What Laser Best for Freckle Removal?

Thank you for your question. If you would like the least number of treatments, I would recommend a fractional Iablative device such as CO2. The next best may be a fractionated sublative laser such as e matrix.  An Alex laser can also spit treat with minimal downtime and expense. Whichever method you decide, I would recommend being treated under the supervision of a Board Certified Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon for safest and best treatment option. I hope this helps.

The Alexandrite or frequency doubled Neodynium Yag lasers, and the glass tip V-beam lasers are very effective to reduce pigment that is focal.  Possibly a few treatments may be necessary, but many patients need only one or two. There may be some slight scabbing for five days that require oinment or cream to be applied for good healing for five days or so.  Certainly the pigment should be evaluated to make sure that the freckles are OK and not showing any atypical presence prior to laser treatment. Seeing a board certified dermatologist might be prudent. The Fraxel Dual laser also works very well but may require more treatments and is better for diffuse sundamage pigmentation than treating individual freckles.  Sun protection is a must.
