Pico Toning

Pico laser is a laser treatment that uses ultra-short pulses of light in the picosecond range, which is 1/1000th of a nanosecond, to target and destroy tiny particles that were previously resistant to conventional Q-switched lasers. The fragmented melanin particles, which have been broken down into smaller pieces, are then naturally absorbed and eliminated by the body. The ultra-short pulse duration of the laser allows for precise targeting and efficient pulverization of melanin without generating excessive heat, minimizing the burden on the skin. This enables the laser to penetrate deep into the skin, delivering effective treatment.

Discovery Pico, the machine that will be used.

The “Discovery Pico” is a next-generation picosecond laser that allows for irradiation with three wavelengths (532nm, 694nm, and 1064nm). It can be switched and applied according to the specific condition, resulting in minimal impact on the skin during treatment compared to conventional lasers. It is effective not only for dark and prominent pigmentation but also for lighter and more challenging pigmentation issues. It offers skin brightening effects for freckles, melasma, and other pigmentation concerns, as well as skin texture improvement and overall skin rejuvenation, including pores and acne scars.

While traditional laser treatments for pigmentation used pulses in the nanosecond range, the Discovery Pico utilizes picosecond pulses, which are even shorter, at one-thousandth of a second. This extremely short pulse duration significantly reduces heat damage, minimizes discomfort, and reduces the burden on the skin compared to conventional laser devices.

Additionally, the Discovery Pico Plus works by delivering shockwaves rather than heat energy to destroy melanin pigments. This method reduces the risk of inflammation-induced hyperpigmentation and promotes less formation of crusts or scabs since surrounding cells are less likely to be affected, targeting only the intended melanin pigments.
