Laser Treatments Somerville, NJ
Laser treatments are aesthetic procedures involving using a specific wavelength of laser energy to target the chromophores in the skin, hair follicles, or tattoo pigments, without any surgical interventions. Selective photothermolysis is the basis of laser treatments, in which a specific wavelength of light is absorbed by a target chromophore (such as melanopsin) more readily than other chromophores (such as blood and tissue), enabling the delivery of controlled thermal energy while minimizing damage to nearby tissues. The object being treated can be melanin, hemoglobin, water, tattoo ink, or follicular pigment, depending on the laser and treatment goal.
Enfield Royal Clinic in Branchburg, NJ, offers customized laser services near Somerville, NJ, such as laser skin rejuvenation, laser hair removal, and laser tattoo removal. Laser skin rejuvenation induces collagen remodeling and enhances photodamaged skin; laser hair removal breaks melanin in the hair shaft and follicle, which enhances hair reduction; laser tattoo removal breaks the tattoo pigment into smaller particles, which gradually be cleared by the immune system.We proudly serve patients in Somerville, about 7 miles from our Branchburg clinic (~12 min drive) via US-22, with US-206 as an alternate route.

How Laser Treatments Work?
- Laser Skin Rejuvenation: Laser skin rejuvenation involves controlled light energy to improve the damaged or irregular skin, and stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Laser resurfacing accomplishes either of these objectives, depending on the technology: removal of controlled amounts of epidermal tissue, or delivery of thermal energy into the dermis without significant surface ablation. Controlled thermal injury encourages new collagen (neocollagenesis) and encourages dermal remodeling.
- Laser Hair Removal: Laser Hair Removal is based on the concept of selective photothermolysis, which is the ability to focus on melanin in the hair shaft and in the follicular structures. The light energy absorbed is converted into heat, which causes controlled thermal injury to the hair follicle, without exposing adjacent tissue.According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, patients need about 4 to 6 laser hair removal treatments, depending on their hair color, density, skin type, treatment area, and response to the treatment.
- Laser Tattoo Removal: Laser tattoo removal uses certain wavelengths of laser energy able to target tattoo pigments located within the dermis. The main chromophore is tattoo ink, which absorbs the laser energy and subsequently fragments through photothermal and photomechanical processes. The laser is used to fragment larger pigment particles into smaller fragments. These fragments can be gradually cleared from the body by physiological mechanisms. Many pigments absorb different wavelengths, so the tattoo color is a crucial factor. Black and dark-blue pigments tend to be more receptive to laser treatment, while some green, yellow, white, and flesh-colored pigments require more attention.
Laser Treatment Options Available near Somerville at Enfield Royal Clinic Branchburg, NJ
- Laser Skin Rejuvenation: Laser skin rejuvenation near Somerville, NJ enhances the skin appearance without surgical intervention, for visible signs of ageing, sun damage, and skin irregularities. The treatment is directed at the epidermis, the dermis, or both kinds of tissues to promote controlled tissue remodeling, depending on the laser technology. Some of the frequent problems are fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, photodamage, hyperpigmentation, skin unevenness, enlarged pores, and dull skin. Laser technology includes two types of laser resurfacing: Ablative and Non-Ablative.
- Laser Hair Removal: Laser Hair Removal near Somerville, NJ, eliminate unwanted facial and body hair by concentrating on the melanin in the follicle. The wavelength of the laser is chosen depending on the patient’s skin and hair nature, to allow preferential absorption of the energy by the desired target.Laser Hair removal facilitates patients suffering from pseudofolliculitis barbae (PFB) or “razor bumps”. PFB results from shaving or plucking hairs, which bend back into the skin and lead to inflammation and papules. Hair follicles go through a growth cycle, a series of treatments is required, rather than all at once.
- Laser Tattoo Removal: Laser tattoo removal near Somerville, NJ removes any tattoo pigment that lies underneath the skin. Different colors of ink absorb different wavelengths of the laser light, so the laser wavelength is chosen based on the ink’s characteristics. Generally, these treatments are more spaced out, several weeks apart, to allow skin to recover and pigment to clear. It is beneficial for any unwanted, faded, old, amateur, professional, permanent, cosmetic,or multicolored tattoos.

Faqs
Laser hair removal provides permanent hair loss but does not provide a permanent assurance that all strands of hair will be removed. Its purpose is to kill hair follicles by converting light energy emitted to heat through the melanin present in the hair follicles.
Laser therapy is uncomfortable. In case of laser hair removal, the patient usually describes pulses as feeling a warm pricking sensation on the skin or a rubber band snapping on the skin.
Laser therapy may not suit all patients; therefore, it is recommended that patients consult a doctor first if he/she is having skin infection, open wound, inflammatory skin conditions, significant tanning of the skin in recent times, or a condition of abnormal scarring or change in skin color.
Melasma is treated using laser treatment in some people, but there is no solid evidence that melasma will be permanently removed through laser therapy as it is a chronic disease of melanin production. Some lasers might trigger post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation in susceptible skin types or worsen melasma.
