755nm Pico Laser Treatment for Lenticula

Blackout removal

Lentigo Removal


Lentils are brown spots with distinct boundaries. They commonly appear on the face and the backs of the hands that have been exposed to sunlight for a long time, and their number increases and color darkens with age.

755nm pico laserIt emits wavelengths that are well absorbed by melanin as short pulses in units of one trillionth of a second. It irradiates each spot individually to break down the pigment into small pieces, and the broken-down pigment falls off as a scab or is absorbed and eliminated by the body.

It is recommended for those whose brown spots have increased one by one, or for those whose dark spots do not fade even after receiving toning.

Why 755nm Pico

Black is pigment
It is a cluster of spots in one place.

Unlike widely spreading melasma
You can treat only the spots.

Point 1

In the area exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long time
It occurs due to an accumulation of melanin.

Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays causes pigment cells at the very bottom of the epidermis to increase and produce a large amount of melanin. When this melanin accumulates in one place, it forms brown spots with distinct boundaries. Unlike melasma, these spots do not spread widely and gradually grow larger and darker over time.

  • Formed on the face and back of the hand after prolonged exposure to sunlight
  • Brown spots with distinct boundaries
  • It grows larger and darker over time

absorption High melanin absorption Low hemoglobin absorption hemoglobin 755nm wavelength

Point 2

755nm is well absorbed by melanin and
It is less absorbed into the blood vessels.

Lasers absorb different substances depending on their wavelength. 755nm is a wavelength that is highly absorbed by melanin and low by hemoglobin in the blood. The energy is concentrated on brown spots, while having minimal impact on surrounding blood vessels and skin.

  • Wavelength

    755nm

    It is a near-infrared wavelength with high melanin absorption.

  • Picosecond

    picosecond pulse

    It emits energy in units of one trillionth of a second.

  • Spot

    Spot unit investigation

    We irradiate only the lesion according to the size of the spot.

Point 3

Short pulses are better than heat
It breaks the pigment with impact.

The shorter the pulse, the more energy delivery is completed before heat spreads to the surroundings. Because picosecond pulses are shorter than conventional nanosecond lasers, they break down pigments into smaller particles and reduce the heat absorbed by the surrounding skin. In Asian skin, a lower incidence of post- treatment hyperpigmentation (darkening of the skin) has been reported.

  • picosecond pulses shorter than nanoseconds
  • Break the pigment into smaller pieces
  • Less heat spreads to surrounding skin

Removal vs Toning

Surplus removal and
Pico toning

Black spot removal involves irradiating high energy to each spot, and
Pico toning evenly irradiates low energy across the entire face.

Spot investigation

Blackout removal

Lentigo Removal

  • On distinct brown spots Investigate one by one
  • The spots turned white immediately after the examination
  • Apply a thin scab and a moist wound dressing for 2 weeks.
  • If residual pigmentation remains, additional treatment after 4 weeks.

Pico toning

Pico Toning

  • with low energy Investigation of the entire face
  • melasma, light blemishes, dull skin tone
  • Go straight back to normal life without a ticket
  • Perform multiple sessions at intervals of 2-4 weeks

We do not use dark spot removal energy on melasma.
melasma can darken if subjected to strong irritation. For skin with a mixture of dark spots and melasma, only the dark spots are selectively removed, while melasma is treated separately with toning.

After Treatment

Post- treatment progress

After removing dark spots, the skin recovers in this order.

  1. Immediately after the treatment

    The spot turns white and soon darkens to a grayish-brown. Apply a moist wound dressing and go home.

  2. 1-3 days

    A thin, dark scab forms at the spot. Do not remove the bandage.

  3. 2 weeks (band removed)

    The scab falls off, and the spot remains pink for a while.

  4. After 2-4 weeks

    Some people may experience post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, where the color appears darker again. In most cases, it fades within a few months.

Even the same treatment has different processes.

Notice

Post- treatment precautions

  • 1

    It is recommended to avoid touching the treatment area immediately after the treatment (0-4 hours). Additional irritation may worsen redness.

  • 2

    Please avoid saunas, steam rooms, hot baths, strong massages, and skin care for 2-3 days after the treatment.

  • 3

    After the treatment, there may be redness, swelling, burning sensation, and dryness, but these usually improve within a few days.

  • 4

    Please avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise on the day of the treatment (for 24 hours). Redness or swelling may last longer.

  • 5

    Please keep the Duoderm on for 2 weeks, and make sure to take care of sun protection.

  • 6

    If the Duoderm seems like it might fall off, please apply an additional layer wider than before to maintain it.

  • 7

    Do not forcibly remove scabs. This may cause scarring or hyperpigmentation.

  • 8

    The speed of recovery may vary depending on initial care, so please be sure to visit the clinic two weeks after the treatment.
