Laser Pigmentation Removal in New York
Clearer, More Even Skin — Powered by Candela GentleLase Pro
Uneven skin tone, dark spots, sun damage, and melasma are among the most common skin concerns — and among the most frustrating to treat with creams and serums alone. At IN·GLO Face and Body Sculpting, we offer Laser Pigmentation Removal using the Candela GentleLase Pro — one of the most advanced and trusted laser platforms for precision pigmentation correction available today.
The GentleLase Pro delivers a highly focused beam of light energy that is selectively absorbed by pigmented cells in the skin. The unwanted pigment absorbs this energy, breaks apart, and is naturally eliminated by the body over the following weeks — leaving the surrounding skin completely undamaged. The result is a visibly clearer, brighter, and more uniform complexion.
Most clients begin to notice improvement after just 2 to 3 sessions, with full results continuing to develop over the weeks and months that follow. With proper sun protection and a good skincare routine, results can last for many months to years.
Whether you’re dealing with sun spots on your face, age spots on your hands, or stubborn melasma on your cheeks — IN·GLO’s certified laser technicians will build a personalized treatment plan designed around your specific skin type and pigmentation concerns, starting with a completely free consultation.

Pigmentation Conditions We Treat
Sun Spots / Solar Lentigines
Dark, flat spots that develop on sun-exposed skin over time — most commonly on the face, hands, chest, and shoulders. One of the most straightforward and rewarding applications of laser pigmentation removal.
Age Spots
Similar to sun spots but associated with skin aging. These flat, brownish patches appear on areas repeatedly exposed to sunlight and respond excellently to targeted laser treatment.
Freckles
Whether naturally occurring or sun-induced, freckles can be lightened or removed with precision laser energy — revealing a more even, uniform skin tone.
Melasma
A common but complex condition causing larger areas of brown or gray-brown discoloration, typically on the face. Melasma requires a careful, customized approach — our technicians will assess your skin thoroughly to recommend the most effective protocol.
Hyperpigmentation
Dark marks left behind after acne breakouts, skin injuries, or inflammation. Laser treatment can accelerate the fading process and restore a more even complexion.
Uneven Skin Tone
General dullness, patchiness, or lack of clarity in the complexion — often caused by a combination of sun exposure, hormonal changes, and aging — can be dramatically improved with a targeted laser pigmentation series.
Precision Candela GentleLase Pro
The GentleLase Pro targets pigmented cells with surgical precision — breaking down discoloration without affecting the surrounding healthy skin. Trusted by dermatologists and medspa specialists worldwide.
Personalized for Your Skin Type
Pigmentation is not one-size-fits-all. Our certified technicians assess your specific skin tone, pigmentation type, and history before every treatment to design the safest and most effective approach for you.
Free Consultation Before You Begin
Every client starts with a complimentary consultation — no commitment, no pressure. We'll examine your skin, discuss your goals, and map out a clear treatment plan before your first session.
What to Expect During Your Laser Pigmentation Removal Session
During your session, your certified technician will use the Candela GentleLase Pro handpiece to deliver precise pulses of laser energy to the targeted pigmented areas. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snapping or slight warmth on the skin — the built-in Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) releases a burst of cool air before each laser pulse to maximize your comfort throughout the treatment.
Session length varies depending on the size and number of areas being treated — from as little as a few minutes for a small spot to over an hour for larger surface areas. There is no anesthesia required, and most clients return to their regular activities immediately after.
In the days following treatment, pigmented areas may temporarily appear darker before they begin to flake away naturally — this is a completely normal part of the process and a sign the treatment is working. Your technician will walk you through exactly what to expect and how to care for your skin at each stage.
FAQ About Laser Pigmentation Removal in NYC
Who is a good candidate for laser pigmentation removal?
Ideal candidates are individuals looking to reduce visible skin discoloration — including sun spots, age spots, freckles, melasma, or post-acne dark marks. The treatment is most effective on well-defined pigmented lesions. A consultation with our technicians will confirm whether laser treatment is the right approach for your specific concern and skin type.
How many sessions will I need?
Most clients see noticeable improvement after 2 to 4 sessions, though the exact number depends on the type, depth, and size of the pigmentation being treated. Melasma typically requires more sessions and a more gradual approach than sun spots or freckles. Your technician will outline a clear timeline during your free consultation.
When will I see results?
Many clients notice that treated areas begin to lighten within 1 to 2 weeks of their first session, with more significant results developing over the following weeks and months as the body eliminates the broken-down pigment. Results continue to improve with each subsequent session.
How long do results last?
With consistent sun protection and a proper skincare routine, results can last many months to years. New pigmentation can develop over time with unprotected sun exposure, which is why daily SPF is essential for maintaining results long-term.
Is there any downtime or discomfort?
There is minimal to no downtime. Most clients return to their normal activities right after treatment. Treated areas may temporarily appear slightly red, darker, or mildly swollen for a few days — this is normal and part of the healing process. Side effects are typically mild and short-lived.
What does the treatment feel like?
Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snapping or a brief burst of warmth on the skin. The Candela GentleLase Pro's built-in cooling system significantly reduces discomfort throughout the session. The procedure is generally very well tolerated with no anesthesia required.
