There are different types of brown spots on the skin of the body and on the face. A correct clinical diagnosis is very important before deciding to eliminate these pigment spots. Thus, the most appropriate method to eliminate the brown spot is decided, safely and with the best aesthetic result.
At Ribe Clinic we have multiple medical lasers and other technologies that are used to remove pigment spots. For a melanocytic nevus we use the CO2 laser.
If the pigment spots on the face after being examined by a medical professional are melanocytic nevus type without atypia, they can be removed with a CO2 surgical laser. It is a fast and effective treatment, without incisions or stitches.
Anesthetic cream is applied on the pigment spot nevus type for 15 min, and then laser is performed and vaporizes the lesion. After the CO2 laser treatment to eliminate the pigment spot nevus type, it is recommended to use a healing cream for 5 days and a sun protection factor.
In case of pigment lesions with atypia, a biopsy is taken and analyzed by a Dermatopathologist.
