Freckles are small spots that occur on the skin of the face in the form of spots, or sesame-shaped brown or light brown spots. The best areas of hair are the cheeks and the bridge of the nose, and it can also spread to the entire face and even the neck. It is one of the most common reasons that affect the beauty of the face. Most of them occur the day after tomorrow, and some patients occur congenitally. However, whether innate or acquired, it is closely related to genetic factors.
In other words, patients suffering from freckles have certain qualities, and people with these qualities will develop freckles under the action of some external factors (such as sun exposure, dry skin, etc.). How to choose a treatment method Conventional treatment methods are difficult to completely remove. If the treatment is too shallow, the lesions cannot be removed. If you want to achieve the ideal depth of treatment, you will leave scars.
External use of drugs is usually ineffective, and generally only serves as a comforting therapeutic effect. Some people mistakenly believe that freckles are caused by endocrine disorders, so they use oral drugs to treat them. Freckles have nothing to do with endocrine, and regulating endocrine will not play any therapeutic role. Treatments such as drug dispensing (drug corrosion), chemical exfoliation (called peels in beauty salons), high-frequency electricity, and ordinary carbon dioxide lasers are more dangerous, very easy to leave scars, and the efficacy is not ideal. Therefore, please do not choose these above treatments.
In contrast, liquid nitrogen cryotherapy is a more satisfactory treatment method. Although the efficacy and safety are not satisfactory, compared with the treatment methods mentioned above, this treatment method can still be selected, especially since the treatment cost of this treatment method is cheap. The ideal treatment method is high-tech Q-switch laser treatment. This treatment method has high efficacy and high treatment safety, but this treatment method is more expensive.
There are currently two more certain treatment methods for freckles: cryotherapy and high-tech Q-switch laser treatment. Therefore, it is recommended that if you are financially difficult, you can receive cryotherapy. If the economic situation is better, you can choose a high-tech Q-switch laser as the first method to eliminate your facial freckles.
Of course, photon rejuvenation is also a very ideal treatment method. Her biggest advantage is that it can not only treat freckles but also smooth and whiten the skin. After treatment, it generally does not affect commuting to and from work. Usually, after treatment in the morning, you can go to and from work normally in the afternoon.
How does the high-tech Q-switch laser treat freckles?
Since freckles are located in the epidermis, conventional treatment methods can only remove the epidermis first, and then the freckles hidden in the skin can be eliminated. This means that if you want to remove freckles, you will inevitably hurt the normal epidermis, so it is very easy to leave scars after treatment.
The high-tech solid-state Q-switched laser is controlled by a computer for treatment. The laser emitted can penetrate the skin on the lesion extremely smoothly (just like light penetrates glass), enter the lesion site, and treat the pigment on the lesion site. During treatment, the pigment of the freckles is completely shattered and disintegrated under powerful laser irradiation, and then it dissipates on its own, thereby being cured.
Since this laser does not forcibly remove the pigment but treats it through the skin, no scars will be left after treatment. Since it takes a certain amount of time (usually 1-2 weeks) for the pigment particles that collapse after treatment to dissipate on their own, you have to wait patiently for a few days and stay for the pigment to disperse.
How does photon rejuvenation treat freckles?
Photon rejuvenation is pulsed strong light therapy. This treatment is very similar to the treatment mechanism of a Q-switched laser. After the strong light enters the skin, the pigment particles are irradiated, and the pigment particles and cells disappear under the irradiation of powerful light. Although her effect is inferior to that of the Q-switch laser, because she still has a lot of cosmetic effects on the skin, its comprehensive effect is very satisfactory.
Will freckles relapse after being cured?
I'm afraid your biggest concern is the problem of recurrence. Freckle is a disease closely related to genetics, so in theory, there is a possibility of recurrence after treatment. All current treatments have the problem of recurrence, but for most patients whose freckles are stable, the chance of recurrence is not great.
In addition, the use of high-tech Q-switch laser treatment has high energy, good treatment selectivity, and very thorough treatment. Therefore, compared with other treatment methods, the recurrence rate is very low, and the freckles during recurrence are not very obvious. Even if the recurrence can be re-treated, repeated treatment will not leave scars.
Are there any side effects of high-tech Q-switch laser treatment for freckles?
Most traditional treatment methods (such as freezing, drug dispensing, "peels", ordinary lasers, etc.) do have many side effects, such as scars and pigment reactions. Sometimes these reactions are quite serious. Because of this, the medical profession has not stopped looking for more satisfactory treatment. Efforts. The invention and birth of the high-tech Q-switch laser are the results of this unremitting effort, and she has entered a brand new era in the treatment of freckles.
This kind of laser treatment is very selective, which means that this kind of laser only treats freckles, and there is no or only very small damage to normal skin, so it generally does not leave scars after treatment, and of course, there are generally no side effects. However, it should be known that whether the treatment effect is ideal depends on three aspects: the treating physician, the equipment used, and the patient's response to laser treatment.
In other words, even if the same physician uses the same equipment to treat different patients, the efficacy obtained is sometimes not necessarily the same. The vast majority of patients will get very satisfactory efficacy. A few patients may have pigmentation spots after treatment (medically called pigmentation spots after inflammation), it doesn't matter, it usually subsides on its own (if you use anti-spot cream with a physician, it will subside faster).
Due to the particularity of their skin type, individual patients have a heavier pigment response after treatment, and may not be suitable for treatment (of course, they are not suitable for other treatment methods). Therefore, it is recommended that you carefully choose the treatment unit when receiving treatment to ensure the best effect.
Are there any side effects of photon rejuvenation to treat freckles?
Under normal circumstances, if the treating physician has sufficient experience, photon rejuvenation is very safe and there will be no side effects. If there are any side effects, a few patients may have very mild pigmentation after treatment. This reaction is generally very mild, does not affect daily life, and can subside on its own.
However, photon rejuvenation is the treatment of large spots and large areas, and there is not only one wavelength of light, that is to say, in addition to the wavelength of light for the treatment of freckles, but there also are other wavelengths of light acting on the skin, so the comprehensive assessment of the patient's skin and the doctor's clinical experience requirements are very high! Otherwise, more serious side effects will occur.
