Solar lentigines are beige, brown, or black spots on the skin that are caused by exposure to the sun over time, aging, and genetics. There are different types:
- Aging
- Sunspots
Treatments for skin blemishes:
The IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) system is a kind of special lamp, which has the ability to move the same direction and amplitude of the pulsed light. This is ideal for treating vascular lesions, as the effect that IPL has on the skin encourages more collagen to be produced. It is also used in dermatological treatments for the removal of sun spots, veins of the skin.
The Pixel system consists of programming a laser beam to penetrate the skin, thus creating an ablative thermal effect at the point (pixel), without affecting the surrounding tissue. These areas launch the healing process, so that the collagen is restructured, the dermis tightens and its texture improves on the surface.
