SINGAPORE – Individuals who are seeking to resolve their pigmentation issues should undergo a proper medical skin consultation to understand the types of pigmentation problems they are suffering from before jumping into treatments that may not yield satisfactory results. Each type of pigmentation varies in appearance and usually requires a unique treatment.
The most common types of pigmentation include freckles, age spots, post-acne pigmentation, birthmarks, melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Post-acne pigmentation and birthmarks usually present with deep (dermal) pigmentation, freckles and age spots as surface (epidermal) pigmentation, and conditions like melasma have a combination of both. It is essential to assess the condition and assess the laser(s) to use as different lasers target different components of our skin.
Melasma, for example, is very well-known to be a difficult to treat condition. Not only does it have a combination of deep and surface pigmentation, it has a vascular (blood vessel) disease component as well that can be targeted with a vascular wavelength laser. Veritas Clinic has a total of eight unique lasers, with four of them specially used to target the different components of melasma” says Dr. Chua. A wide range of laser ensures optimal solutions for the skin. Veritas Clinic uses the multiple wavelength combinations over traditional single wavelength laser regimes to target both surface and deep pigmentation with the Fotona® PICO-technology Starwalker.
