Picosecond Laser Toning
Picosecond pulses for brightening and skin quality
About This Treatment
Picosecond laser toning uses 532/1064nm at low energy in multi-pass approach for melasma/dullness while simultaneously improving skin texture. Photoacoustic effect minimizes thermal damage versus nanosecond lasers. Efficiently removes surface melanin while stimulating dermal collagen remodeling.
Mechanism of Action
Picosecond pulses (10-100ps) absorbed by melanin create photoacoustic pressure waves, shattering pigment to nano-particles for efficient macrophage clearance. Fractional mode creates sub-epidermal LIOB cavities stimulating dermal collagen neogenesis.
Indications
Expected Results
4-6 sessions for significant brightening. Skin texture peaks at 3-6 months. Toning effect noticeable after 1-2 treatments with cumulative improvement.
Clinical Evidence
Risks & Side Effects
Transient redness (hours), mild warmth. Rare PIH. Proper energy settings crucial.
