I'm asian lady w/ freckles & have been advised by my doctor for the Nd Yag KTP laser for removal of my freckles. Any suggestion?

Question

Do i need numbing cream for this? And may I know what is the setting/power of the KTP laser for freckles removal? I have only ever experienced a Q switched Nd Yag laser

Ramandeep Sidhu, MD · Answer

Freckles are considered sun damage, and for those who are of  Asian ethnicity and have sun damage or hyperpigmentation we strongly recommend PicoSure facials! This laser is safe for all skin types and targets hyperpigmentation/ sun damage, scarring, irregular skin texture, enlarged pores and also stimulates collagen. We recommend a series of at least 3 treatments, 4 weeks apart and we do not use numbing cream but have the Zimmer (blows very cold air).
