Laser pigmentation removal can help reduce the appearance of certain types of unwanted pigmentation by targeting excess pigment within the skin. At Lottie Laser Clinic in Rossendale, we use advanced Lynton Dynamix technology to treat suitable pigmentation concerns such as sun spots, age spots, freckles and localised brown marks.

Suitability depends on the type, depth and cause of the pigmentation, which is why a consultation is always required before treatment.

Our pigmentation treatments may be suitable for superficial pigmentation concerns such as sun spots, age spots, freckles, brown marks, sun damage and localised areas of uneven pigmentation.

Some types of pigmentation, such as melasma or deeper hormonal pigmentation, can be more complex and may not be suitable for laser pigmentation removal. During your consultation, we will assess your skin carefully and advise on the most appropriate treatment pathway.

Yes, laser pigmentation removal can be suitable for many sun spots, depending on their depth, colour and how long they have been present. Sun spots are one of the most common reasons clients visit us for pigmentation treatment in Rossendale.

After treatment, the pigmentation may temporarily darken before gradually lifting or fading as the skin renews.

Laser and light-based pigmentation treatments can help improve the appearance of age spots by targeting areas of excess pigment in the skin. Age spots are often linked to long-term sun exposure and usually appear on areas such as the face, hands, chest and shoulders.

A consultation is needed to confirm whether your age spots are suitable for treatment.

Laser pigmentation treatment can help reduce the appearance of some freckles, particularly where they are caused by sun exposure or uneven pigment. However, freckles can return or darken again with UV exposure, so daily SPF is essential after treatment.

We will advise whether your freckles are suitable for laser pigmentation removal during your consultation.

Results vary from person to person. Some pigmentation may fade significantly, while other pigmentation may only reduce in appearance. Complete removal cannot be guaranteed, as results depend on the type of pigmentation, skin type, depth of pigment and how your skin responds to treatment.

Our aim is to help create a clearer, brighter and more even-looking complexion while giving realistic advice from the start.

The number of pigmentation removal sessions needed will depend on the type, size, depth and amount of pigmentation being treated. Some small, localised sun spots or age spots may respond within a small number of sessions, while more widespread or stubborn pigmentation may require a course of treatments.

During your consultation at Lottie Laser Clinic, we will assess your skin and recommend a personalised treatment plan.

Most clients describe laser pigmentation removal as a quick warm flick or snapping sensation on the skin. The treatment is usually very manageable and sessions can be relatively quick, depending on the size of the area being treated.

We will talk you through what to expect before treatment so you feel comfortable and fully informed.

After laser pigmentation removal, the treated pigment may temporarily darken before it begins to fade. The area may look slightly dry, crusted or flaky as the pigment naturally lifts from the skin.

This is a normal part of the pigmentation treatment process. Full aftercare advice will be provided to help protect your skin and support the best possible results.

Downtime is usually minimal, although the treated area may appear darker, slightly red or dry for a short period after treatment. Some pigmentation may lightly crust or flake before fading.

You should avoid picking the area and protect the skin carefully from sun exposure while it heals.

Yes, pigmentation can return, especially if the skin is exposed to UV without protection. Sun exposure is one of the biggest triggers for pigmentation, including sun spots, freckles and uneven skin tone.

To help maintain your results, we strongly recommend daily broad-spectrum SPF and good skincare after your pigmentation treatment.

No. Laser pigmentation removal is not suitable on recently tanned skin, including natural tan, sunbeds or fake tan. Treating tanned skin can increase the risk of irritation, burns or unwanted pigment changes.

Your skin must be assessed before treatment, and we will advise how long you need to avoid tanning before and after your appointment.

Melasma is a more complex form of pigmentation and can be triggered by hormones, heat, sun exposure and inflammation. Laser treatment is not always the best option for melasma and, in some cases, may make it worse.

During your consultation, we will assess whether your pigmentation appears suitable for laser treatment or whether a different approach may be safer.

Yes, pigmentation treatment can help improve the appearance of uneven skin tone where the unevenness is caused by excess pigment, sun damage, freckles, age spots or localised brown marks.

If your uneven skin tone is linked with redness, general dullness or overall complexion concerns, we may also discuss whether an IPL skin rejuvenation treatment, such as our illumifacial™, may be more suitable.

Common areas for laser pigmentation removal include the face, hands, chest, shoulders, arms and other sun-exposed areas. These are often the places where sun spots, age spots, freckles and brown pigmentation are most noticeable.

Suitability will depend on your skin type, the pigmentation present and the area being treated.
