Treatment Overview
Flawless Skin Dual Toning is a dual-wavelength Q-switched Nd:YAG laser program offered in Korean dermatology clinics to correct pigmentation, redness, dullness, and uneven tone, while enhancing skin clarity and smoothness. Using 532 nm + 1064 nm dual wavelengths, the treatment works on two levels: the 532 nm beam targets freckles, surface spots, and redness, while the 1064 nm beam penetrates deeper to treat melasma, PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation), and dermal pigmentation.
Unlike single-wavelength lasers, Dual Toning provides comprehensive skin refinement, making it one of Korea’s signature treatments for achieving a “flawless skin” effect. Dermatologists often combine it with Pico laser, IPL, exosomes, PN, or PRP boosters for enhanced glow, faster recovery, and prevention of pigment recurrence.
