Pigmentation
The Fotofacial (Photorejuvenation) is the latest treatment for the reduction of facial redness, pigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles. This treatment has impressive results in reducing the ageing effects of sun damage as well as reducing the effects of facial redness.
Developed by a US dermatologist, the non-invasive treatment involves applying pulses of visible white light with a non-laser medical device to the full face, neck and/or chest areas. After a series of three to five treatments performed at three weekly intervals, patients will see a visible improvement in the appearance and texture of the skin. Discomfort during the treatment, which takes between 30 to 40 minutes, is minimal and the skin will look smoother even after the very first session. There is no recovery time required.
Patients can expect to be rid of brown spots and visible red capillaries as well as see a dramatic reduction in other skin pigmentation and fine lines.
This is in fact the first treatment ever available for the effective treatment of flushing or facial and neck redness. Unlike other facial rejuvenation treatments such as chemical peels and laser resurfacing, there is little discomfort and no disruption to normal activities. For people wishing to have smoother, healthier and younger-appearing skin, this is a wonderful, long-lasting treatment.
