What is the Hollywood Spectra Q-Switch laser?
The Hollywood Spectra Q-Switch Laser is a cutting-edge treatment designed to reduce unwanted hyperpigmentation by safely targeting melanin, improving skin tone, and minimising dark spots, melasma, and uneven pigmentation.
How does the Q-Switch Laser work for hyperpigmentation?
The laser emits high-intensity pulses that break down melanin clusters associated with hyperpigmentation. This process allows the body to naturally clear pigmentation over time, revealing a clearer, more even skin tone.
Is the Hollywood Spectra Q-Switch Laser safe for all skin types and skin tones?
Yes, Hollywood Spectra is safe for all skin types and tones. The treatment is gentle yet effective and can be customised based on individual skin needs to ensure safety and efficacy.
How many sessions are needed for optimal results?
Thought many customers see significant improvement after 1 session. For best results, a series of 3-5 sessions spaced a few weeks apart is usually recommended.
However, the number of sessions may vary depending on individual skin concerns and goals.
Does the treatment have any downtime?
Hollywood Spectra Q-Switch Laser has minimal to no downtime. You may experience slight redness immediately after, but this typically subsides within a few hours, allowing you to resume daily activities.
What can I expect during the treatment?
During the treatment, you may feel a warm sensation as the laser pulses are applied to your skin, but it is generally painless and comfortable. Your skin may appear slightly red immediately after, but this will fade quickly.
When will I see results?
You may notice improvements in skin tone and clarity after one session, with more significant results developing over multiple treatments as pigmentation continues to fade.
Your Dermal Clinician will guide you on the expected timeline based on your treatment plan.
How should I prepare for my Q-Switch Laser session?
To prepare, avoid sun exposure and refrain from using retinol, exfoliants, or other harsh skincare products for at least a week before your appointment.
Your Dermal Clinician may also recommend using a tyrosinase inhibitor pre-treatment to prevent pigmentation issues.
What post-care is recommended after the Q-Switch Laser treatment?
- Avoid direct sun exposure and use SPF50+ to protect your skin.
- Refrain from using retinol, exfoliants, or harsh products for a few days post-treatment.
- Avoid hot showers, saunas, and vigorous exercise for 24 hours to prevent skin irritation.
- Stay hydrated and moisturise your skin to enhance the treatment results.
Why is using a tyrosinase inhibitor recommended before laser toning?
Using a tyrosinase inhibitor before Laser Toning is recommended to reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Tyrosinase is an enzyme responsible for melanin production, which can become overstimulated during laser treatments. By using a tyrosinase inhibitor, melanin production is controlled, minimising the chances of developing dark spots or uneven skin tone after the procedure, ensuring smoother and more even results.
