Laser targeting hyperpigmentation were predominantly on pale skin, until now. The pico lasers at luminisce’s pico suite zap all types safely and efficiently for a wider range of skin tone.<\/p>\n

They burn, we tan. Finally, this difference in immune response between races won\u2019t get in the way of treating dark spots, acne scars, and all other forms of hyperpigmentation for Filipinos with morena and chinita skin tones.<\/p>\n

In Luminisce, they approach hyperpigmentation in different ways, from manual to chemical and with lasers, targeting all its different forms and its specific cause.<\/p>\n

Among the modes available in her clinic, \u201cLaser treatments remain the fastest way to treat hyperpigmentation,\u201d says Dr. Kaycee Reyes, founder of Luminisce. \u201cPico lasers are the fastest and most precise.\u201d<\/p>\n

Current laser technology uses nanotechnology, which fires laser beam energy at skin imperfections in nanoseconds, or a billionth of a second.<\/p>\n

The Pico Suite lasers have shown results for melasma treatment and tattoo removal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Despite nanotechnology lasers being highly effective, patients must go through periods of downtime and problems such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, burns and blisters. These lasers also tend to be selective with pigments, making some lasers less effective for certain skin tones.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven if there are a lot of clinical papers, based on experience, it\u2019s still not the best for Asian skin,\u201d says Dr. Reyes.<\/p>\n

This is especially true for treating delicate conditions. \u201cWhen treating melasma, you have to be careful about using strong lasers because it might aggravate it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMelasma cannot be cured. It can be removed but it will come back, so prevention is the best way.\u201d<\/p>\n

But with a combination of three different Pico lasers, pigments can be zapped painlessly in as quick as one to three monthly sessions.<\/p>\n

Called the Luminisce Pico Suite, it is composed of three devices: PicoMajesty, PicoPlus, and PicoSure Pro. Developed by the US-based aesthetic and medical treatment systems manufacturer Cynosure, the Pico Suite line fires laser beam energy in picoseconds, equivalent to a trillionth of a second. This lessens the risk of laser-related complications and speeds up the visibility of results.<\/p>\n

Because these laser beams are shorter in pulse duration, its photo-thermal effect on the skin is lower and therefore is less damaging to the surrounding skin tissue. Additionally, a picosecond laser breaks pigments into much smaller particles, speeding up results.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur Pico Majesty is the latest. It\u2019s strong but once it touches your skin, it\u2019s very quick. It\u2019s the fastest but the most precise,\u201d says Dr. Reyes. Of all the Pico Lasers in the market, PicoMajesty has the shortest pulse duration in the aesthetics industry<\/p>\n

\u201cWe got it for body whitening because it doesn\u2019t irritate sensitive areas like the underarms,\u201d she adds. PicoMajesty is specifically made to address tattoos and treat other pigment-based skin conditions such as acne and scars. Its high peak power and high laser energy shatters pigments much easily.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, PicoPlus is one of the most versatile Pico lasers in the market. \u201cIt has a wavelength which is good for rosacea, acne pigmentation, and also melasma,\u201d notes Dr. Reyes. \u201cYou cannot use strong lasers on melasma or you will aggravate it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The third of the Pico Suite is PicoSure Pro, dubbed by Dr. Reyes as \u201cThe Bugatti of all lasers.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really precise when it comes to tattoos and can target red and yellow pigments like birthmarks. It\u2019s the only US FDA-approved laser to lessen melasma, Nevus of Ota and Hori\u2019s Nevus,\u201d she explains. \u201cBut on Filipino skin, we still use Pico Plus and Pico Majesty on melasma because those two machines have a wavelength not found in Picosure that\u2019s better tolerated by Filipino skin that can collapse the vessels that deliver growth factors to the pigments. It can also resurface skin to target visible pores, acne scars and fine lines.\u201d<\/p>\n

Results are instant and only get better for a month until it\u2019s time for your next session. Patients have seen dark spots and even colorful tattoos to be gone by the third to fourth session. As for the spots you didn\u2019t intend to have, how do prevent them in the first place? Dr. Reyes emphasizes, whatever your skin tone, \u201cDon\u2019t forget your sunscreen. Even with Pico, don\u2019t forget to use and reapply sunscreen.\u201d<\/p>\n
