Thank you for your question. Certain lasers and chemical peel techniques can isolate a few freckles. It is best that you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon for an in-person evaluation.Best wishes,
Hi. There are several ways to treat a lone freckle. IPL (intense pulse light), chemical peel on just the freckle, Erbium or CO2 laser could all work. Best to have a in-person evaluation to discuss.
Thank you for sharing your question. With use of an Erbium laser freckles can easily be removed by me with minimal downtime. Good luck,
Thank you for your question. The best thing to do would be to make an appointment with a board certified dermatologist to evaluate the lesion to see if it is something that would need to be removed and biopsied. If it is just a freckled then it can be easily treated with an IPL. The IPL can be used to spot treat and is a safe and effective non scarring method to effectively remove scars and sunspots.
yes, it is possible to remove one freckle from the nose without scarring. There are many different options to do this. It can range from chemical peels, to laser based treatments, to radiofrequency to remove a freckle. It would be helpful to see a photograph to determine what kind of freckle it is as well as the underlying skin type. There's always a risk from any procedure of potentially scarring however the risk is small and minimal especially when performed by an experienced provider and technology.
Laser resurfacing is abit of an over kill for freckles, IPL or a Q switched laser can easily remove freckles. Even superficial TCA peels are an option. All the best, Dr Davin Lim.. Brisbane. Australia.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) or OPL (Optimized Pulsed Light) treatment is a quick procedure that is likely to help you if your lesion is flat and if there is no evidence of any other diagnosis there. It may several treatments, but it can be done safely without risk of scarring. Best wishes.
A combination of lasers, peels, skincare possible medical tattooing can help but will need a series of long term treatments for best results. Also fillers like Restylane Silk or Belotero can help as well to slightly plump the skin and make it look more pink. See the link provided that takes you...
Thank you for your question. It is important that the patient feels comfortable in their recovery technique. You should follow the recommendation of your board certified facial plastic surgeon and monitor how the recovery process feels on your skin.Best wishes,
This all depends on how large and area you are using the creams. For example, Melarase cream has 60 gm and you are supposed to apply 1 gm per day, for 60 days. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
Melasma is permanent and you will need long term treatment such as skin care, lasers, microneedling/PRP and peels to get improvement and then be put on a maintenance plan. Please see an expert for evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.
Collagen remodeling after any laser treatment is a process expected to take several months. At only two weeks after your treatment I am not surprised that the results are not yet apparent. Be patient and expect to see steady improvement over the next 2 - 3 months.
Some melasma has a hormonal basis so until you correct that problem, there is no longterm solution for melasma. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
