Pigmentation & Sun Damage

Age spots, sun damage and solar lentigines
Laser pigmentation

Pigment targeted at the source

Brown spots, sun damage and solar lentigines on the face, hands and chest. The 755nm Alexandrite wavelength of the Candela GentleMax Pro PLUS is absorbed selectively by melanin — the pigment fragments without damaging the surrounding skin.

Treatment is fast. Most facial sessions take 15 to 30 minutes and built-in cooling keeps each pulse comfortable. Visible improvement is usually seen within one to three sessions, with the best results coming from a course of three spaced four to six weeks apart.

A short consultation comes first. We assess your skin type and the specific pigmentation you're hoping to treat, then plan the right approach for your situation.

Daily SPF 30+ is essential after treatment and as ongoing protection. Without it, new pigmentation can develop in treated areas as sun exposure continues.

How it works
1
Selective absorption

The 755nm Alexandrite wavelength is preferentially absorbed by melanin, the pigment that gives age spots and solar lentigines their colour. The energy heats only the targeted spot, not the skin around it.

2
Pigment fragments

Heat fragments the pigment cluster into smaller particles. The device's built-in cooling protects surrounding skin throughout each pulse, keeping the treatment comfortable.

3
Body clears

Over the next 2 to 4 weeks the body's natural lymphatic clearance carries the fragmented pigment away. The treated spot darkens briefly as it lifts, then fades and falls away.

Bookable below: nose and face treatments — single sessions or three-session courses. All other areas (hands, decolletage, body, larger areas) require a consultation first so we can properly assess your skin and recommend the right protocol. First time? Your first visit is a free 15-minute patch test, then your treatment starts 24 hours later. Included in your course price.

Nose

Small-area treatment for age spots, sun damage or solar lentigines on the nose. 15-minute session with brief warm pulses, cooled throughout. Most concerns clear in one to three sessions.

Other areas

Hands, decolletage, neck, body. Larger areas beyond nose and face, treated case-by-case after assessment.

Larger areas need an in-person assessment. Skin type and sun history change how the laser is set, and pigment depth varies across the body. No single protocol fits every area. A consultation establishes your starting point, settings, and an honest session count.

Redness & Vessels

Broken capillaries and visible vessels
Redness & Vessels

Vessels closed at the source

Broken capillaries on the cheeks and nose, cherry angiomas and persistent rosacea redness. The 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength passes through the surface and is absorbed by haemoglobin inside the vessel — the vessel collapses and is reabsorbed by the body. Surrounding skin is left intact.

Most facial sessions take 20 to 30 minutes. Isolated lesions like cherry angiomas often clear in a single visit; diffuse redness and rosacea respond better across a course of three to six sessions spaced four to six weeks apart.

A short consultation comes first. We look at your skin type and the kind of redness you're hoping to treat, then plan the right laser protocol for your situation.

Suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types I to VI thanks to the Nd:YAG's deeper penetration. Avoid alcohol, hot drinks and spicy food for 24 hours before treatment to reduce flushing during the session.

How it works
1
Targeted at haemoglobin

The 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength passes through the skin surface and is absorbed by haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying molecule inside the targeted blood vessel.

2
Vessel collapses

The vessel walls heat from the inside and collapse. Surface skin is shielded by cooling throughout each pulse, so the surrounding area stays unharmed.

3
Reabsorbed

Over the next 2 to 6 weeks the body reabsorbs the closed vessel and the visible redness fades from view, leaving no scar tissue behind.

Bookable below: small-area and medium-area vascular treatments. Atypical or extensive vascular concerns require a consultation first. First time? Your first visit is a free 15-minute patch test, then your treatment starts 24 hours later. Included in your course price.

Small area

Small-area treatment such as the nose or several smaller lesions. Cherry angiomas, spider veins or small visible vessels are heated by the 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength until they coagulate. Most resolve in one to two sessions.

Rejuvenation

Skin toning and collagen stimulation
Laser skin rejuvenation

Collagen rebuilt from beneath the skin

Non-ablative collagen stimulation across face and neck. Controlled thermal energy is delivered beneath the surface of the skin, triggering the natural collagen and elastin response over the weeks that follow. No surface damage, no managed downtime.

Each session takes 45 to 60 minutes depending on the area treated. The laser delivers controlled warming pulses across the surface in a measured pattern — clients describe it as a deep, comfortable warmth rather than uncomfortable heat.

Results build gradually as new collagen forms over the following weeks. Most clients see noticeable change after three sessions, with the full effect usually reached after a course of six spaced four weeks apart.

Safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types. Maintenance treatments every three to six months keep results in place; we'll talk through long-term planning at your consultation.

How it works
1
Dermal heating

Non-ablative thermal energy is delivered beneath the skin surface in controlled pulses, warming the deeper dermis without breaking the protective outer layer.

2
Collagen response

Fibroblasts respond to the warming by producing fresh collagen and elastin. This rebuilding process happens gradually over the weeks and months following each session.

3
Skin rebuilds

Texture, firmness and tone improve gradually as the new collagen settles into place. The cumulative effect across a full course delivers the most complete result.

Bookable below: face and face + neck rejuvenation — single sessions, courses of 3 or 6. Other body areas (chest, hands, décolletage) require a consultation first. First time? Your first visit is a free 15-minute patch test, then your treatment starts 24 hours later. Included in your course price.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Is laser skin treatment safe for my skin tone?

Yes. The Candela GentleMax Pro PLUS uses two wavelengths — 755nm Alexandrite for lighter skin types and 1064nm Nd:YAG for darker skin tones — making it suitable across all Fitzpatrick skin types (I–VI), with the right wavelength selected at consultation.

How is laser skin different from laser hair removal?

The machine is the same, but the wavelength, energy and parameters are different. For hair, the laser targets pigment in the hair follicle. For skin, it targets pigment in a sun spot (pigmentation), haemoglobin in a vessel (vascular), or warms the dermis without breaking the surface (rejuvenation).

Will I need to prepare for the appointment?

Yes. Avoid sun exposure on the treatment area for two weeks beforehand. Don't use retinol or AHA products in the 5–7 days before. Come without makeup, fake tan, or perfumed lotions on the treatment area. We'll send you a full prep guide after booking.

Can I combine laser skin with other treatments?

Yes, and often we recommend it. Laser pigmentation pairs particularly well with DMK Even Tone for stubborn or recurrent pigmentation. Rejuvenation pairs with skin boosters or microneedling for compounded skin-quality results. Timing matters and we'll plan it at your consultation.

What happens if my skin doesn't respond as expected?

The patch test is our safety net before a full course. During the course we review progress at every session. If your skin responds differently than expected, we adjust the protocol or, occasionally, recommend an alternative approach. There's no penalty for changing direction.
