'I have lots of small spots around my cheekbones.

But I keep hearing that one treatment session can

make them all go away...

Is that really true?'

When you see dramatic before-and-after photos after treatment, or hear that spots can disappear after just one session, you may feel a strong urge to get the procedure right away.

But if you think about it carefully, something feels a little off.

If all spots could really disappear after just one treatment, then no one in the world would have to worry about spot problems.

So today, let’s take a closer look at whether a spot removal procedure can really make all spots disappear cleanly in just one day, even with a single session.

Because toning is usually used for spot removal procedures, we’ll also look at the principles and effects of toning treatments.

How are spots removed?

These days, spot removal usually uses 'pico toning.'

The word 'pico' in pico toning refers to a unit of time meaning one trillionth of a second.

It works by dramatically shortening the time the energy touches the skin and striking the pigment particles strongly to break them down into very tiny pieces.

At the same time, the energy does not go to the surrounding normal skin and instead instantly targets only the pigment to shatter it.

Depending on the depth of the pigment, devices with different wavelengths are used.

The wavelengths 532nm, 694nm, 755nm, and 1064nm are commonly used, and larger clinics usually have a wider variety of devices, which increases the likelihood of receiving appropriate treatment tailored to the situation.

What are the effects?

Pico toning is effective for various pigmentation concerns, including spots, melasma, freckles, and redness.

After the procedure, melanin pigment is broken down into smaller pieces and gradually eliminated through the body’s lymphatic system.

In other words, it does not disappear instantly with a pop! right after the procedure, but rather becomes lighter, fades, and disappears over time.

Usually, people begin to notice the effects after about 5 to 10 sessions spaced apart.

Can spots be completely removed with one session?

Then shall we talk about the most important point?

Let’s talk about whether spot removal treatment can really make spots disappear completely after just one session, and whether it is possible for spots to be gone in just one day.

To give the conclusion first, in most cases it is realistically difficult for spots to disappear completely after just one treatment.

I also work as a doctor in a business setting, so if I exaggerated the effects and spoke in an overstated way, it might help attract more patients.

But what is not true is not true. Dramatic before-and-after photos or clinically observed results are highly likely to have been under very limited conditions.

That said, there are cases where spots can disappear even with one session. If they are extremely small and faint pigment lesions limited to the epidermis, it may be possible.

However, what we commonly call spots actually refers to a broad range of pigmentation issues, including freckles, lentigines, age spots, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and moles.

So,

It is not correct to say,

'one treatment can remove all spots,'

but rather,

'If the diagnosis is made accurately and it is indeed a very small, faint spot, results may be seen in about 1 to 2 sessions; otherwise, additional sessions are needed.'

This is the accurate way to put it.

So if you hear that spots can definitely disappear in one day, or that one session without a proper diagnosis can guarantee results, you may want to think again.

Today, we looked at the principles and effects of Yeongdeungpo spot removal pico toning, and whether it is really true that spots can disappear completely with just one session.

Diagnosis is very important for skin concerns. If an inappropriate procedure is performed due to a wrong diagnosis, the problem may not improve and could even worsen.

So rather than talking only about quick results, I recommend receiving treatment from a place that starts with a proper diagnosis first and then explains the number of sessions and expected effects. I’ll wrap up here.
