Why is freckle treatment difficult?

Have you ever tried everything to address your freckles, only to feel like things are improving much more slowly than you expected? You try whitening cosmetics and take oral medication, but when you look in the mirror, you see no significant change, and that's when you feel frustrated. The problem with freckles isn't simply a superficial issue on the skin. A structure in which melanin pigments are repeatedly created in the deep layers of the skin That's why it takes a long time for pigmentation to fade with just oral medication or topical whitening treatments, and many people end up giving up halfway through.

 

Why Laser Treatment is Needed for Freckle Treatment

For this reason, the most basic procedure in treating freckles is Toning laser Yes. Toning works by breaking down the melanin pigment already accumulated in the skin into smaller pieces and helping it be excreted from the body. However, typical nanosecond toning treatments have a relatively gentle effect on pigmentation, so some people find it takes a long time to see results or experience low satisfaction. This can lead to thinking, "I worked so hard, why is it still there?"

 

Removing impurities will change your impression.

Because the depth of freckles, amount of pigmentation, and distribution vary from face to face, we examine these in person. Treatment by adjusting energy levels and irradiation methods differently Even with the same freckles, some people have more pigment in the epidermis, while others have more pigment in the dermis. I think it's difficult to expect satisfactory results without considering these differences.
