What is Laser Pigment and Resurfacing?

Laser Pigment and Resurfacing Treatment with the Lumenis Piqo4 is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses state-of the art laser technology to treat skin imperfections, such as pigmentation issues, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven texture. The Piqo4 laser is only 4 wave-length modality of its kind to utilize both Pico and Nano second technologies to remove undesirable pigments. The treatment is particularly effective in breaking down excess melanin, which helps eliminate dark spots and improves overall skin tone and texture. Through targeted laser energy delivery, collagen production and skin cell regeneration are stimulated in the deeper layers of the skin. The laser utilizes acoustics, rather than heat as its primary source of energy to promote neocollagenesis, the stimulation of collagen and elastin production via the body’s natural healing process. This provides a number of added benefits.

Benefits of Laser Pigment and Resurfacing

Laser Pigment and Resurfacing treatments at ONORÉ can improve the appearance of your skin by improving pigmentation and texture. Here are some of the most notable advantages:

• Reduction of Pigmentation Issues: Whether you have melasma, age spots, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, laser treatments effectively lighten dark patches and even out skin tone.
• Improvement in Skin Texture: Resurfacing breaks down fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars, resulting in smoother more youthful looking skin.
• Enhanced Collagen Production: By using acoustic energy the treatment boosts the skin’s elasticity and firmness by stimulating collagen, resulting in a long-lasting, rejuvenated look.
• Minimal Downtime: Unlike more invasive treatments, laser resurfacing has relatively short recovery times, allowing you to get back to your routine quickly, sometimes with redness and sensitivity subsiding within hours of treatment.
• Customizable Treatment: A customized set of treatment parameters are tailored during consult to address your particular skin concerns, such as pigmentation, texture, or overall skin quality.

The Laser Pigment and Resurfacing Procedure: What to Expect

At ONORÉ, highly trained professionals perform Laser Pigment and Resurfacing treatment using the latest technology.

1. Initial Consultation: We will conduct a consultation to determine your skin type and concerns before proceeding with treatment. This allows the practitioner to determine the most appropriate settings for your treatment.
2. Preparation: Before treatment, your skin will be cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied.
3. Laser Application: The laser device is gently passed over the treatment area, delivering controlled bursts of energy at precise depths to target pigment and stimulate collagen production. You may feel a mild warmth or tingling sensation as the laser works on your skin.
4. Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, a cooling serum and SPF protection are applied to your skin. Some people experience mild swelling or redness, but this usually subsides in a few days-more aggressive treatments may cause redness, swelling or sensitivity for several days after treatment.
