Pico Laser Sydney | Effective Laser Pigmentation Removal

Skin Pigmentation Treatment

Struggling with stubborn pigmentation that affects your skin’s appearance? At LaserALL® Dermal Clinics, we use the advanced Candela Picoway laser to treat pigmentation issues such as sun damage, hormonal pigmentation, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Picoway’s cutting-edge technology helps you achieve clearer, more even-toned skin safely and effectively, with fewer sessions and minimal downtime.

Why Picoway is the Best Choice for Pigmentation Removal

The Candela Picoway laser is a game-changer in pigmentation removal, thanks to its picosecond technology. It uses ultra-short pulses that break down pigmentation without generating heat, which makes it safer and more effective for all skin types, including darker skin tones. Unlike traditional lasers, Picoway significantly reduces the risk of post-treatment complications and minimises downtime.

Here’s how it works:

  • Photoacoustic Effect: Picoway delivers powerful pulses of energy that shatter pigment into tiny particles, which are naturally removed by your body.
  • Less Heat, More Precision: The shorter pulses mean less heat is generated, preventing damage to the surrounding skin.
  • Faster Results: Many clients see visible improvement after just 1–2 sessions. Learn more about how Picoway works.

Types of Skin Pigmentation

Pigmentation can develop due to various factors, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, and skin trauma. At LaserALL®, we treat multiple types of pigmentation:

Solar Pigmentation (Sunspots)

Solar lentigines (sunspots) are caused by prolonged UV exposure and typically appear on sun-exposed areas like the face, hands, and shoulders. Over time, these spots can become more prominent, especially in sunny regions like Australia.

Hormonal Pigmentation (Chloasma)

Chloasma, or hormonal pigmentation, often appears in women who are taking oral contraceptives or experience significant hormonal fluctuations. The Candela Picoway laser targets this pigmentation effectively, breaking down the dark patches without irritating the skin.

Pregnancy Pigmentation (Melasma)

Melasma is also called the “mask of pregnancy” because it often appears during pregnancy or shortly after childbirth. It’s triggered by a combination of hormonal changes and UV exposure. With Picoway, you can address melasma safely and with minimal discomfort.

Skin Damage Pigmentation (PIH)

Ever had a treatment that triggered further pigmentation or blotchiness?

This can occur from skin trauma, infection, or inflammation as well as: acne, burns, inappropriate use of skin peels, other skin products, and micro-dermabrasion. Some chemical and mechanical treatments intended to improve the appearance of your skin can have an adverse effect over time or when incorrectly applied can stimulate melanocytes to produce excess melanin. Some other conditions arising from skin damage not listed above are below;

  • Dyschromatoses
  • Epidermal Pigmentation
  • Cafe-au-Lait Macules
  • Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)

Pigmentation from skin trauma can lead to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Whether it’s caused by acne scars, burns, or improper skincare treatments, Picoway helps fade these dark spots and restore an even complexion.
