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.
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.
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.
