PICO Genesis™ laser treatment, powered by the Enlighten® III platform, is an advanced option for improving overall skin tone and visible discoloration with minimal disruption to daily routines. Using ultra-short picosecond pulses and dual wavelengths, it delivers photomechanical energy that targets unwanted pigment while supporting the skin’s natural renewal process. Unlike traditional heat-based lasers, this approach is designed to treat visible concerns more gently, which many patients prefer.
This treatment is often chosen to improve sun damage, uneven tone, and diffuse pigmentation without the extended downtime associated with more aggressive resurfacing procedures. The Enlighten® III system allows providers to customize settings based on each patient’s skin type and concerns, making it a versatile solution for brightening and refining the complexion. Because every patient’s skin is different, personalized treatment plans help determine the most effective approach and number of sessions.
PICO Genesis™ also supports smoother, clearer-looking skin over time by breaking down excess pigment into smaller particles that the body can naturally eliminate. At the same time, controlled energy delivery may stimulate skin renewal, contributing to a more even and refreshed appearance after a series of treatments.
With its lower-downtime profile and generally well-tolerated treatment experience, this laser treatment appeals to those seeking effective results without significant interruption to their routine. Individual factors, including skin condition and treatment plan, will determine specific results. Schedule a consultation today to find out if PICO Genesis™ laser treatment is the right choice for achieving a brighter, more even complexion.
PICO Genesis™ laser treatment may be appropriate for individuals who want to improve visible discoloration, uneven tone, or dull-looking skin without surgery. A consultation is recommended to determine whether this laser skin treatment is suitable based on skin type and treatment goals.
Some patients begin to notice visible improvement after the first few sessions, but results from PICO Genesis™ laser treatment usually develop gradually over time. The number of sessions needed varies by patient and the concern being treated.
The number of PICO Genesis™ laser treatment sessions depends on factors such as the type and depth of pigmentation, as well as the overall treatment plan. Many patients benefit from a sequence of treatments for a more complete improvement.
The PICO Genesis™ procedure typically involves little to no downtime. Some patients may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or sensitivity after a session, but these effects often improve within a short period.
Before and after PICO Genesis™ laser treatment, patients should limit unnecessary sun exposure and follow all care instructions provided by the office. Using sun protection and gentle skincare may support recovery.
During the procedure, the provider delivers controlled pulses of energy to the treatment area to address visible pigment and support skin renewal. Patients often describe the session as manageable, and treatment time depends on the size of the area being addressed.
