PicoLO™ Picosecond Laser Pigment Treatment
The PicoLO™ picosecond laser offers a modern and highly effective solution for the targeted treatment of various pigmentation concerns. Thanks to its extremely short picosecond pulse duration, pigment particles can be mechanically fragmented while minimizing thermal impact on the surrounding tissue.Which Pigmentation Concerns Can Be Treated with PicoLO Laser?
- sun-induced pigmentation (solar lentigines)
- age spots
- hormonally induced pigmentation (melasma – assessed individually)
- uneven skin tone
- post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (e.g., after acne)
How Does the PicoLO Picosecond Laser Work?
The device delivers high-energy laser pulses with an ultra-short picosecond duration into the targeted layer of the skin.
Due to selective pigment targeting, the surrounding tissue is exposed to minimal heat, allowing the treatment to be performed without damaging the skin.
Advantages of PicoLO Pigment Treatment
- finer fragmentation of pigment particles
- reduced risk of overheating the skin
- faster skin regeneration
- fewer side effects and shorter recovery time
- more even skin tone
- natural skin renewal
- gradual and controlled results
Why Is PicoLO Laser Effective for Pigmentation?
Picosecond technology does not burn the pigment. Instead, it breaks pigment particles into microscopic fragments through a photomechanical effect.
These tiny fragments are then gradually removed by the body’s natural immune processes.
This mechanism is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin areas and stubborn pigmentation.
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
The number of treatments depends on several factors:
- the type of pigmentation
- its depth within the skin
- the extent of the affected area
- individual skin response
In most cases, 2–4 treatments are recommended, performed several weeks apart.
The exact treatment plan is always determined following a personal skin consultation and
assessment.
What to Expect After the Treatment
- mild redness and a warm sensation for a short period
- temporary darkening of the pigment followed by gradual fading
- strict sun protection is essential during the treatment course
Who Is PicoLO Pigment Treatment Recommended For?
- individuals bothered by visible pigmentation spots
- those looking for a gentle yet effective solution
- patients seeking natural skin renewal
- those who prefer minimal downtime
Frequently Asked Questions
Is PicoLO pigment treatment painful?
The procedure is generally well tolerated. Patients typically experience a mild tingling or snapping sensation.
How long does it take to see results?
Pigmentation fades gradually. Visible improvement usually develops over several weeks.
Can the treatment be performed in summer?
Yes, in selected cases, with strict sun protection and individual assessment.
Is picosecond laser treatment safe?
When performed according to proper professional protocols, picosecond laser treatments are safe and highly controlled procedures.
The picosecond laser breaks pigment particles into microscopic dust-like fragments, allowing the skin to naturally and efficiently eliminate them.
