Best laser pigmentation removal machines
Laser machines are considered to be one of the most effective and safest ways for pigmentation removal. As there are so many laser machine suppliers on the market, we should be aware of which laser is the best for us.
This article will help you know pigmentation, its origins, and safe and effective treatment options. Before selecting a laser machine, we would like to introduce you to pigmentation and why it happens.
What is pigmentation and why does it happen?
Pigmentation is a common skin lesion mainly showing on the face, neck, and body. Hyperpigmentation is a change in the color, extent, and depth of pigmentation of the skin due to various reasons.
There are two types of pigments. The 1st type: is the pigments produced by the body itself, such as melanin produced by melanocytes present in the skin. The 2nd type: is different shades of melanin depending on the shade of the area. In the epidermis it is black or brown; Grey-blue in the superficial dermis; Cyan in the deeper dermis, etc.
The main reasons for leading pigmentation are endocrine disorders, weakened metabolism, dry skin, aging, sun exposure, ultraviolet radiation, lack of sleep, physical exertion, etc.
Aging and increased discoloration seriously affect people’s facial appearance. As a result, the psychological stress of aging is exacerbated, thus affecting the quality of life.
The types of pigmentation
What is the best laser technology for pigmentation removal?
1. Pico laser machine
Pico laser machine adopts advanced non-surgical and non-invasive laser skin treatment which can treat almost all types of tattoos, epidermis pigmentation, and dermis pigmentation. Pico laser is also effective for acne scars and pico technology is regarded as one of the most advanced laser treatments currently available on the market. With these multifunctional treatments, pico laser has become one of the most popular treatments for pigmentation and tattoos.
Pico laser machine provides a “0” downtime laser skin resurfacing treatments. There are 4 treatment tips applied for picolaser machine. 1064nm, 532nm, 1320nm, and 755nm. The Pico laser machine transfers 755nm power in picoseconds; the delivery is very fast and it spares the skin from high thermal damage while optimally targeting unwanted pigment, wrinkles, acne scars, and pores with less downtime than traditional lasers.
2. Q-Switched ND YAG Laser machine
Q switch laser machine is an advanced technology for tattoo removal, pigmentation removal, and carbon laser peel treatments. The laser has 3 types of treatment heads, 1064nm, 532nm, and 1320nm. 1064nm penetrates deeper and works perfectly on black, blue, and dark colors. 532nm works well on red and brown colors. 1320nm is for skin rejuvenation and acne treatments.
3. Fractional CO2 laser machine
Fractional CO2 laser machine is a revolutionary new technology for anti-aging treatments, it has minimum risk of side effects and recovery time. The whole procedure by carbon dioxide is effective and long-term. The fractional CO2 laser is widely used for pigmentation removal, pores improvement, acne scars, stretch marks, and vulva beatifying. The laser machines have 3 types of laser heads, which is fractional laser heads, cutting laser heads, and vaginal treatment heads. The factional laser heads can used for pigmentation removal, wrinkle removal, anti-aging, and laser skin resurfacing. The laser cutting heads are used for cutting unwanted moles and warts. The vaginal treatment head is for vaginal tightening and rejuvenation.
4. IPL machine
IPL machine is an advanced technology to treat unwanted hairs and reduce the spots on the skin. IPL procedure is non-invasive and non-surgical, it has no downtime and is safe for all skin types. IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light and is a type of light treatment that uses strong pulses of light to stimulate or treat various issues within the skin. IPL has a wide scope of application for medical clinics, spas, and even for home use.
Unlike lasers, IPL is a wide spectrum and the wavelength is from 400nm to 1200nm. The wavelength decides the IPL machine could treat a lot of skin lesions, such as hair removal, skin rejuvenation, pigmentation removal, acne treatment, and vascular lesions. As these wavelengths are worked on the skin, the light is unable to distinguish between the chromophores within the skin. It works by progressively reducing the re-growth of hair by applying gentle pulses of light to heat to the hair root (hair follicle).
Best Laser pigmentation removal machines
1. Cynosure picosure laser machine
The PicoSure Pro device delivers 755nm energy in picoseconds; the delivery is so quick that it spares the skin from high thermal damage while optimally targeting unwanted pigment, wrinkles, acne scars, and pores with less downtime than traditional lasers.
2.FOTONA Laser machine
Operating two complementary laser wavelengths, this versatile device has wide-ranging applications in hyperpigmentation conditions, including melasma treatment. Essentially, the FOTONA laser bypasses the skin surface harmlessly, penetrates the dermis layer, and generates thermal energy to break up the melanin pigments into smaller particles which the body expels naturally. Fotona laser is well tolerated by the skin so it is suitable for all skin types.
3. Lumenis Stellar M22 laser tattoo removal machine
The Stellar M22™ is a powerful modular multi-application platform, inspired by the brightest constellation in the sky. It is widely used for tattoo removal, pigmentation removal, and other facial treatments. It enables you to safely and effectively treat different indications in different skin types, ages, and genders, without the need for disposables.

4.Astanzalaser ND YAG laser machine
When it comes to Q-Switched (QSW) lasers, there are a few key components to discuss:
The laser
The gain medium
The Q-switching mechanism
Laser
The word ‘laser’ is an acronym for ‘Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.’ Lasers are monochromatic, which means that photons emitted will be moving at a wavelength (i.e., color) determined by the gain medium. They are also collimated, meaning that in a vacuum, the light beam won’t spread out.
Lasers fall into various classifications, dependent on the power emitted. These classifications vary from Class I (one, or 1), to Class IV (four, or 4). Most lasers used in aesthetics and all lasers for tattoo removal are Class IV laser devices. This means they are the most powerful class of laser, and goggles or patient eye shields are required to be worn for safe use of the device.
5.VIVALaser Q-switched ND YAG Laser machine VA-402
Q switch Laser tattoo removal machine is a type of high-power Q-switched ND YAG Laser. With 10 Hz frequency and 2000mj power, the laser is effective for all kinds of tattoo treatments. This passive Q-switched Nd: YAG Laser will help you fade and remove professional, amateur, or traumatic tattoos.
