PicoSure setting for my skin tone, would 1064 be safer? (Photos)

Question

I am part Korean and have hyperpigmentation from sun damage (not melasma). I have been pretreating with 4% HQ and anticipate having Picosure treatment for skin rejuvenation shortly. During my consult, the RN checked my skin pigment which ranged from 19-23. She recommended Picosure with 755 setting to help with both hyperpigmentation and boosting collagen production. Would the 1064 setting be safer for my skin tone, in context of laser-induced hyperpigmentation?

Donald B. Yoo, MD, FACS · Answer

To answer your question, the 755 setting is the standard for treating unwanted pigmentation and minimizing pores. Our Picosure Pro device addresses hyperpigmentation and melasma and is safe for all skin types. The technology precisely targets pigmentated areas without affecting surrounding tissues 
diminishing the risk of post-treatment hyperpigmentation or skin discoloration. It can also significantly enhance skin texture and tone. Results are certainly provider-dependent, so it's important to find a specialist that will customize a treatment that is right for you. @halobeverlyhills
