Understanding Skin Concerns Addressed by Picosecond Laser Treatment
Picolaser is short for “picosecond laser”, which refers to pigment lasers which fire an extremely quick burst of light measured in trillionths of a second. This small and intense burst of energy allows the targeting of microscopic pigment particles in the skin- melanin (skin pigment), hemoglobin (blood pigment) or tattoo ink, while sparing the normal skin- known as selective photothermolysis. The target pigment rapidly heats up and shatters into fine particles which are then cleared by the scavenger cells of the skin. Using special settings, picosecond laser can generate areas of Light Induced Optical Breakdown (LIOBs) in the skin- numerous microscopic controlled wounds that stimulates skin regeneration. The end result is removal of unwanted skin pigmentation and skin rejuvenation.

Understanding Skin Concerns Addressed by Picosecond Laser Treatment
Picosecond pulsed laser is US FDA approved for the treatment of pigmentary disorders (freckles, lentigo, sun spots, age spots, melasma, Naevus of Hori, Naevus of Ota), tattoo removal and skin revitalisation (fine lines, pores and acne scars). In the local context, unwanted pigmentation is the most common indication for Picosecond laser treatments. The tropical climate with high UV index gives rise to a high incidence of pigmentary disorders in the population. Pigmentation is considered undesirable, with Asian beauty standards putting emphasis on clear skin.
Skin rejuvenation- the revitalisation of sun damaged and aged skin, is another common request. As part of the normal aging process, skin loses collagen and hydration and develops fine lines and wrinkles. This can be treated with Picosecond- the picolaser stimulates the skin to produce new collagen, resulting in younger looking and firmer skin with improvements in the signs of aging. Acne, acne scars and open pores are common especially amongst younger patients. Picosecond’s focus lens treatment is effective and resurfacing the skin to reduce the surface irregularities.
