This Q–switch Laser treatment is effective in treating freckles, sun spots, age spots, acne marks & melasma. It also gives hair, especially facial hair, a bleached effect.
Besides, what is the Q switch in the laser?
Q switching is a technique for obtaining energetic short (but not ultrashort) pulses from a laser by modulating the intracavity losses and thus the Q factor of the laser resonator. The technique is mainly applied for the generation of nanosecond pulses of high energy and peak power with solid-state bulk lasers.
Also, is PicoSure better than Q switch?
Picosure Laser vs Q Switch Nanosecond
Well different studies have concluded different things. Some have shown that picosecond lasers break down ink more effectively. For example this study found that 12 out of 16 patients who took part in the trial had better clearance with a picosecond laser than a nanosecond.
How often can I do Q switch laser?
every 3-4 weeks
What happens after Q switch laser?
When you take the treatment, the skin will turn a bit grey and white for a few minutes due to absorbing the laser energy. It might happen that you get a bit of bruises if your skin has a lot of pigments. For days, your skin may even get shallow blisters to create a crusting.
What does Q switch stand for?
quality-switched laser
What is Q switching and mode locking?
Q–switched mode locking is an operation regime of a passively mode–locked laser where the intracavity pulse energy undergoes large oscillations, related to a dynamic instability (undamped relaxation oscillations).
What is passive Q switching?
Passive Q switching is an alternative technique, where the active modulator is replaced with a saturable absorber (a passive Q switch). … There are other saturable absorber crystals for other wavelengths and semiconductor saturable absorber mirrors (SESAMs) for various operation wavelengths.
Can Q switch laser remove Hemosiderin?
Yes, a Q Switched alexandrite laser or ruby laser can target and treat the hemosiderin staining.
Can you wear makeup after Q switch laser?
The best part of the Q–switched laser is that it is effective with no downtime. A mild pinkish flush might be present for about 15 mins after the laser. You can put on make-up immediately after a laser treatment and go straight back to the work.
How often can you do Q switch?
A course of 4-6 treatments of Q–Switch Laser is recommended. Intervals of 2-5 weeks between treatments will return the best results. After the initial course of treatments, touch up sessions can be utilised to maintain results in the future.
What is the best method to remove tattoos?

What is the best laser for removing tattoos?
The Nd:YAG lasers work best for red and black ink, while Alexandrite lasers work best for green and blue ink. In Dr. Avram’s experience, ps lasers are generally more effective for tattoo removal, compared with nanosecond lasers.
What is the most advanced laser for tattoo removal?
