Pigmented lesions including sunspots, age spots, and brown patches, are dark in color because the melanin is concentrated in one area of the skin. Most pigmented lesions come from sun exposure while some patients are born with them. Hormonal changes can also induce pigment changes in the skin. Age spots, freckles, and brown patches can all be removed with PicoSure™.
To improve the look of your skin and achieve a more youthful appearance by removing pigmented lesions will require only a few treatments (up to 6). Darker, deeper and larger pigmented lesions may require additional treatments.
