"Out, damned spot! Out, I say!" Take the drama out of lightening endogenous and exogenous pigments. This session will examine when and how best to use pigment-targeting technologies in the treatment of discrete collections of pigment in the skin. This can include treatment of melanin-containing lesions and tattoos. Please note that there is a separate session on disorders of hyper- and hypo-pigmentation, and that session will cover melasma and PIH.
