ABOUT BROW SPOT REMOVAL
​
Benign pigmented lesions are a common cosmetic concern for many patients with a history of moderate sun exposure or photodamage. Solar lentigines may be the only sign of aging, which may create a psychological burden on patients.
HOW BROWN SPOT REMOVAL WORKS
​
Fast, Efficient, Proven
​
Gentle Pro devices incorporate state-of-the-art technology to deliver short pulses of light energy into the skin. The light energy
is absorbed disproportionately by the concentration of pigment which forms the unwanted lesion. This selective delivery of laser energy
destroys the excess pigment and fades the lesion, but remarkably leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected. This is the brilliance of laser light.
