Pigmentation and Age/Sunspot Treatments
The natural aging process of the skin, frequent or excessively exposure to the sun as well as various other causes, such as hormonal changes during pregnancy or after childbirth or severe stress, can lead to a change of the outer skin.
There is a local change in the activity or the number of melanocytes and melanin in the compound layer between dermis and epidermis. These local irregularities are visible on the skin as a skin disorder.
The Xenon light is absorbed by the skin’s melanin and converted into heat. This leads to a protein coagulation of the pigment, the melanin flocculates. About 10 - 12 days after the treatment the skin surface can be "rubbed off". The treatment process is complete when the pigment disorder is decomposed on the skin without damaging the surrounding skin.
A positive change, i.e., a lightening of the pigment disorder is often visible immediately after the first treatment. At the latest this development starts a few hours after treatment. The pigmentation becomes lighter after each treatment and is often dissolved completely.
