At Sanssouci Wellness Clinic, we are proud to offer Carbon Q-Switch Laser, a cutting-edge solution for a variety of skin concerns. This advanced laser technology uses powerful light pulses to target and break down pigments in the skin, providing an effective treatment for tattoo removal, pigmentation issues, and skin rejuvenation. Whether you’re looking to remove an unwanted tattoo, lighten age spots, or treat other pigmentation concerns, Carbon Q-Switch Laser offers a safe, non-invasive option with remarkable results.
The Carbon Q-Switch Laser uses high-intensity light energy that is delivered in rapid, short pulses. These pulses target specific pigments in the skin, such as those found in tattoos, freckles, sun spots, or melasma. The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment, breaking it down into smaller particles, which are then naturally eliminated by your body.
The “Q-Switch” technology refers to the ability to switch the laser on and off very quickly, making it incredibly effective in targeting unwanted pigmentation without harming the surrounding skin. Depending on the treatment area and the skin concern, different wavelengths of light are used to provide customized treatment, ensuring optimal results with minimal discomfort.
During the Carbon Q-Switch Laser treatment, you may feel a slight tingling or snapping sensation as the laser targets the pigment. A cooling gel may be applied to the skin to minimize discomfort, and the entire procedure typically takes just 20-30 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
After the treatment, you may experience some redness or mild swelling in the treated area, similar to a light sunburn, which should subside within a few hours. For tattoo removal, the treated area may appear slightly darker before it begins to fade, and you may notice your skin shedding or flaking as the pigment is broken down and eliminated by your body.
