About Laser Dermatology
Lasers use focused light to treat specific skin targets, such as pigment, hair follicles or blood vessels. Different devices suit different problems, and settings must be matched to skin colour to avoid burns and uneven pigment.
Most laser treatments need a series of sessions, with sun protection before and after. An experienced dermatologist will assess suitability, explain downtime and results, and treat complications if they arise.
