The Gold Standard for Pigment Correction

The Q-Switched Nd:YAG (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) laser is an important breakthrough in photo-acoustic technology. Traditional lasers use heat, but this technology delivers ultra-short bursts of energy in nanoseconds, thereby “shattering” the deep-seated pigment into microscopic particles that the body will naturally flush out through its lymphatic system. For Indian skin prone to hyperpigmentation due to high melanin content and tropical sun exposure, this laser offers a precision-targeted solution that leaves the surrounding skin completely unharmed.

Comprehensive Clinical Indications

At Dermaspace, we utilize this versatile technology for a spectrum of concerns. It is the premier choice for Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) left behind by acne and other skin diseases and for Tattoo Removal in whose treatment it still remains the world’s most effective mode of therapy. It is also being extensively used in treatment of Freckles, Lentigines (sun spots), Nevus of Ota and other birthmarks with clinical precision. Further, it bleaches hair that can not be targeted by the laser hair reduction machine.

The “Hollywood” Carbon Peel Experience

Metro-based influencers and professionals love this! In this we apply a thin layer of carbon liquid on full face and then vaporize it giving the skin instant exfoliation. It also clears debris from deep within the pores thereby reducing the pore size and also stimulating collagen. The end result? Immediate “red-carpet ready” glow, more even toned skin, reduced oiliness, and a visible reduction in blackheads—all with zero downtime.

Safety Profile for Indian Skin Tones

Since Indian skin is of Fitzpatrick type IV–VI, it requires a delicate balance between energy and safety. When this balance is not taken care of, it may lead to rebound pigmentation or even burns. To counteract this, our Q-Switched Nd:YAG system features a “Top-Hat Beam Profile,” which eliminates “hot spots” and ensures uniform distribution of energy. Every time you take a session at Dermaspace, it is supervised by a senior dermatologist who will adjust the energy, pulse duration and frequency to suit your specific skin sensitivity.

Safety Profile for Indian Skin Tones

A typical session takes only 20 to 30 minutes. While you may notice an instant improvement in skin tone after one session, deep pigmentation or tattoo removal usually would require a series of minimum 4 to 8 sittings spaced 6-8 weeks apart. Post-treatment, you will not experience any major issue except slight redness in some which will go away by itself in a couple of hours. We will advise you regarding a tailored post-laser regimen which would consist of physical sunscreens and soothing ceramides to make the healing process rapid.

Frequently asked question

Your Questions answered with expert care

Is the Q-Switched laser safe for Indian skin?
Absolutely. Unlike older lasers, the Q-Switched Nd:YAG is very wavelength specific (1064nm) that is meant to target the deeper pigment by bypassing the superficial layers, making it one of the safest and efficacious mode for darker skin tones without any major side effects.
Does the treatment hurt?
Most patients describe it as mild tingling only. For tattoo removal and for lesions on sensitive areas like the face, we apply a topical numbing cream to make it absolutely pain free.
How many sessions will I need for tattoo removal?
Tattoo removal is a gradual process as it needs more skill and precision. The number of sessions would depend on the ink's depth, color, and age; it usually takes a minimum of 8 to 10 sessions. Amateur tattoos generally respond faster than professional ones.
Can I go back to work immediately after a Carbon Laser Peel?
Yes! The Carbon Laser Peel is a "zero-downtime" treatment. Your skin may have a little pinkish hue for a few minutes, but that tends to settle down. You will require just 20-30 minutes to get it done, you can even get it done in your lunch time and resume your daily activities immediately.
What should I avoid after the session?
Direct sun exposure, steam rooms and saunas and heavy workouts are to be avoided for 24–48 hours and use of a broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen is highly advisable.
