Helios with Maya: Specialized treatment for blemishes, tattoos and pigmentation
Skin blemishes, freckles, acne scars and especially unwanted tattoos can affect the beauty and evenness of the skin and reduce self-confidence. These problems are often resistant to superficial treatments and require a specialized and powerful solution. The Helios laser is an advanced Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser system that is specially designed to target and eliminate all types of pigmentation. At Maya Beauty Clinic, we use this precise technology to restore clarity and evenness to your skin.
What is the Helios laser and how does it work?
The Helios laser focuses on pigmented areas (such as brown spots or tattoo ink) by sending very short, high-energy laser pulses. The mechanism of action of this laser is very precise and effective:
-Photoacoustic effect: Helios laser pulses hit the skin within a few nanoseconds. This energy is absorbed by the pigments and causes them to break into very small particles. This process is known as the photoacoustic effect.
-Natural elimination of particles: The broken particles are so small that they are easily recognized by the body’s defense system and eliminated through the lymphatic system.
Due to its very high speed and precision of action, this process does not damage the surrounding tissues and is therefore a safe and effective method for removing unwanted pigments.
Why Helios treatment at Maya Clinic?
For a successful treatment, choosing the right clinic and specialist is essential. At Maya Clinic, we are the best choice for Helios laser treatment for the following reasons:
-Advanced and specialized technology: Helios laser is not a multipurpose device, but is specifically designed to target pigmentation and tattoos. This specialization allows for more precise and effective results.
-Doctors’ expertise: Helios device settings (such as wavelength and energy level) must be carefully selected for each patient and their type of pigmentation. Our doctors, with sufficient experience and knowledge, apply the best settings for your skin.
-High safety and precision: Due to ultra-short pulses, Helios laser does not damage surrounding tissues and minimizes the risk of burns or skin discoloration.
-Personalized treatment approach: Each spot and each tattoo has its own characteristics. During the consultation, our doctor designs a personalized treatment plan for you after a thorough evaluation.
Common problems that can be treated with the Helios laser
The Helios laser is effective in treating a wide range of skin pigmentation issues:
Brown Spots and Freckles: Removes sun spots, age spots, and freckles from various areas of the body.
Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation: Treats dark spots that remain after acne or other skin inflammations have healed.
Unwanted Tattoos: Helios can break down and completely remove black and colored tattoo ink in just a few sessions.
Lightens and evens out skin tone: By targeting excess melanin, this laser can even out skin tone and make it appear clearer.
Comparing Helios with other lasers
The Helios laser has an advantage over other lasers for treating pigmentation and tattoos due to its Q-Switched technology:
Comparison with non-Q-Switched lasers: Older lasers destroyed pigments by creating heat in the skin, which was associated with the risk of burns and damage to surrounding tissues. However, the Helios, with its very short pulses, avoids the thermal effect and only affects the pigment.
Comparison with IPL: IPL (intense pulsed light) is effective for treating superficial spots and redness, but is not powerful enough for deeper spots and tattoos. The Helios penetrates deeper layers of the skin, providing more lasting and complete results.
Treatment process at Maya Clinic: Step by step to recovery
Your Helios Laser treatment process at Maya Clinic is quick and easy:

Treatment: Your doctor will move the handpiece of the device over your skin, sending laser pulses to the targeted areas. This process usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.
After Treatment: After treatment, it is normal to have some redness or darkening in the treated area and this will subside over time.
