Neo - Pigmentation / Melasma
Neo - Pigmentation / Melasma
Melasma can be complex, but treating it shouldn’t be. The Aerolase Neo Elite offers a precise, gentle approach to reducing pigmentation, safely restoring clarity and luminosity to the skin.
Using advanced MicroPulse 1064 nm technology, it breaks down excess pigment deep below the surface without harming the top layer, making it one of the safest laser options available for Black and darker skin tones.
The Experience
Each treatment is completely customised by Teresa Tarmey’s expert team. Melasma typically lightens noticeably after 3-5 sessions, performed every 3-4 weeks. In some cases, more sessions may be required depending on depth and density of pigmentation.
Results appear gradually as pigment is naturally reabsorbed and the skin renews itself. Some darkening or mild flaking may occur before brightening - a normal part of the clearing process.
Safe for All Skin Tones
The Neo Elite’s 1064 nm wavelength and MicroPulse technology allow energy to pass safely below the surface, minimising heat and virtually eliminating the risk of post-treatment hyper- or hypopigmentation. It’s widely recognised as the safest laser for melasma in darker and tanned skin types.
Realistic Expectations
Melasma is a chronic condition, it can be managed but not permanently cured. With professional care, results can be long-lasting, though factors like hormones and sunlight may trigger recurrence. Consistent SPF use and maintenance treatments are key.
