Laser skin toning with Pico can treat

  • Age spots including liver spots 
  • Sun-induced pigmentation
  • Fine lines and wrinkles 
  • Enlarged pores
  • Pigmentation post-acne, surgery, or trauma.

 

Which skin types will benefit from picotoning lasers?

Pico laser skin treatment is particularly beneficial for individuals with darker skin tones, such as those of Asian, Middle Eastern, and Islander descent. Though Pico can be used in fair skin tones, they are less efficient.

How long does skin toning take to perform?

The Pico toning skin brightening treatment takes just about 7-10 minutes.

Does Pico laser hurt?

No, it doesn’t. Picoway, the latest in Pico lasers, is known for comfort. Picosure Pro is used when there are more wrinkles, pigmentation, and enlarged pores to treat. You may experience some redness for a few hours post-treatment, but no pain.

How many sessions are required?

To effectively address significant sun damage and pigmentation, around 2-4 sessions of the Pico toning treatment are recommended. Regular maintenance treatments, 2-4 times a year can further enhance skin vitality.

What is the recovery process after laser toning session?

Very few people may experience mild stinging from the non-invasive pico toning therapy. Skin redness may last for a few hours. When the settings go higher, you may experience tiny bumps like mild acne, induced by the air pockets in the upper layers of your skin. 

These laser-induced optical breakdowns (LIOB) are very normal and more common in darker skin tones. They will gradually settle in a few days.

What are my options if I have lighter skin?

Pico toning for pigmentation removal targets melanin, the pigmentation in skin, hence is most effective on dark skin tones. They are not very effective on lighter skin tones. Those with lighter skin tones may see better outcomes with other laser treatments, like -

  • Diode 1927
  • 1940

  • Jessner peel
  • TCA, AHA peels
