Yes, Picosure skin revitalization laser is a good option for sun spots and liver spots on the face and body. Most people require 4-8 treatments. It is safe and has minimal downtime.
Thank you for your question and photo! The PicoSure laser is a great option for treating hyperpigmentation in all skin types. This laser delivers energy in a picosecond (one trillionth of a second) which allows destruction of unwanted pigment without causing damage to the surrounding tissue. The Pico also comes with attachments that help improve skin texture. I recommend a series of treatments 4-6 weeks apart for best results. You can also pretreat the area with hydroquinone cream to enhance your results. It is also important that you protect your skin from the sun to prevent the hyperpigmentation from returning. I recommend consulting with a laser specialist to determine what laser would be best and safest for your desired aesthetic outcome.Best of luck, Dr. Kian
Thank you for your question! These dark spots are best treated with the Alex-Trivanatge laser. Clear and Brilliant would never work on these type of spots. Usually only one treatment is needed to treat these spots with minimal down time. Please consult an expert in lasers to treat you. Best of luck!
Thank you for your question and posting a picture. There is no best procedure for any issue. You need to look for the best experience. Hyperpigmentation is something we see and treat every day in our practice. We have been very successful using the PicoSure laser with the FOCUS and / or Flat Lenses with a series of treatments. FOCUS lens treatments have the extra benefit of reducing fine lines and wrinkles. PicoSure has almost no downtime. This is one of our go to treatments for patients older than 40 and worried about the signs of aging. This laser is safe for all skin types. Start with sunscreen every day! Once you have treated your hyperpigmentation to your satisfaction, you will probably need a follow treatment every 6 to 12 months depending your level of re-pigmentation. Best of luck.

Thanks for your questions. This is one of the most frustrating things as a consumer. What is best? Unfortunately, much of your results are dependent on the power of the laser, how it's maintained, what settings are used and the technique of the provider. You could go to another provider to ...
In the correct skin type, yes it can stimulate collagen, however the settings need to be well over the company guidelines. The laser is excellent in skin type 3 and above and can be used in conjunction with medical therapy for melasma. The X factor is not the laser but your dermatologist or...
Thank you for your question! PicoSure treatments for melasma are completely safe for someone prone to keloids. The laser in non-ablative (does not open the skin barrier). Let your treating physician know that you have a history of keloids. Best of luck!
