Concerned about pigmentation, post-acne marks, dull skin or uneven skin tone — but not sure whether Pico Laser is the right treatment for you?
At Aglow, Pico Laser treatment begins with a doctor-led assessment of your skin concern, skin type and treatment goals. Rather than recommending the same laser plan for everyone, we tailor treatment settings and your care plan to your individual needs.
Our Pico Laser treatment may be considered for concerns such as pigmentation, acne marks, uneven tone, enlarged pores and overall skin clarity.
“Dark spots” can have different causes. Some may be related to sun exposure, post-acne marks or uneven pigmentation, while others may require a different approach or a combination of treatments.
That is why choosing a Pico Laser treatment should not be based only on a promotion or a machine name.
During your consultation, our doctor assesses:
Your primary concern and skin history
Skin type and sensitivity
Whether pigmentation, acne marks or texture is the main issue
Whether Pico Laser is suitable for your current skin condition
The treatment area, expected downtime and possible treatment journey
The goal is to help you make an informed choice — with a realistic plan for healthier-looking, clearer skin.
Pico Laser uses ultra-short pulses of laser energy to target pigment particles while minimising heat exposure to surrounding skin. Depending on your concern and doctor’s assessment, it may support improvement in uneven tone, visible pigmentation, post-acne marks, dullness and skin texture.
At Aglow, Pico Laser is doctor-performed and treatment parameters are customised according to your skin condition and treatment area.
Pico Laser may be considered for selected pigmentation concerns, including sun spots, uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks. Your doctor will first assess whether your concern is suitable for laser treatment and whether other treatments may also be needed.
After active acne has settled, some people are left with red, brown or uneven-looking marks. Pico Laser may be part of a plan to improve the appearance of these marks and restore a more even complexion.
For skin that appears tired, uneven or less radiant, Pico Laser may help support a brighter-looking complexion and smoother overall skin appearance.
Some patients choose Pico Laser as part of a skin-rejuvenation plan to improve the appearance of enlarged pores and skin texture. The right approach depends on your skin condition, lifestyle and desired outcome.
These treatments are not interchangeable.
| Your Primary Concern | A Doctor May Consider |
|---|---|
| Pigmentation, acne marks, dullness or uneven tone | Pico Laser |
| General tone concerns, redness or selected pigmentation concerns | IPL |
| More noticeable textural concerns or certain acne scars | CO₂ Laser or a combination approach |
| Acne scarring with uneven texture | A personalised scar treatment plan, which may include more than one modality |
The right treatment depends on the cause, depth and type of your concern. During your consultation, we explain why a treatment is recommended — and what realistic improvement may look like for you.
Your appointment typically includes preparation, the laser procedure and post-treatment guidance.
Skin assessment
We review your concern, treatment suitability and expectations.
Personalised treatment planning
The doctor selects an appropriate approach based on your skin type, condition and treatment area.
Pico Laser procedure
The treatment itself is performed with care and according to your personalised plan.
Aftercare guidance
You will receive advice on sun protection, skincare and what to expect after treatment.
Treatment time is generally around 30–45 minutes, including preparation and the laser procedure. Mild redness or warmth may occur after treatment and commonly settles within a few days. Individual experiences and recovery times vary.
You may wish to discuss Pico Laser with a doctor if you experience:
Pigmentation or dark spots
Post-acne marks
Uneven skin tone
Dull-looking skin
Enlarged pores
Mild texture concerns
A desire for a doctor-led laser treatment with minimal downtime
However, not everyone will need or be suitable for the same treatment. If you have active skin inflammation, certain medical conditions, a recent procedure or a history of skin sensitivity, your doctor will advise on the most appropriate next step.
Your treatment plan begins with understanding your skin, not simply choosing a package.
We tailor recommendations according to your concern, skin type, treatment area and expected outcome.
Aglow provides doctor-led aesthetic solutions for skin, face, body, hair and wellness concerns.
We explain the recommended treatment, expected journey, aftercare and next steps before you decide.
The number of sessions depends on your concern, skin response and treatment goals. Your doctor will advise on a suitable plan during consultation.
Downtime is generally minimal. Mild redness or warmth may occur after treatment and often settles within a few days. Your aftercare advice may vary based on your treatment plan.
Results vary because pigmentation can have different causes and depths. Pico Laser may be appropriate for selected concerns, but a doctor should first assess your condition and explain realistic expectations.
Pico Laser may help selected post-acne marks and texture concerns. For deeper acne scars, a combination treatment plan may be more appropriate.
Pricing depends on the treatment area, concern and personalised plan. Book a consultation to receive a clear recommendation and pricing information based on your needs.
You do not need to decide on a treatment before understanding your skin concern.
Book a complimentary consultation with Aglow to discuss whether Pico Laser, IPL, CO₂ Laser or another doctor-led approach may be suitable for you.
