| Aesthetic procedures | Hormonal spots or melasma |
With laser or flash lamp treatment it is now possible to treat successfully all the various blemishes of solar, pigmentary, and hormonal origin (melasma or chloasma). Problems due to ageing of the skin can also be treated. Generally one must plan for 2 to 4 sessions as, with each treatment, the spots lighten until they finally completely disappear.
Important:
Before the treatment, the skin must not be exposed to the sun. Do not sunbathe or visit a solarium before the treatment. After the treatment, the blemish will be darker for a week after which the skin will gradually renew itself. Complications such as scars or small infections are rare. To prevent the appearance of new stains, a sunblock is essential.
