Spectra Laser Toning Right for You?

We use Spectra Laser Toning treatments to help our patients with a wide range of issues including post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, freckles, and brown spots. While many other laser treatments can be used to treat these conditions, Spectra Laser Toning is unique in that it is open to a wider range of patients. Most laser treatments can only be performed on patients who have a lighter skin tone. Because those treatments target all pigmentation, patients with even a slight tan might experience even more skin discoloration when undergoing those procedures.

Spectra Laser Toning is different. Because the treatment helps excess melanin molecules break down naturally, the rest of your skin pigmentation is not affected. The specific light beam profile utilized for a Spectra Laser Toning treatment allows for the safe treatment of patients of any skin tone or type.

What to Expect from Your Treatment

Unlike many other laser treatments, Spectra Laser Toning is pain-free and requires absolutely no downtime. You will be able to return to your daily activities immediately after your procedure. While you may experience some redness in the treated area shortly after your treatment, it will not last long. In the weeks following your treatment, you will notice your skin’s tone and texture dramatically improving as the targeted pigmentation falls away from your skin.
