Treatment Options to
effectively
reduce pigmentation
Too much UV-rays, irritation of the skin or hormonal influences can disrupt this process, which causes the melanin to bulk up in the skin and creates pigmentation. Pigmentation spots that are located in the upper skin layers are usually treated most easily.
Pigmentation can also arise after wounds, acne or around surgical scars. This form of pigmentation is called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. The cause of this hyperpigmentation is due to an inflammation. Age spots, also called lentigo, are usually bigger and have a clear, round shape and mostly arises in middle-aged people.
The cause for pigmentation spots in the skin is mostly due to too much exposure to the sun. This is the reason that you most often see pigmentation spots on the face, on the hands or on the décolleté.
Treatment options
OCP Medical Center features highly effective and safe treatments for pigmentation. For pigmentation, we typically recommend treatment with IPL using the Lumenis M22 System. This system is considered one of the most advanced and effective systems on the market today.
During the consultation
During your initial consultation, everything will be discussed related to the treatment of pigmentation spots: which treatment method is best for you, what results you may expect, possible side effects and after care. You will always receive honest advice and clear information about the treatment and the period afterwards.
Prior to any skin treatment, one of our staff will register all your details and will conduct a skin analysis. It might be necessary to take some pictures of the area that will be treated for your treatment file.
The treatment can be done without anesthesia and takes on average 15 to 30 minutes. For an optimal result, multiple treatments will be required.
OCP Medical Center features the latest Lumenis M22 with a specific IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Module, which is highly effective to treat different types of pigmentation. This IPL can not be compared to an IPL which is used for hair removal used by beauty therapists. Our IPL has significantly more energy and multiple treatment combinations are possible. Within a few treatments, pigmentation is significantly reduced.
Depending on the type of pigmentation and the depth of the pigmentation in the skin, it might be possible to combine the treatment with another type of laser. The Dermatologist will inform you about this during the consultation.
Results
For the best results, we advise at least two to three treatments, with an interval of around two weeks.
The treatment is highly effective, with more than 75% of people getting the expected result (even skin tone). The treatment is not painful and is described by clients as feeling a little ‘zap’.
If you have realistic expectations, you will be very happy with the results of the treatment.
