Pico Laser is an advanced picosecond laser treatment used in the management of pigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, and tattoo concerns. Using ultra-short laser pulses, the Pico Laser Singapore system delivers energy into the skin with extreme precision, intended to support collagen activity as part of the skin’s natural repair process with treatment settings adjusted to manage thermal exposure appropriately.
This treatment is widely used in medical aesthetics for the treatment of pigmentation, acne scars, and overall skin tone concerns. Patients often choose Pico Laser treatment to address concerns related to uneven skin tone and texture.
Over time, skin can develop pigmentation, acne marks, uneven tone, and early signs of aging due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, or genetics. Pico Laser treatment works by delivering ultrashort picosecond pulses, 100 times shorter than traditional nanosecond lasers.
This ultra-short pulse duration allows the laser to break down pigment into smaller fragments, which the body can clear more efficiently, with parameters adjusted to manage the risk of post-treatment pigmentation. At the same time, the laser is intended to support collagen activity and address concerns related to skin texture and tone.
Pico Laser can address a wide range of skin concerns on the face and body:
With Pico Laser treatment, these areas can be treated precisely to address concerns related to uneven tone and skin texture.
Pico Laser treatment is suitable for men and women experiencing pigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, dull skin, or mild laxity. It may be considered by patients who are seeking non-invasive skin rejuvenation, pigmentation removal, and collagen stimulation with downtime varying depending on individual response.
A consultation with a qualified doctor in Singapore is essential to evaluate the type of pigmentation, skin type, and overall condition. Pico Laser treatment in Singapore may be used on various skin types following clinical assessment. Patients with active infections, open wounds, or recent sunburn should postpone treatment until cleared by a doctor.
The doctor assesses the skin, type of pigmentation, and acne scarring to create a tailored treatment plan.
The area is cleansed, and topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort.
Using a 1064nm wavelength (or appropriate wavelength depending on the condition), the picosecond laser delivers ultra-short pulses to the targeted area, delivering energy to areas of pigmentation and supporting collagen activity, depending on treatment indication.
The laser is applied strategically to affected areas, such as the under-eye region, cheeks, or tattoos in accordance with clinical assessment and treatment planning.
Pigmentation may gradually lighten over time as the body naturally eliminates the fragmented pigment, while collagen remodeling may support changes in skin tone and texture over time.
Follow-up consultations monitor progress, and maintenance sessions may be scheduled to optimise long-term results.
Pico Laser treatment works using precise picosecond laser energy to break down pigmentation and stimulate collagen. The procedure follows a structured approach:
Pico Laser treatment is generally well tolerated. Temporary side effects may include mild redness, swelling, or tingling in the treated area. Some patients may notice darkening or greying of existing pigmentation before it fades, which is a normal part of the healing process. Rare side effects include mild blistering or pigment changes, which are usually temporary.
Recovery from Pico Laser varies between individuals. Many individuals are able to resume routine activities shortly after treatment. Patients are advised to avoid prolonged sun exposure for at least a week and use broad-spectrum sunscreen to prevent new pigmentation. Creams may be prescribed to enhance healing and reduce pigmentation risk. Over several weeks, treated areas show visible improvements as the skin clears pigment and collagen remodeling progresses, with changes in skin appearance varying between individuals.
Pico Laser can help improve:
Provides a subtle yet noticeable lift for a youthful appearance.
Enhances jawline and cheek definition naturally.
Softens fine lines and rejuvenates skin instantly.
