PICO Genesis FX™ Laser Treatment
PICO Genesis FX™ laser treatment is an advanced skin resurfacing option powered by the Enlighten® III platform. It is designed to improve the appearance of skin texture, acne scarring, and overall skin quality without the extended downtime often associated with more aggressive procedures. Using ultra-short, high-energy pulses in a precise fractional pattern, the treatment creates controlled micro-injuries that support natural skin renewal and gradual refinement.
Unlike traditional ablative lasers that rely heavily on heat, this fractional picosecond technology uses a photomechanical approach to target concerns more precisely. This allows providers to improve textural irregularities while limiting unnecessary impact on surrounding tissue. As a result, many patients choose this treatment for meaningful skin improvement with a shorter recovery period compared to older resurfacing methods. Outcomes vary based on individual skin condition, scar depth, and the personalized treatment plan.
PICO Genesis FX™ is commonly used to address uneven texture, post-acne marks, enlarged pores, and skin that appears less smooth or firm. The flexibility of the Enlighten® III system allows providers to customize treatment settings based on each patient’s unique skin profile and goals. Because no two cases of scarring or texture are the same, this level of personalization helps guide both energy delivery and the number of sessions recommended.

FAQs
PICO Genesis FX™ may be appropriate for individuals who want to improve the appearance of visible skin texture, acne scars, or pores without surgery. A consultation is the best way to determine whether this option is suitable for the patient’s skin type and treatment goals.
Results from PICO Genesis FX™ laser treatment usually develop gradually as the skin renews itself. Some patients notice early visible improvement after initial sessions, while additional changes may continue to appear as healing progresses.
The number of sessions varies depending on the severity of textural concerns, the depth of acne scarring, and the individual treatment plan. Many patients benefit from a series of sessions for more complete improvement.
This laser treatment may involve temporary redness, swelling, dryness, or sensitivity after a session. These effects are often short-term, but recovery time can vary depending on the intensity of treatment and the individual’s skin response.
Before and after treatment, patients should follow all instructions provided by the office. This often includes limiting unnecessary sun exposure, using gentle skincare, and protecting the skin during the recovery period.
During the session, the provider delivers controlled laser energy in a fractional pattern to the targeted area. Patients may feel warmth or mild discomfort, and the session length depends on the size and condition of the treatment area.
