    Understanding Skin Concerns Addressed by Picosecond Laser Treatment

    Author:baishilf Time:2025-02-26 17:54:03

    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. Bestview Laser is a China picosecond laser 1064nm machine manufacturer, we have picosecond laser tattoo removal machine for sale.

    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.

     

    Preparing for a Picosecond Laser Treatment

     

    During the consultation, the doctor will typically assess the skin to come to a diagnosis. The patient’s past medical history and previous aesthetic treatments will be reviewed. A treatment plan is discussed and the risks and benefits of the treatment explained. Contraindications to laser treatment include active skin diseases, open wounds, burns, photosensitivity, recent sun tan and certain medications. After picosecond laser treatment, skincare may need to be adjusted with the temporary cessation of actives such as retinols or acids. Potential side effects of picosecond laser treatment include: pigmentation flare up, hypopigmentation, burns, infection and herpes reactivation. An experienced doctor will minimize such risks with the use of appropriate laser settings and post laser skincare. After a Picosecond treatment, the skin is red and sensitive for 2-3 days. Light makeup can be applied and clients can resume work and indoor activities right away.  

     

    Post-Treatment Care and Aftercare

     

    Right after the treatment, clients are recommended to moisturize the skin and apply sunblock if going out. Skincare actives which may cause irritation such as Vitamin C, Retinols and Alpha/Beta hydroxyl acids should be stopped for 5-7 days. Clients are recommended to avoid direct sun exposure for 1-2 weeks, especially if being treated for pigmentation. Treatment intervals are once a month, with most clients reaching their desired goals within 4-8 sessions. Thereafter, maintenance treatments can be performed every 2-3 months.

    Expected Results and Long-Term Benefits

     

    Treatment intervals are once a month, with most clients reaching their desired goals within 4-6 sessions. Thereafter, maintenance treatments can be performed every 2 months. Certain skin concerns such as Melasma or Acne scars are known to be more difficult to treat may require more sessions of Picosecond laser- this will be discussed during the consultation. Results are long lasting- clients report improvement that lasts for over 12 months. For tattoo removal or acne scar resurfacing- results are permanent. In the case of pigmentation (especially melasma), there is a risk of new pigmentations developing due to sun exposure.

     

    Comparing Picosecond Laser Treatment with Other Laser Treatments

     

    Picosecond lasers are viewed as an upgrade from the older generation of nanosecond pigment lasers “Q Switch lasers”- with pulse durations measured in picoseconds (a trillionth of a second) versus nanoseconds (a billionth of a second). The extremely short pulse width allows for the laser energy to be converted directly into mechanical energy (“photoacoustic effect”), shattering the targeted pigment into fine dust like particles which can be cleared by skin cells efficiently.

     

    Picolasers and ablative lasers such as fractional CO2 or Erbium Yag lasers are used for resurfacing of acne scars. Ablative lasers destroy parts of the skin, which heals over over a period of weeks- while the results are good, it comes with high downtime and high risk of complications such as hyperpigmentation or skin infection. Picolasers are able to achieve resurfacing of the skin with lower risks of complication.

     

    Choosing the Right Clinic for Picosecond laser Treatment

     

    Laser treatments are both a science and an art, experienced laser medicine practitioners have developed skill sets that can maximise patient outcomes while minimising risks. Mass market clinics advertising cheap deals often hire inexperienced staff who may not have the understanding required to deliver optimal results- possibly resulting in more treatment sessions required to achieve the desired outcome. The quality of the laser equipment used plays an important role- quality clinics often choose to work with equipment that is supported by clinical studies and have received US FDA approval. Treating pigmentation is a marathon and not a sprint, work with a trusted doctor and reputable skin care clinic to achieve your goals.

     

    Side Effects After Piocsecond Laser

     

    *Pain, tenderness, and a burning sensation can be alleviated with a cold compress or pain relievers as prescribed by your doctor. These symptoms usually subside within 24 hours.

    *Swelling may occur, particularly in cases where the treatment involves wounds or tattoo removal, and typically subsides within 2-3 days.

    *Temporary redness may occur, usually disappearing within 2-3 hours.

    *Darkening of the skin may occur in the treated area, which usually fades within 2-6 months, commonly seen in patients with darker skin tones. This can worsen with exposure to direct sunlight.

    *Skin lightening can occur, particularly in areas that have undergone multiple treatments or due to the skin’s response to laser light. This fading typically resolves but may take several months or become permanent, though rare.

    *Scarring is rare but may occur in cases of severe skin trauma or infection.

    *Infection may arise from improper wound care or lack of cleanliness. Proper antibiotic use and wound care can reduce the risk of infection.

    *Allergic reactions may occur, such as an allergic response to tattoo removal laser light or to topical antibiotics used on sensitive skin.
