PicoPlus (picosecond)
Ultra-short pulses photoacoustically fragment pigment with minimal collateral heat.
Why Dual Wavelength helps melasma
Melasma involves pigment at multiple depths and reactive pathways. Dual Wavelength targets both layers gently: 1927 nm refines the epidermis, while 1550 nm supports dermal remodeling and barrier balance.
- Two depths, one session: addresses superficial and deeper components.
- Gentle settings: efficacy with lower energy reduces irritation.
- Stable outcomes: protocol designed to reduce rebound risk.
How the treatment works
Fractional micro-columns create controlled zones at complementary depths. 1927 nm supports pigment dispersion in the epidermis; 1550 nm stimulates neocollagenesis and microvascular balance in the dermis. Together, they brighten skin, smooth texture and improve resilience with minimal downtime.
