Video on removing pigmentation spots with laser therapy
Pigmentation spots can give your skin an uneven appearance. Whether it's age spots, sun damage, or melasma: laser or IPL therapy offers an effective solution.
What is a laser treatment for pigmentation spots?
Laser or IPL therapy effectively reduces pigmentation spots. Targeted light beams break down melanin in the pigmented skin cells. The laser specifically targets dark pigment cells without damaging the surrounding skin. In addition, the treatment stimulates cell renewal, so new, less pigmented skin cells replace the old ones.
Our skin therapists always provide honest advice that suits your wishes and skin.
Why a laser treatment for pigmentation spot removal?
Pigmentation spots can be bothersome for various reasons. Laser therapy offers an effective solution to reduce the visibility of pigmentation spots and create a more even skin tone.
- Even skin tone
- Self-confidence
- Effective results
- Comprehensive approach
During a free consultation, the skin therapist analyzes your pigmentation spots to determine what type of pigmentation you have, which treatment is most suitable, and how many sessions are needed to achieve the desired result.
Before the treatment, the skin therapist will calmly discuss the steps with you. Your skin will be cleansed to remove makeup residue and dirt, allowing us to start cleanly and safely.
During the laser treatment, targeted light beams are delivered to the pigmented skin cells. The melanin absorbs the light and breaks down, making the pigmentation spots less visible. The treatment lasts 30 to 60 minutes.
After the treatment, the skin is cooled. If desired, you can relax for a while in the clinic. The skin therapist will discuss with you what you can and cannot do in the coming days, so you know how best to manage the treated area.
Multiple treatments are often necessary for the desired result. There is sufficient time between treatments for the skin to recover. Our skin therapists monitor the results and adjust the treatment if necessary.

The best treatment for pigmentation spots depends on their cause. The skin therapist can create a suitable treatment plan for this.
Age spots are light to dark brown spots, half to a full centimeter in size, caused by sun damage.
Melasma is hyperpigmentation caused by hormones, such as in pregnancy masks or from contraceptives.
Annoying freckles can be lightened with laser therapy. As with age spots, freckles can darken again when exposed to sunlight.
Pigmentation spots that have arisen from damage or scars can also be treated with laser therapy.
