Most clients see significant improvement in 3–6 sessions, spaced 3–4 weeks apart, depending on the depth and type of pigmentation.
Overview
PICO Laser is one of the most advanced and effective treatments for pigmentation concerns, offering fast, safe, and non-invasive skin rejuvenation. Whether you're struggling with sunspots, melasma, freckles, age spots, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), PICO technology targets the pigment at its root with minimal discomfort and downtime.
Unlike traditional lasers, PICO Laser works by delivering ultra-short bursts of energy (picoseconds) that shatter pigmentation into tiny particles, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.
How Pico Laser for Pigmentation Works
- PICO Laser uses a photoacoustic effect, not heat, to break down pigment particles in the skin.
- The shattered pigment is absorbed and cleared away by the body’s lymphatic system
- It also stimulates collagen production, improving skin tone, texture, and radiance.
