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.
Prestige Cosmetic Dermatology Reviews
I love love love this clinic and Dr. Kang. She has tremendously helped me feel more confident in my skin. At every visit, I can tell she truly cares for her patients just by the way she listens and caters to our needs. Honestly the best dermatologist I've visited (and I've been to a lot). Her assistant Sabrina is also super sweet and helpful!!
Dr Kang is an outstanding Dermatologist. She has exceptional medical skills and is most knowledgeable regarding her area of expertise. She communicated well and listened to the patients’s concerns. She practiced shared decision making with me which facilitated the best clinical decision for the patient. It is without hesitation that I would recommend her to other patients. 5 ⭐️
Dr. Kang is a great physician. Her office staff are warm and efficient. I am very glad to have found her.
She is amazing sees patients on time and does a great job of getting rid of all those growths you get as you age
I recently had a laser procedure performed by Dr. Kang. I normally am very sensitive to pain but Dr. Kang and her team made the experience so easy. They were very kind and patient with me. I experienced virtually no pain, just a small amount of discomfort which I expected. They were very thorough in making sure I was comfortable. I’m thrilled with the results and can’t wait to go back for a second treatment. Highly recommend!
