Laser treatment for skin discolouration

Na czym polega zabieg?

The treatment is performed using the Discovery Pico picosecond laser, which emits ultra-short pulses of light. Their mechanism of action is based primarily on the photoacoustic effect, which breaks down the pigment into tiny particles.

As a result:

• the pigment is broken down precisely and gradually,
• the skin eliminates the pigment naturally through its regenerative processes,
• the risk of overheating and irritation is reduced compared to older technologies.

This is particularly important in the treatment of melasma, which requires a very cautious approach.

Results: what can be expected?

The laser does not ‘bleach the skin’ – its purpose is to gradually reduce excess pigment and even out the skin tone.

After a series of sessions, it is possible to:

• lighten discolouration,
• improve skin tone evenness,
• reduce the visibility of discolouration,
• smooth and improve skin quality (as an additional benefit).

It is essential to combine laser therapy with appropriate skincare and UV protection.

What makes the treatment at Medistica stand out?

A great laser is one thing. Experience is another.

When treating pigmentation, it is not just the device that matters most, but the ability to select the right settings and carry out the treatment correctly.

At Medistica:

• laser therapy has been in development for over 30 years,
• treatments are carried out by doctors with expertise in advanced laser therapy,
• the clinic runs laser therapy training courses under the supervision of Professor Aleksandra Szlachcic.

This is particularly important in the case of melasma, where an incorrect technique can exacerbate the discolouration rather than reduce it.

Combined therapy
(Medistica’s original approach)

When treating hyperpigmentation or, laser treatment is often one component of a personalised treatment plan.

Depending on the type of hyperpigmentation, the plan may also include:

• beauty treatments, such as chemical peels or Cosmelan therapy,
• aesthetic medicine treatments, such as platelet-rich plasma, mesotherapy or biostimulators.

Such an approach improves the effectiveness of treatment and reduces the risk of relapse.
