What is Alex Toning?

Alex Toning is

a treatment utilizing a 755nm Alexandrite wavelength, which has a high absorption rate in melanin,

a low-energy pigment toning.

Traditional laser toning primarily uses a 1064nm wavelength,

which is relatively less stimulating and suitable for repeated treatments, but

may require many sessions or

show slower improvement in superficial pigmentation.

In contrast, Alex Toning

utilizes a 755nm wavelength with high melanin reactivity,

for conditions like blemishes, freckles, hyperpigmentation, and dull tones,

it more clearly targets pigments located closer to the skin's surface.

It is especially recommended for those who have consistently received laser toning but

still have remaining pigmentation, or

whose skin tone still appeared dull.

The advantages of Alex Toning are

that it further targets pigments that were not fully addressed by traditional laser toning

with the 755nm Alexandrite wavelength.

Additionally, during the procedure, fine facial hairs are also refined,

making the skin texture appear smoother,

and makeup applies better as an added benefit.

In summary, Kkeuthan Clinic's Alex Toning is

Pigment toning is the main focus,

and fine hair refinement is a bonus effect.

You can understand it this way.

Distinguishing Features of Kkeuthan Clinic's Alex Toning

Kkeuthan Clinic's Alex Toning is

not just a basic toning that passes the laser over the entire face once.

We assess the previous toning response, type of pigment, depth of pigment, skin tone, and even fine hair distribution,

and adjust the output and irradiation method to suit your skin condition.

Pigments that were insufficiently treated by toning are targeted more clearly,

dull tones are brightened,

and fine hairs are gently refined,

with treatment considering both skin tone and texture.

1. Targeting Pigments Insufficiently Treated by Traditional Laser Toning, Once More

Even after receiving multiple laser toning sessions,

blemishes may remain faded but still visible, or

the skin tone may still appear dull.

In such cases, rather than repeatedly using the same wavelength,

we customize the treatment according to the location and characteristics of the pigment.

It may be necessary to approach with a different wavelength.

Alex Toning uses a 755nm wavelength with high melanin reactivity to

target what was lacking with conventional 1064nm toning alone,

such as superficial pigmentation, blemishes, freckles, and hyperpigmentation, one more time.

2. Focused Melanin Targeting with 755nm Alexandrite Wavelength

The 755nm wavelength of Alex Toning

has the characteristic of reacting well to melanin.

By clearly targeting pigments close to the skin surface,

it helps to refine dull and cluttered-looking skin tone

into a clearer and cleaner complexion.

If your skin has a mix of melasma, blemishes, freckles, and hyperpigmentation,

rather than repeatedly using only one type of toning,

choosing the right wavelength for your skin condition is crucial.

3. Smooth Skin Texture by Refining Fine Hairs

Fine facial hairs can

make makeup look cakey,

make skin tone appear dull,

and make skin texture look uneven.

During the process of targeting pigmentation, Alex Toning

also refines fine hairs on the face,

offering the benefit of smoother-looking skin immediately after the procedure.

It's excellent before an important event,

when you want to refine not only blemishes and skin tone

but also improve makeup adherence.

4. Low-Output, Delicate Toning Tailored to Skin Tone and Pigmentation

The more reactive a laser is to melanin,

the greater the risk of redness, stinging, and hyperpigmentation

if applied indiscriminately with high intensity.

Keuthan Clinic assesses skin tone, pigment depth, sensitivity, and presence of redness before

applying customized treatment for each client.

While effectively targeting pigmentation,

we precisely adjust the output, pulse speed, and number of pulses

in a way that minimizes skin irritation.

5. Comprehensive Toning Addressing Pigmentation, Tone, and Texture

The reason skin can look cluttered

isn't necessarily due to just one blemish.

A combination of blemishes, freckles, hyperpigmentation, dull tone, fine hairs, and skin texture can

make the overall complexion appear dark and rough.

Alex Toning focuses on pigmentation but also

considers skin tone, fine hairs, and skin texture.

Therefore, beyond general pigment removal,

we manage your entire skin to look clearer and smoother.

Alex Toning: These are the benefits

Targets pigments that were not fully addressed by traditional laser toning with more focus

Intensive melanin management with 755nm Alexandrite wavelength

Improves blemishes, freckles, hyperpigmentation, and dull skin tone

Expect improved skin texture by tidying up fine facial hair

Expect reduced makeup creasing and improved makeup adhesion

Delicate procedure tailored to your skin tone

Recommended for skin concerned with both pigmentation and fine hair

Tone-up treatment that uniformly brightens the entire face

Suitable for skin texture refinement before important events

Recommended for those who:

Have had multiple laser toning sessions but are unsatisfied with pigment improvement

Still have faint blemishes, freckles, or hyperpigmentation

Have dull skin tone that doesn't look clear

Are looking for a different pigment toning treatment other than traditional toning

Experience makeup caking or sliding due to fine facial hair

Wish to manage both pigmentation and fine hair at once

Feel their bare skin looks untidy

Find their foundation doesn't sit well and their skin texture looks rough

Want to refine their skin tone before a wedding, photoshoot, interview, or important event

Prefer immediate fine hair tidying and pigment toning over semi-permanent hair removal

For these individuals, combining with fine hair laser removal is recommended:

Those who want to reduce facial fine hair long-term

Those who dislike fine hair growing back

Those who desire semi-permanent fine hair reduction

Those who feel fine hair is the biggest cause of makeup creasing

Those who wish to maintain the fine hair tidying effect after Alex Toning for longer

While Alex Toning can help tidy fine hair immediately after the procedure,

it is not a procedure for semi-permanent hair removal.

Therefore, if you desire long-term fine hair reduction,

we recommend receiving facial fine hair laser removal concurrently.
