Laser Toning Treatment in Hyderabad
However, it’s not always aging but also the other factors like hormonal changes, exposure to UV rays, pollution and improper care that cause pigmentation issues. Lasers are the ideal way to correct acne scars.
Laser toning treatments can effectively treat stubborn pigmentation issues by giving low energy from the Q Switched laser which leads to decrease in the melanin in the superficial layers of the skin thereby correcting pigment irregularities. Moreover, the laser also helps in stimulating the collagen and elastic whilst rejuvenate the skin texture with little to no down time whether they are at the top of the surface or deep in the dermal layers.
The Procedure
Q switched lasers utilize the Genesis mode (a quasi long pulse mode) to essentially “heat” the skin and stimulating collagen production which helps in collagen remodelling and also the improvement in the appearance of open pores and fine lines. Further the toning mode (a large spot size and low energy) helps in telling the pigment producing cells or the melanocytes to “calm down” via a process of subcellular selective photothermolysis of the pigment producing cell or the melanocyte (essentially decreasing melanosome/ pigment granule production and its transfer to the skin via the pigment producing cell). This also makes the procedure safe as the pigment producing cell is not completely destroyed its just told to “calm down”.
How does Laser Toning work?
Laser toning makes use of a low-fluence multi-pass technique. It is a demanding procedure as it is safe and effective for all skin types. However, the results of laser toning may vary based on the person’s skin condition, age, skin type, and the wavelength of the laser used.
Over the past few years, Q-switched Nd
YAG laser is the most favored laser in the treatment of melasma because of its deep penetrating property, safety in the pigmented skin, and wonderful results.
The Q-switched laser causes sub-cellular selective photothermolysis of excess melanin without causing any harm to the surface skin tissues. It employs the energy of a low fluence laser beam to gradually and effectively treat the skin concerns from deep inside the skin like sun-damaged skin, enlarged or open pores, fine lines, acne scars, and pigmentation.
The procedure makes use of laser light of a specific wavelength which is focused for a few microseconds onto the pigmented skin. It delivers multiple passes of low dose Q-switched laser which penetrate deep into the skin dermis to cause thermal fragmentation of the melanosomes and the rupturing of melanin granules into the cytoplasm. These tiny broken melanin pigments are absorbed by the bloodstream and eventually removed from the body with the help of the immune system.
It also induces the natural healing response of the body to promote new collagen growth, melanin metabolism, and enhances skin hydration. With new collagen and elastin production, the skin texture and tone are considerably improved. At Our Clinic this skin lightening treatment is performed with precision and safety by the best skin experts in Hyderabad after properly analyzing the skin type and concerns to be targeted.
Steps involved in a Laser Toning treatment
The procedure of laser toning is quite simple. It involves the following steps:
Firstly, the area to be treated is cleansed properly to remove any makeup or cosmetics, excess oil, and dirt.
The skin may be numbed by applying a topical anaesthetic cream.
Next, the eyes are covered with gauze, and protective eyeglasses are asked to be worn by the client. This is necessary to protect the eyes against the laser beam if the facial skin is being treated.
Further, the skin expert makes an appropriate setting of the Q-switched laser according to the skin type and condition of the client. The fluence chosen in the starting depends upon the spot size of the laser and the color of pigmentation. The laser fluence would be kept less for darker melasma. With a longer wavelength of laser light and large spot size, the depth of penetration can be increased even with less fluence.
The treatment site chosen first is the largest discolored spot located anywhere on the body. Then, a laser beam with short emissions from a handheld laser device is focused on the affected area of the skin. Between two pulses, there must be an overlap of more than 10-15%.
The endpoint of the treatment involves slight redness of the skin (erythema) that resolves soon. An ice pack or any cooling gel is applied to the treated area to soothe and calm the skin.

The Q-switched laser treatment in Hyderabad at Skinbliss Clinic can effectively manage various skin issues like hyperpigmentation, scarring, melasma, dark spots, sunspots, fine lines, and wrinkles and also enhances the skin tone, and texture.

The number of the treatment sessions needed and the longevity of one sitting depends upon the skin type, size of the treatment area, and the severity of the skin condition. Laser toning provides favorable results and makes the skin look brighter, refreshing, plumper, and even-toned, as it encourages the sub-dermal production of collagen and elastin fibers. The outcome of the procedure can be noticed instantly without any side effects.
If a candidate has highly sensitive skin, some redness, slight warmth may be felt on touching the skin, and appearance of white spots right after the treatment can be expected, but these go away within a few hours after the treatment. Although some patients may experience a mild tingling sensation or like a rubber band snapping against the skin when the laser handpiece hovers over the skin.
The overall procedure is considered to be safe and virtually painless. As laser toning does not cause damage to the skin epidermis, there is no bruising or swelling faced by the clients. If the person develops a dark brown scab on the skin surface, after the procedure, it may take 10 to 14 days to subside while bruising may take more time to resolve. Thus they can resume their daily activities immediately after the treatment.
