Distinction 1 A laser that can improve freckles with just one treatment

We accurately target only melanin pigments using wavelengths specialized for freckle lesions.

Immediately after the procedure, the pigmented area may temporarily swell or develop tiny scabs. Through this process, visible changes can be observed with just one treatment, and there is a possibility of skin improvement in a relatively short period.

The scabs that form are very small. Freckles may appear temporarily darker for 2-3 weeks after the procedure, but after this period, you can observe the pigment fading with just one treatment.

When treating freckles, we do not necessarily recommend more than 3 sessions.

Distinction 2 Why we prioritize meticulousness in our consultations and treatments

To enhance the quality of our procedures, we limit the number of patients seen per medical staff member per day.

This is our clinic's operating principle to dedicate sufficient time to each and every patient. The number of appointments we take each day is generally lower than what is commonly known.

In this way, we can provide detailed explanations and create personalized plans at every stage, from consultation to procedure and post-care. This ensures we have ample time to closely observe and respond to each patient's skin condition and reactions.

As a result, we strive to enhance the precision of our procedures and provide delicate medical services that go beyond simple treatment.

We prioritize the quality of results over the time taken for the procedure, focusing on each individual patient's skin throughout the treatment process.

Distinction 3 Personalized Adjustment of Procedure Settings

We precisely examine the patient's skin tone, lesion size, depth, and skin reaction to adjust laser settings such as spot size, pulse energy, and fluence.

For instance, for brighter skin tones and shallow pigmentation, a smaller spot size and higher energy can be used for precise irradiation. Conversely, for skin prone to hyperpigmentation, we adjust the laser output to ensure a safe procedure.

Such precise laser settings can increase the accuracy of treatment results, even when using the same equipment. This is a crucial factor that can positively impact patient satisfaction after the procedure.

It is also a very important consideration.

Distinction 4 Post-Procedure Recovery Management Plan

The 532nm laser tends to show rapid skin reactions, so there is a possibility of scabs or temporary redness after the procedure. Therefore, it is crucial to pay attention to regenerative care and UV protection.

The degree of pain experienced during a 532nm laser procedure can vary among patients. To address this, we determine whether to use anesthetic cream after a pre-consultation. After the procedure, we help soothe the skin with cooling treatments and a Jaungo modeling pack.

We provide Duoderm, which is beneficial for aiding recovery and blocking UV rays.

Distinction 5 Customized Treatment Considering Overall Pigmentation Beyond Freckles

It is common for those seeking freckle removal to also have dermal pigmentation such as melasma.

Of course, removing only freckles is one approach, but most patients desire overall improvement in facial pigmentation.

Therefore, we conduct thorough consultations with patients using diagnostic devices to clearly identify the types of pigmentation visible on the face. Afterward, we carefully determine the treatment direction, whether to focus solely on epidermal pigmentation or aim for overall pigmentation improvement.

Through this process, we aim to help patients achieve a brighter and more even skin tone on their faces.

What causes freckles?

Freckles are typical epidermal pigmented lesions primarily caused by genetic factors and UV exposure.

They typically begin to appear in childhood and are often observed in individuals with fair skin tones.

They primarily appear on areas easily exposed to sunlight, such as the nose and cheekbones, and may show changes in color, darkening or fading with the seasons.

Main Distribution Areas of Freckles

Due to their skin structure and light absorption characteristics, freckles are known to respond well to specific laser wavelengths.

Specifically, the 532nm wavelength is primarily used as an effective wavelength.

Freckles typically form from localized melanin pigment accumulation in the basal layer of the epidermis, making them suitable for the selective action of the 532nm wavelength.

Mechanism of Action of 532nm Wavelength

The 532nm wavelength is a green-spectrum wavelength with high absorption by melanin pigment. This wavelength selectively acts on pigmented lesions primarily located in the epidermal layer of the skin.

The 532nm laser primarily utilizes a Q-switched method, which involves irradiating high energy for a short duration of several nanoseconds, selectively destroying only pigment particles.

Such short-pulsed energy is selectively absorbed by melanin and converted into thermal energy. The resulting photomechanical shock contributes to the effective breakdown of melanin particles.

Some of the broken-down pigment forms tiny scabs and falls off, while the remaining pigment is expelled from the body via lymphatic vessels by macrophages.

As these destroyed pigments are removed from the skin, there is a possibility that freckles will visibly lighten or generally improve.

Our Clinic's Freckle Removal Procedure

If you are considering laser treatment for freckles, the role of specific wavelengths used in the procedure is significantly important.

However, the outcome of the treatment is not solely determined by the wavelength; it can be influenced by various factors.

First, a thorough diagnosis of each individual's skin condition is essential. Based on these diagnostic results, a treatment plan tailored to the individual will be developed.

Through this approach, improved results can be expected, and the treatment will proceed in a direction suitable for each individual.
