Your doctor first checks whether the spot's borders are well-defined, along with its size and distribution. Reepot suits clearly-bordered lesions; if the shape is unclear or there's concern about malignancy, your doctor will recommend further evaluation first.

What you might want to know first
Process
After cleansing, each spot is treated with the laser, then a hydrocolloid dressing is applied. Total time depends on the number of spots.
Pain
You'll feel stinging during the laser treatment; sensation varies by person, and numbing can be used if needed.
Downtime
The hydrocolloid dressing stays on for about 2 weeks. You'll come back so we can remove it and check your healing; if a follow-up visit isn't possible, you can gently peel it off yourself. Avoid sun exposure during recovery.
How long it lasts
Most spots show a clear improvement once the scab from the dressing falls off. How long results last depends on your sun protection habits, and new spots can still form from sun exposure.
Actual results and sensation vary by person. Your doctor will explain what to expect for your skin at your consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are solar lentigo and age spots?
Solar lentigo are well-defined pigmented spots caused mainly by sun exposure, usually appearing on sun-exposed areas like the face and the backs of the hands. Age spots are more common after middle age, linked to aging and sun exposure, and can range from flat to raised, rough-textured growths.
What's the difference between Reepot and a general pigment laser?
Different pigment lasers are used depending on the type and depth of the lesion. Reepot is designed to precisely target well-defined pigmented lesions like age spots and solar lentigo, minimizing the effect on surrounding skin, while a general pigment laser has broader application.
Is there downtime afterward?
A hydrocolloid dressing is applied to the treated area and stays on for about 2 weeks. You'll come back so we can remove it and check your healing; if a follow-up visit isn't possible, you can gently peel it off yourself.
Can Reepot treat spots on the hands too?
Yes, it can be used on the hands as well as the face. Please confirm the specific area and extent at your consultation.
Will the spot definitely not come back?
How long results last depends on your sun protection habits, and new spots can still form from ongoing sun exposure, so daily sunscreen matters for maintaining your results.
