Q-switched alexandrite laser treatment is a specialized laser procedure that targets and removes pigmentation issues such as brown spots and sun spots, as well as other pigmented lesions on the skin. This treatment operates at a 755nm wavelength, which is specifically absorbed by melanin in the skin, making it highly effective for breaking down darker pigmentation and improving skin tone. By targeting only pigmented cells, it leaves surrounding tissue unaffected, resulting in minimal risk to healthy skin. The Alexandrite laser is also beneficial for reducing hyperpigmentation on various areas of the body, offering patients a comprehensive solution to restore evenness and brightness to their complexion. As a noninvasive treatment with little downtime, it appeals to those looking for an effective yet convenient solution for clearer skin. Dr. Alison S. Kang at Prestige Cosmetic Dermatology in Yorba Linda, CA offers this advanced laser therapy, providing customized plans for each patient based on their skin type and concerns.
How is Q-Switched Alexandrite Laser Treatment Performed?
During a treatment session, the Q-switched alexandrite laser is directed at the targeted pigmented areas. The laser energy breaks apart the pigmentation by creating a photomechanical effect on the melanin particles. Over time, the fragmented pigment is naturally cleared away by the body’s lymphatic system, allowing for progressive improvement in skin tone. Treatment sessions are brief, and the experience is generally comfortable, with most patients feeling only a mild warming or tingling sensation. Dr. Kang ensures that the procedure is customized to each patient’s skin condition and sensitivity level, delivering optimal results with minimal discomfort or downtime.

I had a great visit with Dr. Kang at Prestige Cosmetic Dermatology. When I first walked in, it felt like I was at a spa! Sabrina kindly led me to the exam room to meet the doctor. Dr. Kang did a thorough exam, treated my skin issue and explained the procedure and after effects. She took the time to answer questions about my current skin care regimen and what ingredients I should use according to my skin type. I asked for her recommendations on brands and Prestige carries some skin care and sunscreen products available for purchase. I highly recommend Dr. Kang and Prestige Cosmetic Dermatology.
