There are variety of different types of YAG lasers. Generally speaking, a YAG laser would be good at improving pigmentation, but are less effective at treating moles and freckles. They may have no place in the treatment of moles or freckles depending on your anatomy and the type of laser.I hope this helps
The Yag/Alexandrite laser is a great resurfacing treatment that will work to quickly eliminate deeper brown spots (sun spots) or pigmentation. Please have a consultation with a board-certified doctor to see what treatment is best for you. Depending on the selected course of treatment downtime can vary from two to five days. The right laser can help erase those spots over the course of several treatments. But keep in mind that your spots will reappear if you expose your skin to the sun. Please wear sun protection.
If you were injured in your eye with this laser you would have lost site or had dramatic change in vision and pain in the eye immediately. You likely have just irritation from the area being treated. I suggest speaking to your physician or seeing an eye doctor if you are concered....
I suggest posting photos, typically low density low level lasers like clear + brilliant, peels, and skin care are best over q switched/pico or yellow lasers in my opinion. Best, Dr. emer.
This is a potential complication for anyone getting lasers. I suggest you avoid any further treatments in this area and start scar prevention and pigmentation/complexion blending treatment at this time. Best, Dr. Emer.
I suggest starting pills to prevent fungal infection and to get a shot of a steroid. your dermatologist should evaluate this in person. Best, Dr. Emer.
