What is LASER PIGMENTATION REMOVAL – Large Area?
Laser pigmentation removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses targeted laser energy to break down and reduce pigmentation in the skin. This can include various types of skin discolorations like age spots, sunspots, melasma, and other forms of hyperpigmentation. When the term “large area” is used, it typically refers to the treatment of larger skin areas such as the back, chest, or legs, rather than smaller, more localized spots like those on the face.
How does LASER PIGMENTATION REMOVAL – Large Area works?
The procedure utilizes specific types of lasers that emit wavelengths of light targeted specifically at the pigment (melanin) in the skin. The laser light is absorbed by the pigment particles, which heat up and break down as a result.These are very effective for treating specific spots with high precision. They emit energy in short, intense pulses. These lasers treat microscopic columns of skin, leaving surrounding tissue untouched, which promotes faster healing.Although not a laser, this light therapy treats larger areas of pigmentation with light energy.
What can I expect during the treatment?
During a laser pigmentation removal treatment for large areas, you can expect a series of steps to ensure the procedure is as comfortable and effective as possible.The laser device is adjusted to the specific settings for your skin type and pigmentation issue. The technician will pass the laser handpiece over the targeted area. You may feel a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping against your skin or a warm pinprick as the laser targets the pigment.Throughout the procedure, a cooling mechanism on the laser device or a separate cooling system may be used to keep your skin comfortable and reduce the risk of side effects.
How many sessions will I need?
On average, most people need between 3 to 6 sessions to see significant improvement in pigmentation, but some cases may require more. These sessions are typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart to allow the skin sufficient time to heal and to assess the effectiveness of the treatment on pigmentation.
It’s important to have a consultation with a qualified dermatologist or laser treatment professional who can provide a more accurate estimate based on your specific circumstances and the characteristics of your pigmentation. They will also monitor the progress after each session to adjust the treatment plan as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is laser pigmentation removal?
Laser pigmentation removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses laser technology to target and diminish pigmented lesions on the skin, such as sunspots, age spots, and freckles.
How does laser pigmentation removal work?
The procedure involves using specific wavelengths of laser light that are absorbed by the pigments (melanin) in the skin. The laser energy causes the pigment to break down into smaller particles, which are then naturally removed by the body’s immune system.
Is laser pigmentation removal painful?
Patients often describe the sensation as similar to the snap of a rubber band against the skin. Discomfort is usually minor and can be managed with topical anesthetics or cooling methods during the procedure.
What can I expect after the treatment?
Immediately after treatment, you may experience redness and swelling, similar to sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few hours to days. The treated area may darken before it peels or flakes off over the following weeks.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on the type and depth of pigmentation, as well as your skin type. Typically, 2 to 6 sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart are needed for optimal results.
What are the side effects of laser pigmentation removal?
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and darkening of the treated area. Less common risks include blistering, scarring, or changes in skin texture.
