For those with sun spots: Broad Band Light (BBL) 
“This is not a true laser. It is a type of IPL that uses a broad spectrum of light that is great for helping with sun spots, amongst other things” says Dr Mahto. It doesn’t require numbing cream but ultrasound gel is applied to the area before the device is fired. “It’s a very good option for those with freckling, sun damage and sun spots and can be used on any part of the body”. There is minimal recovery time with BBL, but some may experience 24-48 hours of redness, but this is easily covered with makeup, if desired. “BBL is superior to traditional IPL devices as it is far more precise, allowing for better customisation of treatments to address specific skin concerns such as sun spots. Additionally, BBL has been shown to stimulate collagen production leading to improved skin texture and overall skin rejuvenation”  
For heavily sun-damaged skin: Halo - hybrid laser (both fractional ablative and non-ablative)
If you have cumulative sun damage that has occurred over many years, then it might be worth considering the Halo laser. The recovery period is usually 5 days (7 if deep settings are used). “The hybrid Halo laser offers the unique advantage of combining both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths in a single treatment” explains Dr Mahto. “Ablative wavelengths remove thin layers of skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process, while non-ablative wavelengths stimulate collagen production without damaging the skin’s surface. This allows for more effective skin rejuvenation, addressing various concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage and uneven texture”. The hybrid Halo laser delivers controlled thermal energy to targeted skin layers, creating micro-injuries that stimulate collagen remodelling and skin renewal. The process promotes skin healing and leads to improved texture, tone and overall skin appearance, making it perfect for those who have overindulged in the sun. 
Dr Mahto shared her excitement about the launch: "As summer comes to an end, it's crucial to address the impact of sun exposure on our skin. With our advanced laser technology, we can now effectively treat a range of concerns and help our patients achieve skin that radiates health and confidence."
 
*The skin consists of three primary layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. The epidermis, the outermost layer, is approximately 50-100 microns thick and acts as a protective barrier. Beneath it lies the dermis, around 1,000-2,000 microns thick, containing collagen, blood vessels, and nerves that support the skin's structure. Deeper still, the subcutaneous tissue is 1,000-4,000 microns thick and houses fat cells and blood vessels, regulating temperature and providing cushioning. Understanding these micron depths is essential in various dermatological treatments, such as laser therapies, which target specific skin layers to address various concerns and promote skin rejuvenation.
