What are the different types of skin pigmentation?
There are a number of ways in which pigmentation can develop on the skin. They can appear as dark spots, sun spots, age spots, or patches of uneven skin tone.
Most pigmentation issues are generally harmless, but it is always worth getting any type of skin discolouration assessed.
For most clients they want to remove pigmented skin to improve the overall appearance of their skin and their skin condition.
The most common types of skin pigmentation are:
- Melasma – brown spots that occur due to hormonal changes including during pregnancy
- Sun spots – or sun damage which result from exposure to UV rays and not wearing adequate sun protection
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation – which occurs after severe acne or inflammation of the skin after injury or surgery.
At your consultation, we will take the time to assess your dark patches of skin, so we can understand more about the cause of it. This will help us to develop the best approach to treating pigmentation on your skin.
What causes dark spots or dark patches to form?
Skin discolouration or dark spots form when you have an increase of melanin production in your skin.
The most common reasons why you might see a melanin increase include:
- Hormonal imbalances
- Excessive sun exposure
- Skin injury or inflammation
- Natural ageing process
Many clients choose our advanced laser therapy because it targets the excess pigment in the skin without causing any damage to the healthy skin cells that surround it.
The best options for treating pigmentation – laser therapy
The use of topical treatment, sunscreen and intense pulsed light laser can often help with mild symptoms of pigmentation.
However, to treat moderate and severe pigmented lesions, you will need a more advanced treatment – the PicoSure laser system.
At Zapp Laser Studio in Bristol, we offer:
PicoSure Focus
This is an ideal laser pigmentation treatment in Bristol to improve your overall skin tone and skin texture.
The Focus Lens Array uses hundreds of micro-lenses to split up the laser light energy into tiny energy spots.
This makes the skin think there has been a trauma to it, which encourages the natural healing process to begin. As a result, it stimulates elastin and collagen production.
A course of treatment sessions will help fade sun spots or dark spots, and improve the smoothness of your skin. This also makes it a good option for hyperpigmentation treatment.
PicoSure Zoom
The PicoSure Zoom laser pigmentation treatment is a precise way to target a cluster or individual dark spots, acne marks or other types of pigmentation.
The Zoom handpiece sends ultra-short bursts of laser light energy directly into the areas of pigmentation to break them down in tiny pieces. This enables your body to flush them out naturally through the lymphatic system.
It can take as little as one treatment to see great results in the treated area.
Which laser pigmentation treatment in Bristol is right for me?
PicoSure laser treatment works on most skin types, but is most effective on skin types 1-4.
During your consultation, we will assess your skin colour and skin type to determine whether laser therapy is right for you.
If you are not suitable for laser treatment, our skin specialists will recommend another course of treatment, which may include chemical peels and SkinPen microneedling.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of laser sessions you will need will depend on how severe your pigmentation issues are, your skin condition, and how your skin responds to the laser.
With PicoSure Zoom, you can see a more balanced skin tone in one treatment session, but with Focus you may need up to three treatments.
Some types of pigmentation respond faster to laser treatment. However, melasma and deep patches of sun damage may require more sessions.
