The short answer

Which removal treatment do you need?

Removal treatments depend on what is being removed: tattoo ink, pigmented birthmarks, vascular marks, moles or sun spots. Pico and Q-switched lasers break up pigment and ink, V-beam treats red marks and CO2 laser removes raised moles.

At YAAN Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, each removal is priced by size and number at consultation.

Honest suitability

Match the mark to the treatment

We would rather tell you what you don't need. These are general guides; your doctor confirms suitability after examining you.

Mark → what usually helps

What we usually advise against

  • Strong heat lasers on melasma
  • Skipping daily SPF
  • Bleaching creams without supervision
  • Treating pigment on a fresh tan
  • Raised or changing moles without evaluation
How it works

Diagnosis comes first

Depth: epidermal pigment fades faster than dermal pigment.

Type: melasma behaves differently from freckles; heat can worsen it.

Skin tone: settings are adapted to reduce post-inflammatory pigmentation.
