Laser freckle removal is currently a very popular method for beauty and freckle removal, and is sought after by many female friends. However, there is a problem. Some people who believe in this freckle removal method think that it can quickly and safely remove freckles without side effects, while others completely deny this method, believing that it causes too much harm. In fact, we should treat laser freckle removal correctly. Let's comprehensively understand the advantages and disadvantages of laser freckle removal.
Advantages of Laser Freckle Removal
The benefits of laser freckle removal are mainly as follows:
Quick freckle removal
Traditional methods of freckle removal take a long time, while laser freckle removal only takes about 20 minutes. Depending on the condition of the freckles, several laser treatments can be repeated at intervals to effectively remove freckles.
Safe freckle removal
Laser freckle removal can be done safely. Laser penetrates the skin to target pigment spots and disperses them, without causing damage to the surrounding normal skin or causing allergies or tissue changes.
Effective freckle removal
Laser freckle removal can effectively and accurately remove facial freckles. Laser targets specific areas for freckle removal, without affecting other areas of the skin. It can precisely remove freckles with minimal trauma, without the need for hospitalization. The results are good.
Improvement of skin
In addition to effectively removing skin freckles, laser freckle removal can help improve the texture and elasticity of the skin. We know that laser not only breaks down and digests melanin, but also stimulates the regeneration of skin cells, making the skin smooth, delicate, and elastic.
Disadvantages of Laser Freckle Removal
Recurrent freckles after laser freckle removal
Although laser freckle removal has the characteristics of being fast, safe, and effective, it is prone to recurrence. If sun protection is not taken seriously in daily life, eating too much pigment, spicy foods, and so on, freckles may reappear.
Possible infection after laser freckle removal
Laser freckle removal can easily cause skin infections. On one hand, the operator should strictly disinfect during the procedure. On the other hand, it is important to keep the wound dry and clean for 3 days after the surgery. If necessary, anti-inflammatory drugs can be used under the guidance of a doctor.
Skin damage caused by laser freckle removal
Laser freckle removal can easily damage the surface of the skin, reduce the skin's self-repair and defense capabilities, and easily lead to problems such as redness, dryness, and aging of the skin when exposed to stimuli. This situation is more serious in the treated areas.
Precautions for Laser Freckle Removal
Laser freckle removal has both advantages and disadvantages. If you pay more attention to these aspects, the benefits will far outweigh the drawbacks.
Laser freckle removal is not suitable for everyone
Although laser freckle removal can effectively remove freckles, not everyone can use laser to remove freckles. For example, people with high blood pressure, diabetes; pregnant or breastfeeding women; people taking anti-inflammatory or psychotropic drugs; people with facial inflammation, and so on, should not undergo laser freckle removal.
Postoperative care is important after laser freckle removal
In order to have good freckle removal results, it is important to properly care for the treated area after laser freckle removal. For example, keep the wound dry and clean for the first 3 days after the surgery, and then moisturize the skin with hydration. The postoperative diet should be light and nutritious, with more foods rich in vitamin C, but avoid spicy, fishy, black-colored foods, as well as phototoxic foods such as celery and lemon. Sun protection is also necessary when going outdoors, and so on.
