Types of pigmentation and choosing the approach
"Pigment spots" is an umbrella term, and the tactic depends on the type of pigment and how deep it sits. Solar lentigo, freckles and age-related ("senile") pigmentation are superficial melanin clusters that respond well to BBL photorejuvenation. Melasma and chloasma are hormone-dependent forms with deeper, more capricious pigment and need a careful, combined approach (more on the nature of the condition is in the article about melasma). When the pigment lies deep, treatment is combined with fractional laser rejuvenation. The exact type and depth are determined by hardware skin diagnostics before the procedure.
Hyperpigmentation treatment
BBL photorejuvenation is a procedure for removing signs of photoaging with powerful light of a certain wavelength. Under the influence of powerful dosed radiation, a certain wavelength, damaged skin cells with an excess of pigment are selectively destroyed. Damaged cells are replaced by young cells with no signs of damage. The technique acts selectively, only on damaged cells, neighboring healthy cells remain intact. The patient sees bright flashes of light and does not experience discomfort during the procedure.
The skin is protected from burns by a contact cooling system. The next day, the age spots darken and gradually disappear within two weeks. Removing age spots by BBL does not cause burns. After the procedure, there is no peeling of the skin, the patient can immediately apply makeup and return to his daily activities. This is a lunch break procedure. A great advantage of the Sciton BBL system is the ability to adjust the wavelength for a pigment spot of varying degrees of saturation. For dark formations, a "soft" wavelength is used which allows not to overdose energy and achieve results without side effects. Clarified in this way hyperpigmentation can be removed using a more "stiff" wavelength, which completely evens out the color of healthy and affected areas of the skin, without exposing the patient to unreasonable risk.
The BBL system allows you to choose individual treatment plane depending pigment depth and other clinical indicators.
If pigmentation comes together with prominent dilated vessels, they are treated as a separate targeted procedure - laser vascular removal in Kyiv.
Post-procedure recommendations
After BBL pigment spot removal, no special care is required. Photorejuvenation is a minimal-downtime procedure: the appointment takes 30-40 minutes, after which you can apply make-up and return to your usual routine. In cases of pronounced pigmentation, redness and slight puffiness may appear in the treated area for 1-3 days.
After the procedure the treated spots naturally darken - these are not crusts or skin damage, but pigment inside cells that gradually rise to the surface and shed within the normal rhythm of epidermal renewal. The Lumicor™ booster cream suppresses melanin synthesis, enhances the effect of the procedure and improves results, while its pronounced anti-inflammatory and anti-erythema action helps calm the skin faster, even out the tone and support uniform recovery of the treated areas.
- avoid the sauna for three days after the procedure;
- avoid sun exposure for 3 months after the procedure;
- when going outdoors, apply SPF 50 Melicor™ sunscreen for sensitive skin;
- from the first days after the procedure, add Lumicor™ to your daily care - to improve results, support skin recovery, and to treat and prevent hyperpigmentation (your doctor will suggest an individual regimen).
Your doctor will give you more detailed recommendations during the consultation.

FAQs
Is the procedure painful?
BBL pigment removal is comfortable and does not require a long recovery period. The integrity of the skin is not broken. It is a lunch-break procedure.
How many treatments are needed?
It is individual; usually 1 to 3 treatments are needed. You will notice changes after the first treatment - the pigmentation darkens the next day and then fades by day 7-10. Repeat treatments gradually lighten the pigmented areas.
Can pigmentation return?
Besides external factors, pigmentation is driven by the hormonal background, oral contraceptives and inflammation in acne. Following simple recommendations helps achieve lasting results. Remember prevention: hidden pigmentation, invisible in ordinary light but visible under UV diagnostics, can become saturated over time, so courses of photorejuvenation and daily SPF help prevent it.
Can the procedure be done during pregnancy?
Pigment removal is contraindicated during pregnancy, since hormonal changes can increase pigment formation. For pregnant patients we offer safe programs from PCA Skin, USA.
Which method is most effective?
Effectiveness depends on the type of the condition, the intensity and the depth of the pigment. With skin diagnostics we determine the depth of hyperpigmentation and select an individual treatment plan. Hormonal forms usually also require cosmeceutical brightening agents.
Are laser and cosmetics enough?
Removing pigmentation is a complex dermatological problem, which drives the search for ways to improve treatment effectiveness.
GliSODin is a pigmentation treatment by the French company IsoCell. It is a plant-based superoxide dismutase preparation - the most active antioxidant in our body. GliSODin increases the effectiveness of laser therapy threefold. At our clinic in Kyiv you can also take a course with this preparation.
