Pico Laser Q&A:
1. What is Pico Laser?
Pico Laser is an advanced picosecond laser technology that emits ultra-short laser pulses in the picosecond range. It fractures melanin or pigmentation spots, stimulates collagen regeneration, and is suitable for treating skin issues such as pigmentation, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone.
2. What skin issues can Pico Laser treat?
Pico Laser is effective for:
- Pigmentation (freckles, melasma, sunspots)
- Acne scars and blemishes
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone and dullness
- Fine lines
3.Is one Pico Laser treatment enough to see results?
Most people can observe noticeable improvement after 1-3 sessions, but results vary from person to person. Lightening pigmentation spots and acne scars typically require multiple sessions (usually recommended 3 to 6 treatments), with the exact number depending on individual skin conditions.
4.Does Pico Laser treatment cause pain?
There may be slight sensations of tingling or a rubber band snapping on the skin, but most people find it tolerable.
5. Will the skin be red or swollen after Pico Laser treatment? Is a recovery period needed?
After the procedure, the skin may be slightly red or warm. A small number of individuals might experience mild scabbing or peeling, which usually heals naturally within 1-3 days. You can go back to work and carry on with daily activities as usual, without any interruption.
6. What should be noted after undergoing Pico Laser treatment?
After the procedure, please pay attention to the following:
鸱Avoid sun exposure for one week; apply sunscreen when going outside
鸱Avoid hot water, boiling water, sauna, and steam
鸱Do not scratch or vigorously rub the skin
鸱Follow recommended guidelines to enhance moisturizing, sun protection, and skin repair
7.Does Pico Laser cause hyperpigmentation (darkening)? Is it safe?
Compared to traditional nanosecond lasers, Pico Laser is milder and safer, with a lower risk of hyperpigmentation. However, if sun protection is inadequate or post-treatment care is not properly followed, there is still a possibility of temporary darkening. Choosing an experienced practitioner and following proper post-care are very important!
8.Is it suitable for all skin types and ages?
Pico Laser is suitable for most skin types, but for individuals with very sensitive skin, wounds, or serious skin conditions, a professional evaluation is recommended first. Generally, treatment is suitable for those aged 18 and above.
9.How often should Pico Laser treatments be scheduled?
It is generally recommended to have treatments every 3 to 4 weeks. If the main goal is to fade pigmentation or acne scars, following a professional treatment plan will help achieve optimal results.
10.Will Pico Laser cause skin thinning?
No, it will not. Pico Laser primarily targets the dermis layer, stimulating collagen regeneration. In the long run, it can actually make the skin more refined and elastic.
11.Can I sweat after Pico Laser treatment?
It is recommended to avoid heavy sweating within 24 hours after the procedure, such as intense exercise, sauna, or hot springs, to prevent irritation of the treated skin or risk of infection. Light activities like walking are acceptable; just ensure the skin remains clean, dry and comfortable.
12. How should I care for my skin after Pico Laser treatment?
Post-treatment care is very important. It is recommended to pay attention to the following points:
鸱Enhance hydration by using gentle, non-irritating restorative moisturizer products
鸱Use high-SPF sunscreen daily (SPF 30 or above recommended)
鸱Avoid exfoliation or using products containing acids, alcohol, or other irritating ingredients
鸱Avoid sun exposure, hot compresses, sauna, and steam baths for one week
鸱Keep the skin clean and avoid rubbing or applying excessive pressure to the treated area
13.What skincare products should I use after Pico Laser treatment?
It is recommended to choose gentle, restorative, moisturizing, and soothing skincare products, while avoiding irritating ingredients. Priority options include:
鸱Alcohol-free and fragrance-free repair serums (such as Centella Asiatica, Ceramides, Panthenol)
鸱Soothing and moisturizing lotions or creams (such as hyaluronic acid, calming ingredients)
鸱Physical sunscreens (such as zinc oxide, titanium dioxide)
鸱Avoid products containing AHA, BHA, fruit acids, vitamin C, or high-concentration whitening ingredients—at least for one week.
If you are unsure which products are suitable for your skin, you can also consult with a skincare professional or beauty therapist for personalized recommendations.
14.Can I makeup after Pico Laser treatment?
It is recommended to wait at least 24 to 48 hours before applying makeup, ensuring the skin's outer layer has recovered and there is no significant redness or micro-injury. If you must wear makeup sooner, be sure to use clean tools and gentle, non-irritating makeup products. When removing makeup, do so very gently to avoid stressing the skin.
15. Who should avoid Pico Laser treatment?
The following conditions are not suitable for Pico Laser:
鸱Pregnant or breastfeeding women (safety is not fully established)
鸱Severe skin inflammation or open wounds
鸱Very sensitive skin or active skin conditions (such as eczema or rosacea)
鸱Those taking photosensitive medications or undergoing other skin treatments
鸱Individuals with a tendency to scar or keloid formation, who require special evaluation
16. What precautions should I take before Pico Laser treatment?
It is advisable to pay attention to the following points prior to the procedure:
鸱Avoid sun exposure and the use of brightening, fruit acids, or acid-containing products within one week
鸱Inform your practitioner in advance if you are taking photosensitive medications (such as antibiotics or acne treatments)
鸱It is not recommended to undergo treatment if your skin has broken, is inflamed, or affected by eczema
鸱On the day of treatment, avoid applying makeup or sunscreens; if makeup has been applied, ensure thorough removal and cleansing of the skin
17.Will there be scabbing or peeling after the procedure? Is it normal?
Some clients may experience slight scabbing, peeling, or mild redness 2-3 days after treatment. This is part of the skin’s natural healing process and is considered normal. Please remember not to pick or peel at the skin to avoid pigment spots or scars.
18. Will Pico Laser treatment reduce pore size?
Yes, Pico Laser can improve enlarged pores by stimulating collagen regeneration. However, achieving significant results typically requires multiple sessions, as a single treatment cannot completely change pore size.
19. Can Pico Laser be combined with other treatments afterward?
Yes, it is possible, but there should be sufficient intervals between treatments. Recommendations are:
鸱Moisturizing infusion / cold compress treatments: can be done immediately to help soothe the skin
鸱Chemical peel, water glow injections, microneedling: should be spaced at least 1-2 weeks apart
It is best to consult a professional beforehand to ensure safety and optimal results.
