TREATMENT FLEK SESUAI BUDGET KAMU!

Summary

In this video, Dr. Alice discusses various treatments for pigmentation issues, tailored to different budgets. From affordable glycolic acid peels for basic pigmentation to advanced micro-needling, laser treatments, and even stem cell therapy for stubborn melasma, she covers a range of options. Viewers learn about the causes of skin pigmentation like melasma, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation post-inflammation. Dr. Alice also highlights innovative treatments such as the Life Cell injection, Pico laser, and salmon DNA for more resistant cases, offering solutions for every budget, from under IDR 500,000 to IDR 21.8 million.

Takeaways

• 😀 Glycolic acid peeling is a cost-effective treatment for pigmentation, starting from under 500,000 IDR. It helps brighten skin by reducing dark spots and melasma.
• 😀 Melasma is commonly triggered by hormonal changes, such as pregnancy or birth control, and usually affects middle-aged to senior women.
• 😀 Other types of pigmentation include freckles (flek), dark spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (HPI) caused by acne.
• 😀 Microneedling is an effective treatment for pigmentation by creating small wounds that help deliver active ingredients like tranexamic acid and ascorbic acid to the skin.
• 😀 Exosome therapy, a newer treatment, helps inhibit melanin production by targeting the enzyme tyrosinase, leading to brighter skin.
• 😀 A treatment package for under 3 million IDR includes Pico laser, a high-end treatment that targets specific pigmentation spots, and Life Cell injections to enhance results.
• 😀 For those with a higher budget (around 3 million IDR), a four-step laser treatment combines different devices to tackle pigmentation, redness, pores, and skin tightening.
• 😀 The 'Pico Cell Booster' combines four-step laser therapy with Life Cell injections and Salmon DNA, making it suitable for more severe pigmentation concerns.
• 😀 Salmon DNA, used in combination with other treatments, works as a tyrosinase inhibitor to prevent melanin production and improve pigmentation.
• 😀 Stem cell treatments, though controversial, are available for patients with severe, resistant melasma. These treatments are more expensive and focus on skin regeneration to reduce pigmentation.

Q & A

What are the different types of pigmentation mentioned in the script?

The script mentions several types of pigmentation, including freckles (frles), melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

What is the primary cause of melasma in patients?

The primary cause of melasma is hormonal changes, often triggered by pregnancy, birth control pills, or estrogen therapy. It mostly affects women, particularly those of middle age and older.

What are some common treatments for pigmentation, and which ones are affordable?

Affordable treatments for pigmentation include glycolic acid peeling, which helps lighten dark spots, and micro-needling, which uses dermapen to inject active ingredients into the skin.

How does glycolic acid peeling work to treat pigmentation?

Glycolic acid peeling works by exfoliating the skin and helping to lighten dark spots, including freckles, melasma, and other types of pigmentation.

How does micro-needling help with pigmentation treatment?

Micro-needling involves creating small wounds in the skin to introduce active ingredients like tranexamic acid and ascorbic acid, which inhibit the production of melanin, helping to brighten the skin.

What is the role of tranexamic acid in pigmentation treatment?

Tranexamic acid is used in treatments to reduce melasma and other pigmentation by inhibiting the enzyme tirosinase, which is responsible for melanin production.

What are the benefits of a 'One Step Laser' for pigmentation treatment?

The 'One Step Laser' combines pico laser treatment, which targets specific pigmentation spots, and Life Cell injections, which contain tranexamic acid, antioxidants, and ascorbic acid to treat pigmentation and improve skin health.

How is the 'Four Step Laser' different from the 'One Step Laser'?

The 'Four Step Laser' combines multiple advanced devices, including pico laser, vascular devices, and dermaavi, to treat pigmentation, redness, large pores, and skin tightening. It involves more steps and is suited for patients with higher budgets.

What is Salmon DNA and how does it contribute to pigmentation treatment?

Salmon DNA contains PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide), which inhibits melanin production by blocking the action of tirosinase. It is effective in treating pigmentation and is used in combination with other treatments like the Four Step Laser.

What is the cost of the 'Pico Cell Booster' treatment, and what does it include?

The 'Pico Cell Booster' treatment costs 21.8 million IDR and includes the Four Step Laser, Life Cell injection (3cc), and Salmon DNA treatment, designed for patients seeking a comprehensive, high-end solution for pigmentation.
