What is the REEPOT Laser?
REEPOT is a medical‑grade pigmentation laser system designed to target and treat a wide range of pigmented skin concerns, including sunspots, age spots (solar lentigines), freckles, and other UV‑induced pigmentations. The REEPOT system uses technology to automatically recognise, map and treat pigment at its exact depth and intensity, ensuring each lesion receives tailored energy for effective results.
This Q switch Nd:YAG laser treatment is commonly used for sun spot removal, age spot removal, and lentigines treatment in Singapore, especially for pigmentation caused by sun exposure and ageing.
How Does REEPOT Work? - The Technology Explained
The REEPOT laser combines 3 core systems.
1. Pigment Targeting (AutoDerm Technology)
REEPOT’s AutoDerm system uses real‑time imaging and artificial intelligence to detect and track pigmented lesions.
Based on data from each spot, the device automatically adjusts the laser energy delivered, higher where pigment is dense, lower where it’s superficial, instead of using uniform fixed settings.
This intelligent guidance helps to reduce the risk of over‑ or under‑treating each area.
2. Wavelength for Melanin Absorption
The laser emits light at a wavelength absorbed by melanin, the pigment responsible for brown spots.
Upon absorption, the pigment fragments are gradually cleared by the body’s immune response.
3. Variable Spot & Energy Delivery (VSLS Technology)
REEPOT’s Variable Spot Laser System allows our doctors to adjust spot size and energy parameters dynamically to suit the patient’s specific skin concern and lesion type.
This optimises energy targeting and minimises collateral thermal damage.
4. Continuous Cooling (CPTL Contact Cooling)
A sapphire‑tipped cooling system maintains a preset cooling temperature throughout the procedure.
Continuous cryocooling protects the skin surface, making the treatment comfortable, eliminating the need for topical anaesthesia.
What Skin Concerns Can REEPOT Treat?
REEPOT is indicated for safe and effective treatment of:
Sunspots & solar lentigines
Age spots
Freckles
Uneven pigmentation from UV exposure or ageing
These concerns often appear on the face, hands, forearms, and other sun‑exposed areas.
Benefits of REEPOT
Target‑specific pigment removal with AI‑guided energy modulation.
Comfortable with continuous contact cooling.
Minimal downtime.
Flexible treatment modes for varied clinical presentations.
Suitable for patients seeking clear, even‑toned skin
What to Expect During & After Treatment
Patients often experience:
Mild warm sensation at treated spots.
Temporary darkening of treated brown spots before they lighten or flake off.
Minimal redness or swelling that subsides within a few hours to days.
Post-Treatment Care & Healing Process
Immediately after treatment, a hydrocolloid protective dressing will be applied over the treated areas.
This dressing helps to protect the skin, support healing, and reduce the risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation.
The patch is typically kept on for 1–2 weeks, depending on the treated area and skin response.
You will be scheduled for a doctor’s review, where the dressing will be safely removed and healing progress assessed.
During this period:
Avoid picking, rubbing, or prematurely removing the dressing.
Sun protection is essential to prevent recurrence or worsening pigmentation.
Proper aftercare is important to support results from sun spot removal and prevent the recurrence of pigmentation.
Who Is This Suitable For?
If you’ve been struggling with stubborn pigmentation or find that your pigment keeps recurring, REEPOT may offer a targeted and effective solution due to its ability to differentiate pigment depth and adjust energy delivery accordingly.
That said, not all pigmentation behaves the same way. To determine if this treatment is suitable for you, a personalised consultation is required, where your skin can be properly assessed and a tailored treatment plan recommended.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser?
A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is a medical laser commonly used for pigmentation concerns. It delivers short pulses of energy that target melanin in the skin, helping to break down pigment such as sun spots, age spots and freckles.
Is the Q-switched laser painful?
Patients may feel a mild warm or tingling sensation during treatment. With contact cooling technology, the procedure is generally well-tolerated without the need for anaesthesia.
How does Q-switched laser remove sun spots and age spots?
The laser energy is absorbed by pigment in the skin, breaking it down into smaller particles. These fragments are then gradually cleared by the body, which may help improve the appearance of sun spots and age spots over time.
Is there any downtime after the treatment?
Q-switched laser is generally associated with minimal downtime. Some patients may experience mild redness or slight darkening of treated spots, which typically resolves within hours to a few days
Can pigmentation or sun spots come back after treatment?
Pigmentation such as sun spots may recur, especially with continued sun exposure. Maintenance treatments and consistent sun protection are important to help maintain results.
Is the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser safe for all skin types?
Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is generally suitable for a wide range of skin types as it targets pigment while minimising damage to surrounding tissue. A consultation is recommended to assess individual suitability.
