Q-Switch Lasers are used to treat pigmentation, melasma and sun damage on the face. This versatile laser can also be utilised with different settings for tattoo removal and China Doll Facials.

When the Q-Switch laser is used to treat your pigmented lesions including age spots, freckles, sunspots and some birthmarks, it targets the melanin in the superficial layer of your skin. When the pigmented lesion absorbs the light energy from the Q-Switch Laser it gets converted into heat. This process destroys the target without harming the surrounding skin.

 

How does Q-Switch work?

The Q-Switch Laser emits short pulses of laser energy into the pigmented lesions to progressively shatter the pigment in the treatment area. Q-Switch works differently to other lasers where hyperpigmentation is suppressed and pushed deeper into the skin, where it fades away at the surface level.
