Pigmentation should be diagnosed before laser treatment because melasma, sun spots and post-inflammatory marks behave differently. Pico laser treatment is selected only when the wavelength, skin type and concern are an appropriate match.
Picosecond lasers deliver very short energy pulses that fragment selected pigment with less reliance on prolonged heating. Depending on the device and wavelength, treatment may be considered for certain unwanted pigmentation, tattoo pigment and textural concerns.
The doctor assesses skin type, pigment depth, medicines, recent tanning and previous procedures. A test spot may be advised. Protective eyewear is mandatory, and conservative parameters plus strict aftercare are especially important for Indian skin tones.
Suitability depends on the exact diagnosis and laser wavelength. Active infection, recent tanning, photosensitizing medicines and a tendency toward pigment alteration can require postponement or another plan.
A consultation is important because results, session numbers, downtime and suitability vary. Active infection, pregnancy, certain medicines, a tendency to form keloids, or an underlying medical condition may change the recommended plan.
