Skin Care at Melbourne Dermatology - Jan Marini Pre/Post Laser Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation Management

"What we need, in my opinion, is to teach patients how to directly experience medically studied skin care, not how to invent theories about it. Cosmetics and marketing systems have failed to improve and fortify people's beauty." — David Bozsàn, Melbourne Dermatology.

A look inside the world of medically supervised skin care from the people of Melbourne Dermatology.

Jan Marini Pre/Post Laser Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation Management

Modern CO2 skin resurfacing lasers produce little to no hyperpigmentation in caucasian patients, however hyperpigmentation in people of skin types IV and V is still a frequent occurrence.

Hyperpigmentation occurs in about 90% of all type IV skins, a rate similar to chemical and mechanical resurfacing modalities.

The newer lasers do, however, reduce the incidence of hypopigmentation.

Certain technologies brought to market by Jan Marini allow us to condition the skin, pre and post laser, reducing the likelihood of hyperpigmentation.

The protocol also reduces post laser inflammation and redness.

Post Laser - Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation Prevention

No Jan Marini skin care is used for 5 to 10 days post laser resurfacing, although the skin is kept moist through occlusive dressings and ointments.

These prevent crust and scab formation during the healing phase to ensure superior uniformity of the final skin texture.

Currently vaseline, polysporin, gel sheeting and plastic wrap are all used.

After 5 to 10 days the skin will have re-epithelialized and gentle cleansing and active healing topicals applied to enhance the final outcome.

Post Laser (5-10 days after Laser Procedure)

Depending on individual response and skin type, Jan Marini Bioglycolic Lightening Gel may also be used.

After complete recovery, the Pre-Laser Protocol (outlined above) is followed to ensure not only further enhancement of the laser resurfacing procedure, but added protection against and reduction of any hyperpigmentation.
