Target. Reduce. Even out.
High-precision laser technologies that target melanin build-up and gradually fade pigmentation marks.
PIGMENTATION
Visibly reduces uneven pigmentation
PRECISION
Selectively targets melanin-rich areas
COMPLEXION
Reveals a more even, radiant-looking complexion
Pigmentation, skin tone, unevenness: target, reduce and even out.
After the first session
Targeted pigmentation gradually lightens over the following weeks as the skin clears the pigment.
Over the course of treatment
With 1–3 sessions, depending on the type of pigmentation, 4–6 weeks apart, results develop progressively:
Maintaining your results
Daily sun protection is essential: the laser targets existing pigmentation but does not prevent new pigmentation from developing.
The number of sessions is determined during your medical consultation, and the doctor assesses your results at each stage. Individual results vary.

SESSIONS DEPENDING ON THE PIGMENTATION
4-6
WEEKS BETWEEN SESSIONS
Your Innerskin doctor assesses the nature of the pigmentation, its location, your skin type and your medical history to determine whether laser treatment is suitable.
Your doctor selects Hollywood Spectra™ or Clarity II™ according to the type of pigmentation and your skin. The settings are precisely adjusted before each session.
Laser energy is delivered to the pigmented areas to target the melanin responsible for the colour. The skin then gradually clears the targeted pigment.
Pigmentation laser uses specifically selected light energy to target the melanin responsible for certain brown spots.
Melanin is the natural pigment that gives skin its colour. When it builds up excessively or unevenly in certain areas, it can form visible marks.
The principle of the laser is to deliver energy that is preferentially absorbed by this pigment. Depending on the technology used, this energy targets and breaks up concentrations of melanin so that they are then gradually cleared by the skin's natural mechanisms.
However, not all brown spots are the same.
Some are superficial, others deeper. Some are mainly linked to sun exposure or skin ageing, while others may have a hormonal or inflammatory origin.
That is why a prior diagnosis is essential: a laser is not chosen simply because a spot is brown.
At Innerskin London, our doctors use Hollywood Spectra™ and Clarity II™ to adapt the technology to the nature of the pigment and your skin type.
A MULTI-TARGET ACTION
TWO TECHNOLOGIES FOR A PERSONALISED APPROACH TO PIGMENTATION
Not all pigmentation requires the same wavelength, energy or pulse mode.
HOLLYWOOD SPECTRA™
Hollywood Spectra™ is a specialist laser platform that uses very short pulses in particular to target pigment. The energy absorbed by the melanin creates a photoacoustic effect that breaks pigment particles into smaller fragments, which are then gradually cleared by the body. It may be selected for various pigmentation concerns depending on the nature of the spot, its depth and your skin type.
CLARITY II™
Clarity II™ is a dual-wavelength laser platform combining Alexandrite 755 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm. For certain pigmentation concerns, particularly when the pigment is superficial and sufficiently contrasted, your doctor can select the appropriate wavelength and settings to precisely target the melanin.
WHY TWO TECHNOLOGIES?
Because a superficial sun spot, deeper pigmentation and complex pigmentation do not behave in the same way. Having several technologies makes it possible to select the most suitable approach, rather than systematically using the same laser on every type of pigmentation.
Pigmentation laser may be suitable for people who wish to improve the appearance of certain types of pigmentation, such as:
AREAS
Depending on your concern:
A pigmented spot must always be correctly identified before being treated with a laser. If there is any doubt about the nature of a lesion, your doctor may request an additional dermatology opinion before any session.
