Medlite Laser Treatment in South Africa

Melanin is what provides our skin its color. The quantity of melanin in your skin is what determines if you have a light or dark skin tone. Pigmented lesions are dark in color since the melanin is concentrated in one section of the skin, often due to overexposure to the sun’s destructive ultraviolet rays.

It is essential to avoid sun exposure and to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen for 14 days before treatment. You must also inform your doctor of any health issues or history of abnormal scarring.
