Dark Spot and Hyperpigmentation Treatment in Berlin-Zehlendorf
An Even Skin Tone Through Modern Dermatology
Pigmentation spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tones are often caused by UV radiation, hormonal changes, inflammation, or the natural aging process. Melasma, in particular, represents a challenging form of pigmentation disorder that requires specialized, medically sound therapy concepts.
At the SCHÖNE HAUT dermatology practice in Berlin-Zehlendorf, Dr. Meike Schröder offers individualized treatments at the highest medical level. Our goal is a visibly even, clear complexion—while ensuring maximum protection for your skin.
Effective Treatment of Pigmentation Spots & Melasma
PicoSure® Laser
The PicoSure® Laser is currently the only laser with US FDA clearance for the treatment of melasma. This clearance underscores its clinical significance in treating pigmentation disorders that often respond poorly to traditional laser systems.
PicoSure® operates with ultra-short light pulses in the picosecond range. Utilizing a photoacoustic effect, it precisely shatters pigment particles without causing thermal damage to the surrounding tissue. These fine pigment fragments are then naturally cleared by the body’s lymphatic system. This makes the treatment exceptionally gentle and reduces the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation—a decisive advantage when treating melasma.
Furthermore, it stimulates skin regeneration, leading to a visible improvement in skin texture.
Advantages of the PicoSure® Laser at our Berlin-Zehlendorf practice:
- Only laser with FDA clearance for melasma
- Highly effective reduction of pigmentation spots
- Minimal heat development, maximizing skin protection
- Suitable for various skin types
- Short downtime and sustainable results
Additional Treatments for Pigmentation Disorders
Lumenis IPL (Intensive Pulsed Light) Treatment
IPL technology (Intense Pulsed Light) is a well-established procedure in aesthetic dermatology used to treat various skin conditions. By utilizing broadband light, specific skin structures—particularly hemoglobin and melanin—are heated and selectively targeted, allowing for effective treatment without causing significant damage to the surrounding tissue.
A common area of application is the treatment of couperose and rosacea. During the procedure, dilated superficial vessels are coagulated by the light energy and subsequently broken down by the body’s natural processes. This leads to a visible reduction in redness and an overall more even skin texture.
Another key application is permanent hair removal. The light is absorbed by the melanin in the hair and converted into heat, which damages the hair follicle. Several sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, are necessary since the treatment is only effective on hair in the active growth phase.
IPL treatments are generally gentle, minimally invasive, and involve minimal downtime, making them a popular choice in aesthetic practices. However, careful patient screening and the individual adjustment of treatment parameters are crucial for achieving optimal results and safety.
