Smooth texture, reduce redness, or support scalp health: Laser for targeted results
At Queensland Skin and Laser, we offer a range of light and laser treatments designed to address a variety of skin and scalp concerns. From vascular changes, pigmentation, and sun damage to fine lines, scarring, and thinning hair, each treatment works by targeting specific layers of the skin or underlying tissue to support natural repair processes. Treatments include vascular lasers, Q-switched lasers, CO2 and erbium resurfacing lasers, IPL, and combination therapies such as RF microneedling with lasers.
Every patients’s skin goals are unique, so a personalised consultation is essential to assess your concerns, determine which approach may be most suitable, and discuss what to expect. Exploring these options with a qualified clinician allows you to make informed decisions about your care and choose treatments that align with your individual needs. Read on to learn more about each type of laser and how they may help support your skin and scalp health.
1064nm Vascular Laser
The 1064nm vascular laser targets visible blood vessels and vascular concerns such as facial veins, rosacea, or red spots. It works by delivering a specific wavelength of light absorbed by the blood within the vessels, which can reduce their appearance over time. This laser is generally considered suitable for a range of skin types, including darker skin tones, but a personalised consultation is essential to assess your skin, discuss suitability, and develop a safe treatment plan.
1540nm Non-Ablative Laser
The 1540nm erbium laser is commonly used for skin rejuvenation, improving texture, tone, and the appearance of fine lines or mild scarring. It delivers controlled heat to the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate natural collagen production while leaving the surface intact. This type of laser can be suitable for a range of skin types, including darker skin tones, but a consultation is necessary to assess your skin and discuss the most appropriate approach for your individual goals.
2940nm Dual Mode Laser
The 2940nm dual mode laser addresses wrinkles, scarring, and textural irregularities by targeting both superficial and deeper layers of the skin. It removes controlled layers of skin while supporting natural repair processes. A consultation is important to review your skin type, concerns, and suitability for this treatment.
CO2 Ablative Laser
CO2 laser resurfacing treats wrinkles, deep lines, scars, and uneven skin texture. The laser removes targeted layers of skin to promote collagen formation and natural skin regeneration. A personalised consultation is required to determine whether this treatment is appropriate for your skin and goals.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
IPL is a non-invasive, broad-spectrum light treatment targeting concerns like pigmentation, broken capillaries, age spots, rosacea, sun damage, acne scarring, and uneven skin tone. It uses multiple wavelengths to penetrate the skin, breaking down pigmented cells and hemoglobin, while encouraging collagen production for smoother, firmer skin.
Q-Switch Laser
Q-Switched lasers target unwanted pigmentation such as sun spots, freckles, or certain benign pigmented lesions. Short, high-intensity pulses of light are absorbed by pigment in the skin, helping to break it down over time. This laser can be suitable for a range of skin types, including darker skin tones, but a personalised consultation is required to assess your skin and discuss expected outcomes.
Fungal Toenail Laser Treatment
The 1064nm Nd:YAG laser may assist in managing fungal toenail infections. It delivers heat through the nail to target the fungus while leaving surrounding tissue intact. A personalised consultation is essential to determine whether this approach may support your specific condition.
Mole Removal Laser
Treatment
Ablative lasers can remove benign or cosmetic skin lesions such as moles. The laser vaporises the targeted tissue layer by layer. A thorough consultation is essential to assess the lesion, discuss your options, and ensure safe treatment.
This combination pairs radiofrequency (RF) microneedling with CO2 laser to address wrinkles, scarring, and uneven texture. The two technologies work together to support collagen production and skin regeneration. A personalised consultation is required to determine suitability and discuss expected outcomes and recovery.
RF Microneedling +
1540nm Laser Duo
RF microneedling combined with the 1540nm laser targets skin texture, scarring, fine lines, and skin laxity. RF needles create controlled micro-injuries while the laser stimulates collagen in the deeper layers of the skin. A consultation is important to assess whether this combination is suitable for your skin and goals.
Laser therapy using 1540nm erbium laser or 2940nm dual mode laser may be used to support scalp health and address concerns such as thinning hair. The lasers work by delivering targeted energy to the scalp to stimulate natural repair processes and support collagen production. A personalised consultation is essential to assess your scalp, discuss suitability, and determine the most appropriate treatment for your individual needs.
IPL or Laser Consultation
A consultation for IPL or laser treatment allows your clinician to discuss your skin concerns, review your medical history, and determine which approach may be appropriate for your individual needs. It provides an opportunity to explain the options, what the treatment involves, and any precautions, ensuring safe and suitable care.
