Differentiation 1: Lentigo Laser Showing Results with Short-Term Treatment

Lentigo treatment finishes quickly.

At Kkeut Oriental Medical Clinic, in the primary stage, we precisely remove deep and distinct lentigo using a 532nm Nd:YAG laser, identical to the 'ReX Laser',

and only if necessary, in the secondary stage, we use an Er:YAG Erbium YAG laser to clear even faint residual pigmentation.

Most cases are completed in 2-3 sessions at most.

Without unnecessary repetitive treatments, we achieve clean results in a short period through accurate diagnosis and planning.

Kkeut Oriental Medical Clinic's lentigo treatment promises clear results.

Differentiation 2: The Reason for Our Meticulousness

Kkeut Oriental Medical Clinic prioritizes the quality of treatment, clearly limiting the number of clients treated per director per day.

The number of daily appointments per director is adjusted to approximately one-third of the industry average, which is a deliberate choice to dedicate more time and focus to each and every client.

Thanks to this system, thorough explanations and individualized treatment plans are possible throughout the entire process, from consultation to procedure and aftercare, allowing ample time to closely observe and respond to each client's skin condition and reactions.

As a result, the precision and satisfaction of the treatment are enhanced, realizing 'meticulous medical care' rather than simple repetitive consultations.

Kkeut Oriental Medical Clinic values results over time, and sincerely focuses on the skin of each and every client. We believe this is why most of our clients come to us through referrals.

Differentiation 3: Customized Settings

Considering skin tone, lesion size and depth, skin reactivity, etc., we adjust the spot size, pulse energy, and fluence.

For example, for bright skin with shallow pigmentation, we precisely irradiate with a small spot size and high energy; for skin with a risk of hyperpigmentation, we treat safely by adjusting the output.

Such detailed settings enhance the precision and satisfaction of treatment results, even when using the same laser equipment,

and are a key factor.

Differentiation 4: Recovery Planning After Treatment

Since 532nm lasers react quickly, crust formation or temporary erythema may occur after treatment, making regeneration and UV protection management extremely important.

Furthermore, because each client's pain sensitivity differs depending on the 532nm laser and secondary Erbium YAG laser treatments, we determine whether to apply anesthetic cream through prior consultation, and after the procedure, we provide soothing care with cooling and Jaurungo modeling packs.

Additionally, we provide DuoDerm within the clinic to aid in recovery and UV protection.

Differentiation 5: Only Lentigo? Design-Based Treatment Considering All Pigmentation

Most clients who visit us for lentigo removal also have dermal pigmentation such as melasma, in addition to lentigo.

While it's good to target and remove only lentigo, we believe clients ultimately wish to remove all uneven pigmentation.

After thorough consultation with the client and using diagnostic equipment, we classify the pigmentation on the face and then determine the treatment direction: whether to target only epidermal pigmentation or to remove all overall pigmentation.

Thus, we create bright faces for our clients, with a distinct difference.

Why do lentigo spots appear?

Solar lentigo is a flat, brown pigmented lesion primarily caused by UV exposure and skin aging,

where melanocytes become overactive, leading to excessive pigment deposition in specific areas.

Repeated exposure to UV radiation continuously stimulates melanin production,

and as one ages, the skin's regenerative capacity and pigment metabolism decrease, causing them to gradually become darker and spread wider.

They primarily appear on the face, back of hands, and arms, characterized by distinct borders and a dark brown color.

Location of Lentigo Distribution

Lentigo (solar lentigo) primarily occurs confined to the epidermal layer (Epidermis) of the skin,

specifically, melanocytes located in the basal layer become overactive due to UV stimulation,

resulting in a localized accumulation of melanin pigment.

Histopathologically, they do not penetrate the dermis, and represent a state of excessive melanin deposition within the epidermis,

with relatively clear borders observed between them and the surrounding normal tissue.

For this reason, they typically respond well to epidermal-targeted laser treatments such as Q-switched 532nm,

It is distinguished from melasma or mixed pigment lesions that affect the dermis.

532nm Wavelength

The 532nm wavelength is a green wavelength that falls within the range with the highest absorption rate for melanin pigment, selectively acting on pigment lesions confined to the epidermis of the skin.

The 532nm laser is typically used in a Q-switched manner, which instantaneously irradiates high-power energy in ultra-short pulses of several nanoseconds, destroying only the pigment particles.

These short pulses are selectively absorbed by melanin and converted into thermal energy, simultaneously generating a photomechanical effect, which breaks down melanin particles.

Some of the broken-down pigment flakes off as scabs, while others are expelled through the lymphatic system by macrophages.

As these destroyed pigments are removed, the lentigo visually lightens or disappears.

Kkeuthan Clinic's Lentigo Removal

Lentigo laser is the most effective wavelength for treating lentigo, but

the success of the treatment does not solely depend on the choice of wavelength.

It is only when an integrated treatment plan, considering accurate diagnosis and customized settings, is implemented,

that a truly differentiated outcome is achieved.
