Melasma, dark spots, and redness do not share one cause. Melanin, blood vessels, and skin texture can combine to make the complexion look uneven. Triple toning uses different laser wavelengths to address pigmentation and vessels separately.
How it works
Lower-power laser passes gradually reduce pigmentation rather than treating it all with one strong pass. The clinic describes redness that does not last long, with washing and makeup possible the same day. If needed, a CO2 laser can be used for moles and spots, while the SR program addresses texture and radiance.
How many sessions?
Pigmentation does not disappear in one session. Treatment is repeated at intervals of two to four weeks. The number and spacing of sessions depend on the type and depth of pigmentation and are decided during consultation.
After treatment
Skin is sensitive to sunlight after toning. Without careful sunscreen use, pigmentation may return. The clinic emphasizes sun protection as part of the result.
Procedure outcomes vary by person.

FAQ
01 Can I return to daily life right after triple toning?
Yes. Because low-power laser is applied in several passes, redness does not last long and you can wash and wear makeup the same day.
02 How many triple toning sessions will I need?
The schedule depends on the type and depth of pigmentation. Sessions are often repeated every two to four weeks, with the number set during consultation.
03 Can melasma return after triple toning?
After toning, skin is sensitive to UV. Without careful sunscreen use, pigmentation can return.
Aftercare guidance
Four ways to support recovery.
Sun protection

For one week, avoid scrubs, peels, and exfoliating cloths. Wash gently with a mild cleanser.
Wait one week before using saunas or steam rooms
