Scar Removal From Pigmented Birthmarks at AKJ Skin and Laser Centre

Dermatologists perform a wide range of procedures utilising lasers. Q‑Switched Nd YAG is the preferred laser for treating pigmented birthmarks, and AKJ Skin and Laser Centre is home to the most cutting-edge Q‑Switched Nd YAG laser available today, the revLite.

Q switch Nd YAG lasers work by breaking up the unwanted melanin pigment inside the skin's cells and melanocytes into tiny fragments, which are then carried away by the body's lymphatic system. The Q‑switched Nd: YAG laser is a safe and effective medical tool.

Know More

The Q-Switched Nd YAG laser can effectively treat damaged skin cells by zeroing in on a specific pigment in the skin. Q-Switched Nd YAG lasers use two energy frequencies, 1064 and 532 nanometers, to treat hyperpigmentation and deeper skin layers, respectively.

Before using a laser to treat your skin, dermatologists will conduct a thorough examination to determine whether or not this method can effectively address your concerns. During the first phase of the procedure, your doctor will apply a topical numbing cream or a local anaesthetic to the treatment area to minimise any discomfort. You'll also be given goggles to shield your eyes.

To break down the pigment, the provider will move the laser across the treatment area and fire off intense bursts of energy. As the laser causes microscopic damage to the skin, you may feel discomfort. However, most patients do exceptionally well during this procedure, and our doctors and nurses work hard to ensure their comfort.

The steps to take before and after removing a pigmented birthmark

At the consultation, your doctor will go over your condition's specifics, the available treatment options, and the pre-and post-care required for each.

Pre Care
Post Care
Remove all makeup and wash your face thoroughly before the procedure.
The doctor will first observe how your skin reacts to "test spots" before beginning the process correctly.
Our doctors can then set parameters for the treatment with the patient's skin type, pain threshold, the likelihood of allergic reaction, and the treatment's efficacy all in mind.
A cooling pad or cold air will be used before, during, and after the procedure to minimise pain and the appearance of redness and swelling.
They focus on achieving the desired outcomes with minimal unintended consequences.
The best way to keep your skin supple and hydrated is to apply moisturiser twice a day.
Similarly, make sure you're getting plenty of water in your diet. Healing is aided by it.
Don't rub the treated area, touch it excessively, or squeeze it in tight clothing.
Stay away from saunas, hot tubs, cigarettes, and alcohol.
After using retinoids for three days, you should wait seven days before using any cosmetics that contain alcohol.

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do birthmarks come from?
Most birthmarks result from an abnormal proliferation of a skin structure. When the skin's melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) increase too rapidly, a dark spot or patch may form on the skin (colour). Birthmarks caused by abnormal blood vessel development are called vascular birthmarks.
Brown birthmarks: what do they mean?
A genetic predisposition to developing birthmarks does exist. While some identifying marks may be similar to those found on other members of the same family, this is not typically the case. Abnormal growth of blood vessels causes red birthmarks. Birthmarks of a blue or brown hue are brought on by a surplus of pigment cells (melanocytes).
Can birthmarks that contain pigment be treated?
Yes. Laser treatments are effective for the removal of most birthmarks. A few sessions may be necessary. Pigmented birthmarks, which our doctors can remove with a laser, are caused by an overproduction of melanin in the cells.
How long would it take to get rid of a birthmark?
A birthmark's treatment time can range from a few minutes to a few hours, depending on the size and pigmentation of the mark. A regimen of outpatient visits may be necessary to bring about the desired improvement. In most cases, an anaesthetic is unnecessary for birthmark removal with a laser.
Do Q-Switched ND YAG Lasers pose any health risks?
When performed by trained professionals, Q-Switched Nd YAG laser surgery is risk-free. To ensure the safety and efficacy of our patients, we invest heavily in providing in-depth training with laser devices to each of our laser skin treatment specialists.
For how long do pigment birthmark removal treatment result last?
Q-Switched Nd YAG laser treatments will need to be repeated to achieve the best possible results for the patient. The size of the treatment area and the nature of the problem will determine the required number of sessions.
