Laser toning – effective, painless treatment for pigmentation/skin lightening

Laser toning is a unique treatment for melasma as it uses the laser energy to reduce visible pigmentation by breaking down melanin molecules naturally, allowing your immune system to remove them. At the same time it has additional benefits in terms of improved skin tone and texture with minimal risk of adverse effects and virtually no downtime. Laser toning is used at True Skin to treat a range of skin pigmentation issues including melasma, PIH, hyper pigmentation, brown spots, and freckles.
In the past, conventional laser toning has been used with reasonable success but only for Fitzpatrick skin types I through to III, unfortunately it was inappropriate for skin type IV or higher (most Asian and darker skin individuals). The new True Skin Lutronic Spectra Laser uses the Q-switch mode with their ultrashort pulse and reliable top-hat beam profile which enables safe and efficacious treatment of dermal and epidermal melasma in patients of all skin types.

How long will treatment take?

Results will come gradually and treatments will be spaced out between 1 to 2 weeks each time for 8 to 10 treatments in total. There is no downtime so you are able to return to your normal activities after applying a quality sunscreen. The skin lightening treatment is relatively painless, and the skin will feel warm to touch immediately post treatment.
