Dr Chung King Lueh's MSc Aesthetic Medicine & MSc Dermatology Course Overview & Case studies
This case highlights a specialized approach to mole removal that combines clinical precision with aesthetic sensitivity.
The patient presented with a prominent, dome-shaped pigmented lesion located on the left eyebrow, featuring terminal hair growth. Pre-treatment images clearly show the mole’s elevation and pigmentation. Following CO₂ laser removal, a moderately deep wound was observed, which healed over several weeks with minimal scarring. Importantly, the hair follicles remained intact, allowing for natural hair regrowth—an indicator of precise laser targeting and careful tissue preservation.
In mole removal procedures, especially those involving CO₂ laser, the depth of laser penetration is critical. While the goal is to destroy melanocytes—the pigment-producing cells at the root of the mole—there is a significant risk of simultaneously damaging nearby hair follicles. This can result in permanent hair loss in the treated area. Obviously, reserving hair follicles is a key aesthetic consideration.
A specialized technique is required to achieve the delicate balance between effective melanocyte destruction and follicular preservation. This involves controlling the laser’s depth of penetration into the dermis and subcutis. The CO₂ laser must penetrate deep enough to eliminate melanocytes (the mole’s root) but shallow enough to avoid damaging hair follicles . This precise control of the depth of laser penetration is utmost important to achieve this balance. It is essential to discuss this aspect with your doctor to ensure optimal cosmetic and functional outcomes.
A strong academic foundation in both dermatology and aesthetic medicine (dual master’s degrees in Dermatology and Aesthetic Medicine) equips the physician with the ability to approach mole removal with a rare blend of scientific rigor and artistic judgment. This dual training informs every clinical decision—from selecting between CO₂ laser vaporization and surgical excision, to customizing suturing techniques for different facial zones to minimize scarring and preserve natural contours.
This case stands out not only for its clinical detail but also for its patient-centered approach. It reflects our guiding philosophy: mole removal is not merely the elimination of a blemish—it is a restoration of confidence, a preservation of beauty, and, most importantly, a respect for the skin’s natural architecture.

激光脫墨之前,左邊眉毛內一粒長滿毛髮的,凸出的黑色色墨痣,裡面有無法長出。
Dome-shaped pigmented mole located inside the left eyebrow, featuring terminal hair growth.
病人的左眼眉毛內有一顆隆起、呈半球狀的色素痣,表面可見粗黑毛髮。術前照片清楚顯示其形態與色素分佈。經CO₂激光脫除後,傷口呈中度凹陷,於數週內逐漸癒合,疤痕不明顯。值得注意的是,毛囊未受破壞,毛髮仍可自然再生,顯示激光定位準確,組織保留得當。
在進行CO₂激光脫墨時,控制激光深入皮膚層的深度至關重要。雖然目的是破壞痣的根源——黑色素細胞(melanocytes),但若處理不當,毛囊亦可能一併受損,導致永久性毛髮脫失。很明顯,為保持外觀自然美觀,保留毛囊在這個手術是很重要的。
因此,脫墨醫生需運用專門技術,在激光穿透真皮層與皮下組織時,精準掌握深度,達致有效去除黑色素細胞,同時保護毛囊。建議病人在接受治療前,與醫生詳細討論此技術,以確保最佳效果。
具備皮膚科與美容醫學雙碩士學歷的醫生,能以科學嚴謹與美感判斷兼備的方式進行脫墨治療。此類訓練有助醫生在選擇CO₂激光汽化或手術切除時作出精準判斷,並根據面部不同部位,量身定制縫合技術,以減少疤痕並保留自然輪廓。
本個案不僅展現臨床細節,更體現以病人為本的理念。它反映我們的信念:脫墨不只是去除皮膚上的痕跡,更是重建自信、保留美感、尊重皮膚結構的過程。
無論您是因醫療或美容原因考慮脫墨,本頁面皆為可靠起點——以科學為本、以經驗為導、以關懷為核心。
激光脫墨後,可見一個頗深的傷口
Following CO₂ laser removal, a moderately deep wound was observed
傷口於數個星期復原,疤痕不明顯。毛囊不受破壞,毛髮仍可繼續長出。
The wound healed over several weeks with minimal scarring. Importantly, the hair follicles remained intact, allowing for natural hair regrowth—an indicator of precise laser targeting and careful tissue preservation.
