Equipment Used in the Popular Unlimited Stain Removal Plan
Tri-beam (YAG Laser)
Wavelength
It is possible to use two different wavelengths: 532nm and 1064nm.
Features
Tri-beam (YAG Laser) has a "PTP mode" exclusively for laser toning. This also helps treat melasma, which has been difficult to treat.
It is characterized by less irritation to the skin than the normal mode, and the treatment can be performed with less pain, making it easier to receive treatment even for those with sensitive skin.
In addition, because the irradiation time is short and only the melanin pigment is irradiated, damage to the skin can be minimized.
Downtime
After the treatment, you may experience temporary inflammatory symptoms, such as scabbing, redness, and pigmentation, for several days.

FAQ
- Is it possible to provide treatment that also takes into account hidden stains that are not visible?
-
Yes, it is possible. We will suggest a treatment method tailored to your symptoms. If you would like a more detailed analysis, we also offer skin diagnosis using the latest equipment. First, please feel free to share your concerns during a free consultation.
- Is it okay to just have counseling?
-
Yes, of course, it's okay. The purpose of counseling is to address your worries and concerns. We do not pressure you to proceed with treatments, so please feel free to come.
- How should I take care of my skin after the treatment?
-
After the treatment, your skin may be temporarily sensitive. When applying protective tape or ointment, please follow your doctor's instructions. Be sure to take proper precautions against UV rays and stay well-hydrated.
- When can I start wearing makeup?
-
You can apply makeup to areas other than the affected area immediately after the treatment. The affected area can be treated once the scab has naturally fallen off.

-

-
Yes, that's perfectly fine. Please let us know what you hope to achieve and your concerns during counseling. We will recommend the most suitable treatment for you.
- I don't know which treatment to choose. Is counseling alone enough?
-
Yes, please feel free to contact us first. We will consider your concerns, symptoms, and skin type to recommend the most appropriate treatment for you.
- I'm sensitive to pain, is that okay?
-
The pain varies depending on the type of laser and the condition of the stain, as well as from person to person. It may feel similar to the snap of a rubber band. This treatment can be done without anesthesia, but if you're concerned, we also offer anesthetics and laughing gas anesthesia, so please ask during your consultation.
