Pico Laser: Effective Treatment for Pigmentation and Blemishes



What Defines Good Skin?

The definition of good skin varies from person to person, but one common standard is "flawlessness." No matter how smooth your skin texture is, if you have pigmentation or blemishes, it may not appear as healthy or vibrant.

Today, let’s dive into one of the essential treatments for pigmentation and blemish care: Pico laser.



What is Pico Laser?

"Pico" refers to an extremely short time unit, and PicoSure is a laser treatment with an exceptionally short laser pulse duration. But why is this short pulse duration important?

The short pulse duration means the laser emits high peak power in a brief period.

To put it simply, PicoSure works like a "sniper rifle" targeting pigmentation. This precise laser focuses strong energy on the targeted pigmentation without damaging the surrounding tissues, ensuring effective and safe treatment.


Pico Laser can address four major concerns: acne scars, pigmentation treatment, wrinkle improvement, and tattoo removal.

Most skin pigmentation is caused by melanin, often appearing as brown or black spots, primarily due to sun exposure. The greatest advantage of PicoSure is its high precision and safety in pigmentation treatment, thanks to its short pulse duration.

Additionally, PicoSure offers various handpieces, allowing for the use of multiple wavelengths tailored to different skin conditions.

The treatment also minimizes the risk of skin overheating, hyperpigmentation, or hypopigmentation, resulting in a short recovery time, allowing patients to quickly return to their daily routines.


As for discomfort, PicoSure typically doesn't require anesthesia, although we do apply a numbing cream if necessary based on the patient’s sensitivity to pain. While side effects are rare, sensitive skin types may experience temporary irritation.

Recommended Treatment Schedule

We suggest undergoing Pico Toning sessions every 2-4 weeks for optimal results.

At Lab Clinic, we start every treatment with a precise diagnosis using the Visia Scanner, which helps identify underlying skin issues that may not be immediately visible.

This data-driven approach ensures personalized and accurate treatments tailored to each individual's needs. Our customized treatments are based on a thorough review of Visia Scanner results, in-depth chart assessments, and open discussions with patients.

This enables us to select the right laser type and energy level suited to each patient’s skin condition, ensuring optimal treatment response and recovery.
