Laser for Pigmentation

Pigmentation concerns can affect all skin types and often leave skin looking patchy, uneven or aged. At KGA, we treat unwanted pigment using the Enlighten laser by Cutera. This state-of-the-art laser combines dual wavelengths with picosecond and nanosecond technology to break down pigment at its source, without damaging surrounding skin.

Whether you're experiencing sun spots, freckles, melasma or post-inflammatory pigmentation, this treatment offers a safe and effective solution. The Enlighten laser breaks up pigment particles which are then naturally cleared by the body, revealing clearer, brighter skin with each session.

Pre & Post Treatment Care

Before treatment, avoid sun exposure, solariums and self-tanning products for two weeks. Stop using active skincare ingredients including retinol, AHAs, BHAs and vitamin C for 3 to 5 days. Please arrive with clean, product-free skin on the day of your appointment.

After treatment, you may notice that pigment temporarily darkens before fading or flaking away. Mild redness or sensitivity is normal and usually resolves within a few days. Avoid sun exposure, heat, exfoliants and active products for up to five days post-treatment. Keep your skin hydrated and wear broad-spectrum SPF daily to protect and prolong your results.
