Dark spots are a skin condition <\/span>caused by excessive melanin production<\/b>. Melanin is responsible for determining skin pigmentation and hair color. When the body produces too much melanin, dark brown spots and discoloration of the skin result.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are several factors that can trigger the production of melanin.<\/b>. Among these factors are excessive exposure to the sun, pregnancy or laser treatments.<\/span><\/p>\n

Laser treatments are generally safe<\/b>. However, using the wrong laser machine on the wrong skin type can trigger excessive melanin production. Increased melanin can lead to hyperpigmentation.<\/span><\/p>\n

In post-laser hyperpigmentation, dark spots and skin lesions may appear. <\/span>These side effects usually go away on their own.<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have developed this skin condition after laser treatment, the good news is that <\/span>there are multiple treatment options to cure the problem<\/b>. Read on to meet them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who is more susceptible to dark spots after laser?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Although laser treatments <\/span>are a safe and effective therapy<\/b> for the <\/span>stain removal<\/a><\/strong><\/span> From acne and other skin conditions, pigmentation damage can occur in both men and women. There are particular skin types that are more susceptible to dark spots after laser.<\/span><\/p>\n

Darker skin types, in particular <\/span>African Americans, Caribbeans and South Americans <\/b>they are more prone to hyperpigmentation after laser. These skin tones are not only more sensitive to light therapy, but also to the type of laser used.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, some lasers penetrate deep into the skin, <\/span>avoiding the superficial layer of melanin<\/b>; while other lasers do not and can affect the melanin in the upper layer of the skin, causing its reaction.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

How long do dark spots last after laser?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

dark spots after laser<\/span> are temporary and resolve on their own<\/b>. The time they take to disappear may vary from patient to patient. It also varies depending on whether the laser treatment has been more superficial and in the epidermal layer, rather than affecting the epidermis and dermal or deeper layers, where melanin can become trapped and appear discolored.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, if you see that it has been quite a while, and the dark spots after laser are persistent, <\/span>multiple treatments may be needed<\/b>such as topical skin lightening products or cosmetic procedures, and time to see if the pigmentation fades and your skin returns to normal.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.clinicaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/\u00bfPor-que-aparecen-manchas-oscuras-en-la-piel-despues-de-un-tratamiento-facial-con-laser.png\u00bb alt=\u00bbEn Cl\u00ednica ICA utilizamos la \u00faltima tecnolog\u00eda l\u00e1ser en nuestros tratamientos para evitar que aparezcan manchas en la piel\u00bb title_text=\u00bbEn Cl\u00ednica ICA utilizamos la \u00faltima tecnolog\u00eda l\u00e1ser en nuestros tratamientos para evitar que aparezcan manchas en la piel\u00bb align=\u00bbcenter\u00bb force_fullwidth=\u00bbon\u00bb src_tablet=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.clinicaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Como-corregir-la-aparicion-de-manchas-oscuras-en-la-piel-tras-un-tratamiento-con-laser.png\u00bb src_phone=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.clinicaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/En-Clinica-ICA-utilizamos-la-ultima-tecnologia-laser-en-nuestros-tratamientos-para-evitar-que-aparezcan-manchas-en-la-piel.png\u00bb src_last_edited=\u00bbon|desktop\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.19.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb2px|||||\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb0px|||||\u00bb hover_enabled=\u00bb0″ global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb sticky_enabled=\u00bb0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.18.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb width=\u00bb100%\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb0px||||false|false\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb||||false|false\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.16″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.19.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb||51px|||\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb1px|||||\u00bb hover_enabled=\u00bb0″ global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb sticky_enabled=\u00bb0″]
