What is Q-Switched Alexandrite Laser Treatment?

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.

From the start, Dr. Kang was so comforting with her calming nature and extensive knowledge I knew I was in the right place to finally get this cyst extracted.Her office is extremely clean, her team is so pleasant, always calls back within minutes and immediately answers any questions or concerns I’ve had.I had to remove my own sutures as I was now back home, and Dr. Kang made herself available and even FaceTimed us as we were nervous about removing the stitches correctly. She guided us through the whole process with ease and care. I could not ask for a better experience. Thank you again Dr. Kang and your whole team!
