What is PQX Pico Laser?
Pico Laser PQX is the latest model and highly powered laser developed by Fotona, one of Europe’s leading laser companies. Among the many medical pico lasers, it is characterized by its short pulse width (300Ph) and high output (2.7GW). With an irradiation time of picoseconds, which is one-tenth of nanoseconds, it can approach melasma, age spots, freckles, pigmentation, and pores without putting any strain on the skin, and delivers laser light deep into the skin.

Toning
(one area: face, elbows, knees, buttocks, sensitive zone)
Each area is irradiated with a low-power pico laser to crush melanin particles within the cells of the epidermal layer and promote skin turnover. There is almost no pain or downtime, and it evens out uneven skin tone, leading to a one-tone brighter complexion.
Spot (spot removal)
Pico laser is used to irradiate pigmented areas such as freckles, age spots, and birthmarks in spots, and efficiently performs pigment treatment while minimizing side effects such as post-symptomatic hyperpigmentation. Recommended for those who want to treat fundamental spots with one or 2 irradiation sessions.

About downtime and precautions
- Treatment time
- Approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour
- Side effects/ downtime
-
After the treatment, you may experience
some redness or stinging, but it subsides in
about 2 to 3 hours for most people.
This may cause temporary acne.
(*There are individual differences) After spot (spot removal) irradiation, a scab will form in about 3 to 5 days, temporarily darken the color, and peel off in about 1 to 2 weeks. After the scab falls off, the color will become lighter in about 3 to 6 months.
- Face wash/bathing/ make-up
- All of this is possible from the day of your treatment.
- Aftercare
-
After the treatment, your skin will be more
susceptible to UV rays and will be more
susceptible to spots. Be sure to take active
care of UV rays and keep yourself well
moisturized.
If you have had spot treatment, please apply tape to the treated area for about a week. (If it starts to scab, apply sunscreen.)
