Spot Treatment with Laser

   Different lasers are used for removal of pigment (macula, lentigo, nevus). But especially nevuses and lentigos must not be removed before evaluation of them by a doctor. Even though there are certain doctors who tries to remove these lesions with laser too as they do not have surgical authorization, it will be more suitable and logical to remove such lesions with surgical method. Sunspots, birth marks and some keratosises can be removed with a healthy way with appropriate lasers. Q-switched lasers are the ideal lasers for the treatment of these problems and provide cleaning without leaving any corrosion in the skin. Thus the laser systems that are most frequently used are Q-switched KTP, Nd-YAG and Ruby lasers. 1-2 application may be necessary in surface problems such as lentigo and sunspot and a few applications may be necessary in depth blots. Q-switched lasers may provide very positive results in the treatment of face blots which are problems of most of the women and know as Chloasma by application techniques those are recently developed. Blots related to sub can appear again if the patient sub bath again. Thus the patients must avoid from sun bathing or bronzing with artificial light sources after such operations. But blots those are newly occurred can be treated.
