Dr. Wang Xiaoyan
After laser pigmentation removal, scabs typically fall off within 7 to 10 days, although this timeframe is not fixed. Due to individual differences in physical constitution, the extent of the laser treatment, and variations in post-treatment care, these factors can all influence the timing of scab detachment. To ensure both effectiveness and safety of the laser pigmentation removal, it is recommended to undergo treatment at a reputable hospital or professional cosmetic institution. After treatment, meticulous care of the treated area is essential. Sun protection should be diligently maintained during the recovery period, and the skin should avoid contact with water for a short time. These measures help minimize side effects. Following the doctor's instructions closely will promote natural scab shedding and support optimal skin recovery.
