What is Pico Laser?

Pico laser uses picosecond pulses to break up pigment and stimulate skin renewal. At Louave in Cheongdam, Gangnam it is used as gentle pico toning for uneven tone, freckles and dullness, and as fractional pico treatment for pores, fine texture and post-acne marks. A board-certified dermatologist chooses the mode and settings for your skin.

How it works

How Pico Laser works

  • Freckles and sun spots
  • Dull complexion
  • Enlarged pores
  • Fine texture
  • Post-acne marks

Who it may not suit: People with a fresh tan, active infection or inflammation in the area, or who are pregnant.

Questions & Answers

Pico Laser FAQ

✦
What is the difference between pico toning and Pico Fraxel?

Pico toning spreads gentle energy evenly for tone and pigment, while fractional pico (Pico Fraxel) focuses energy into micro-zones for texture, pores and scars.

How often should I have pico toning?

Toning is usually done as a series at intervals your dermatologist recommends, often a few weeks apart.

Can I wear makeup after?

Most patients can wear gentle makeup the next day; your dermatologist will advise.

Is it suitable during a short trip?

Yes. Downtime is minimal, so a session can fit into a short stay; a series may be continued on later visits.
