Types of Laser Skin Treatments
- Non-Burning Lasers: This category includes IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and Picosure. IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a non-invasive light therapy that uses a broad spectrum of light wavelengths to target various skin concerns. While it is commonly referred to as a laser treatment, it does not use coherent light like traditional lasers. Instead, IPL emits multiple wavelengths, which can be adjusted for different skin types and treatment goals.
- Burning Lasers: These consist of Fractional Laser and full-burning lasers. Fractional lasers treat portions of the skin, while full-burning lasers remove entire layers. Both are designed to effectively address concerns like acne scarring and pigmentation.
For a thorough understanding of these laser treatments, individuals are encouraged to visit Absolute Cosmetic Perth for a consultation or contact (08) 9389 9099
Fractional Pixel Laser
The Fractional Pixel Laser employs a laser beam divided into dots, creating micro-injuries in the skin that promote healing and collagen production. This treatment can be effective for:
- Sun damage
- Fine lines
- Acne scars
- Surgical scars
- Pigmentation
- Stretch marks
- Loose skin
Typically, four sessions are recommended, with improvements often noted after two. Treatments can be scheduled every two weeks based on skin healing.
Picosure Laser
Picosure Laser is recognised for tattoo and pigmentation removal. Absolute Cosmetic is the first clinic in Western Australia to offer this technology, capable of addressing various tattoo types and skin pigmentation issues.
IPL for Skin Rejuvenation
IPL is effective for skin rejuvenation and is a non-invasive treatment targeting signs of photo-ageing. It addresses pigmentation, freckles, sun spots, and spider veins.
Benefits of IPL include:
- Treating sun damage
- Reducing broken capillaries
- Managing rosacea
- Addressing active acne
