Laser toning is a gentle treatment that passes low-energy laser pulses evenly across the skin to break up excess pigment gradually. It is widely used in Korea for melasma, uneven tone and dull skin because it has little downtime. At Louave in Cheongdam, Gangnam, toning is planned by a board-certified dermatologist, often as a series combined with skin care.
