Pigmentation, Vascular Lesions & Freckles Duncan
How does the Cynosure Elite IQ laser help to treat pigmentation and vascular lesions?
Sunspots & pigmentation: Sunspots, also known as age spots or solar lentigines, are dark patches on the skin caused by prolonged sun exposure. Pigmentation refers to any uneven skin coloration such as malasma or hyperpigmentation. The Alexandrite laser within the Cynosure Elite IQ emits specific wavelength of light that targets melanin, the pigment responsible for these dark spots. The laser energy is absorbed by the melanin, causing it to break down and gradually fade overtime. This treatment is highly effective in lightening and reducing the appearance of sunspots and pigmentation, leaving clear more even-toned skin.
Vascular Lesions: Vascular lesions include conditions like spider veins, broken capillaries, and rosacea. These lesions are caused by abnormal blood vessels that are visible through the skin. The Nd:YAG laser portion of the Cynosure Elite IQ targets the hemoglobin in these blood vessels. When the laser energy is absorbed by the blood vessels, it heats up and causes the vessels to coagulate and collapse. The body’s natural healing process then removes these damaged vessels, resulting in a significant reduction in the appearance of vascular lesions.
Freckles: Freckles are small, tan or light brown spots that occur due to an increased production of melanin to certain areas of the skin. The Alexandrite laser component of the Cynosure Elite IQ helps to target and break down this melanin, gradually lightening and fading freckles over time. These are treated similar to pigmentation.
