Human skin is prone to spotting, pigmentation, discolouration and damage of all kinds. As a person’s age increases, a lot of these skin problems start to arise. Further, with the new-age lifestyles, the skin does not get proper vitamins and nutrients to maintain its glow. Add to it the increasing pollution, which directly affects skin and hair quality, among other things. If you have also started noticing pigmentation and other signs of ageing and skin damage, laser toning is for you.
Pigmentation and dark spots are caused due to excess melanin formation at some parts of the skin. These spots are present at a deeper layer of the skin, and not the top thinner layer. In a laser toning procedure, the cosmetician uses a device to target the spotted areas with low energy laser beams. The energy from these laser beams helps break pigmentation down and reduce the amount of melanin. Like other laser procedures, in this procedure as well, heat is used to target the affected area, without affecting or harming the outer layer of the skin.
After the melanin particles broken through lasers, they move into the bloodstream, which becomes their outlet to get removed from the body. Laser toning not only reduces dark spots, pigmentation and acne scars, it also helps enhance melanin metabolism. This essentially means that a good laser toning will help you get rid of the scars and spots, and also prevent newer ones from emerging.
