The Spectra Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser is considered the ‘gold standard’ in laser treatments for pigmentation. It is one of the only FDA-approved lasers to treat melasma and is safe for all skin types, including darker skin that may be harmed by other lasers. The Spectra laser treatment is very effective in reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation, brown spots, and freckles. The laser targets and breaks down the pigment into smaller particles that can be removed naturally by the body, leaving skin brighter with an even skin tone.
