~ safe and effective across many skin types
~ best results are seen with 3 treatments depending on the size and darkness of the pigmented area

o desired area is evenly targeted and a beam is delivered that penetrates the discoloration
o a minimal amount of discomfort can be felt as this is not 100% painless but tolerable for the average person
o the area targeted will begin to darken in the few days after treatment
o darkened area then sloughs off and targeted area under is lighter
~ After treatment stay out of the Direct sun for up to a week
~ Do not scrub darkened spots off, let them slough off naturally
~ SPF should be regularly worn so treated areas are not darkened and damaged by the sun
