Laser toning is a non-ablative treatment that uses a low-fluence Q-switched Nd:YAG laser to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin without damaging the outer layer. It targets excess melanin and stimulates collagen production, helping to fade pigmentation, smooth texture, and brighten overall skin tone.
