What is picosecond laser treatment for melasma like?
PicoWay brand picosecond lasers, a technological innovation initially developed for tattoo removal, also include protocols for treating pigmentation concerns such as melasma.
They destroy the brown pigment of melasma using the same mechanism with which tattoo ink particles are fragmented. Progressively, over several sessions, the skin is left without dark patches or with more faded pigmentation and a more even tone.
