Laser Pigment Correction with Spectra®
The Spectra® platform uses ultra-short nanosecond pulses (as short as ~5 ns) at dual wavelengths (1064nm and 532nm) to safely and effectively target pigmented cells. The laser energy is absorbed by melanin (pigment) in the skin, causing it to fragment into smaller particles that the body’s natural processes can then clear away.
In addition, the device’s special mode (“Spectra mode” or “Hollywood Laser Peel®”) enables controlled heating of the skin, which stimulates collagen production and improves tone and texture benefiting overall complexion, not just pigment spots.
FDA Clearance: Spectra is the first short-pulse laser to earn US FDA clearance for the treatment of melasma, a challenging pigmentation disorder.

Laser Pigment Correction with Clarity II
Pigment Correction works through three filters and concentrates the light within a narrow range. Here’s how our Clarity II treatment uses advanced laser technology to treat your skin issues:
- During the procedure, controlled waves of pulsed light energy are delivered deep within your skin tissue to damage the vessels or pigmented spots.
- The resulting heat causes the blood to coagulate and the veins to collapse. Over time, your body’s lymphatic system gradually removes the destroyed pigment or collapsed vessels.
- The wavelengths only target the melanin in pigmented lesions or blood vessels; the surrounding skin remains intact, allowing minimal discomfort and less downtime.
What to Expect During Your Treatment?
Personalized consultation: At MarSha MedSpa, our skincare specialists will begin by assessing your skin to determine the most suitable approach to treatment.
Preparation for treatment: Once your condition, concerns, and skin sensitivity have been identified, we will cleanse your skin and place goggles over your eyes to protect the area during treatment.
Treatment session: We will then apply a transparent cooling gel to the target area before beginning work on your skin. As the light energy penetrates the dermal layers, you may feel a slight burning sensation, but simultaneous blasts of Cryo will help cool immediately.
Duration: The pigment correction procedure takes approximately 30 minutes, depending on the extent of treatment required.
Aftercare and Recovery
- Immediate Effects: You may experience redness or swelling, which usually fades within 24 hours.
- Sensation: A slight burning or tingling feeling may persist for a few hours after treatment; ice and cold packs applied at 10-minute intervals can provide relief.
- Skin Flaking: Some skin flaking or peeling might occur within a few days, but it’s expected and not of concern.
- Sun Protection: Avoid sun exposure for at least two days.
