Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You
Need to Know

Is laser treatment safe for darker skin tones?

+

Absolutely. Dr. Saud specialises in treating Fitzpatrick skin types IV–VI — the skin types most common in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. He uses technologies specifically calibrated for melanin-rich skin, such as PicoWay and carefully adjusted IPL protocols, ensuring safe, effective results without risks of hyperpigmentation or scarring.

How many sessions will I need to see results?

+

This depends on your specific condition and treatment. Most laser treatments show visible improvement after 1–3 sessions, with full results achieved over 3–6 sessions. Dr. Saud will outline a realistic timeline tailored to your individual skin concerns and goals during your consultation.

Am I a suitable candidate for treatment?

+

Most patients are good candidates for at least one of our treatment options. Suitability depends on your skin type, medical history, current medications, and specific concerns. Dr. Saud conducts a thorough assessment at every consultation to determine the safest and most effective approach for you.

How do I book a consultation with Dr. Saud?

+

The easiest way is via WhatsApp — simply tap the "Book via WhatsApp" button anywhere on this page. Our patient care team will respond promptly to confirm your appointment at Reveal Clinics, Riyadh. You can also call the clinic directly to schedule.

Is there any downtime after laser treatment?

+

Downtime varies by treatment. Procedures such as M22 IPL and PicoWay typically involve minimal to no downtime, allowing you to return to daily activities immediately. More intensive treatments like fractional CO₂ may require 5–10 days of healing. Dr. Saud provides detailed pre- and post-treatment care instructions for every procedure.

What makes Dr. Saud different from other dermatologists in Riyadh?

+

Dr. Saud holds rare dual board certifications from both Canada and the United States, trained at the internationally renowned University of British Columbia, and has undergone advanced subspecialty training in laser medicine. He personally oversees every treatment and develops individualised protocols rather than applying generic approaches.

Can melasma be permanently cured?

+

Melasma is a chronic condition influenced by hormonal and environmental factors, meaning it requires ongoing management rather than a single cure. However, with Dr. Saud's comprehensive approach — combining medical-grade topicals, laser treatments, sun protection protocols, and maintenance therapy — patients typically achieve excellent long-term control and dramatically improved skin appearance.
