Lasers work principle

Lasers work by acting on targets on the bases of their colour. One consideration in choosing the right laser is the wavelength of the energy it emits.However, the final choice also depends on the background colour of one's skin, which may also interact with this energy.

How deep down in the skin the target is will also determine the success of the laser treatment. The further down the target is, the more difficult it is for traditional laser to reach. On its way down the laser also has to contend with different molecules. Therefore, the expert practitioner will prepare the skin appropriately to reduce the chance of side effects happening.

Aftercare is another major factor in successful treatment. Some components of aftercare required in individual circumstances include skin moisturization, rigorous application of sun protection, and other topical or oral medications.

Follow your doctors advise on proper aftercare. Attention to moisturising and to sun block regimes are of the utmost importance. Sunbeds are to be avoided at all cost.
