Is laser freckle removal safe? Beware of four side effects

Many girls want fair and smooth skin, but they can’t get rid of the spots on their faces no matter what methods they try. In fact, it is very difficult to remove freckles. It is difficult to remove freckles with the effectiveness of current skin care products, so the best way to remove freckles is to use medical beauty, that is, laser freckle removal. Laser freckle removal technology is currently stable, fast and painless, and is a relatively safe cosmetic freckle removal technology.

1. What is laser freckle removal?

The treatment time for laser pigmentation removal is relatively short. After each treatment, the skin needs to undergo a metabolic process. For this reason, the interval between laser pigmentation removal treatments is mostly 3 months. Depending on the size, number and depth of the pigment and vascular lesions, some treatments may achieve the desired effect in one or two times, but generally four to six treatments are required to completely solve the problem.

2. Principle of laser freckle removal

The principle of laser freckle removal is that the laser emitted by the treatment instrument can penetrate the damaged skin very smoothly, enter the damaged area, and treat the pigment in the damaged area. The pigment of freckles will change under the powerful laser irradiation and then dissipate on its own, thus being cured. Laser treatment does not forcibly remove pigments, but rather treats through the skin. However, if you are not careful after the treatment, it will leave scars. Moreover, due to its selectivity, it only acts on pigment particles and does not damage normal skin.

3. Four side effects of laser freckle removal

1. Increase the concentration of melanin

Although laser freckle removal can quickly remove freckles, the destructive treatment results may also cause large-scale damage to epidermal cells, impair the skin's repair function, and aggravate the condition.

2. Dry and cracked skin

Laser freckle removal treats the surface of the skin and requires peeling off the stratum corneum, which can easily lead to symptoms such as vasoconstriction, water loss, slow blood flow, or bruising in a cold environment. Lack of skin care causes the skin to become tight, wrinkled, or even dry, cracked, infected, and ulcerated, which accelerates the aging process of the skin.

3. Thinning of the skin and appearance of red blood streaks

Laser freckle removal first peels off the epidermal cells of the skin, which can easily cause the skin to become thinner and the capillaries to protrude. When exposed to heat, exercising, or being emotionally excited, blood vessels dilate, blood flow accelerates, and the face turns red, which is called erythema.

4. Skin becomes sensitive

As epidermal cells are damaged, the skin becomes thinner, more fragile and more sensitive. Skin rashes, itching and scaling are prone to occur. Bacterial infections can easily lead to ulceration and even skin cancer.
