Before getting Jamsil Pico Toning
Check your own pigmentation type first

'I'm thinking about getting pico toning,
will it work on my face?'
When there are spots or melasma on the face, pico toning is one of the first treatments people look for.
However, the approach should differ depending on what kind of lesion has settled in the skin.
To get the best treatment results, I'll explain what needs to be considered beyond simply applying laser and why that process is necessary.

Why do we need to check this first?
Over the years, seeing many different skin types in the clinic, one thing has become even clearer to me.
The cause of a skin concern may look similar on the surface, but in many cases the depth and nature of the pigment layer are actually very different.

Spots
The spots people commonly refer to are usually located near the skin surface, so when laser energy reaches them, the response tends to be relatively clear.
Melasma, on the other hand, is influenced by many intertwined factors, including not only ultraviolet light but also hormones, stress, and the health of the skin barrier.

Melasma
In many cases, the pigment root extends deep into the dermis, so simply stimulating the surface repeatedly is not easy to improve it.
If the skin is overstimulated, it may instead produce more melanin to protect itself, which can make the melasma darker.

Mark-Vu
That is why, before treatment, I recommend a detailed measurement of the distribution and depth of melanin through a precision diagnostic device such as Mark-Vu.
You need to know your skin condition clearly so you can reduce the risk of damage and make an efficient plan.

What kind of treatment is it?
Once the pigmentation type has been identified, energy needs to be delivered precisely according to that type.
Among the various laser toning methods, let’s take a closer look at pico toning.

Pico toning delivers powerful energy in an extremely brief instant, on the order of one trillionth of a second.
Here, picoseconds refer to a unit equal to one trillionth of a second.
Because the irradiation speed is much faster than that of conventional devices, it has the advantage of reducing the burden of damage caused by heat transfer to surrounding tissues.
Since the energy is delivered for such a short time, there is less unnecessary spread of heat into surrounding tissue, allowing for precise targeting of only the pigment.

The finely fragmented melanin pigment is naturally removed by immune cells in the body.
Because the depth and amount of pigment vary from person to person, one session is not enough to solve every concern, and improvement comes gradually through repeated treatments.
Therefore, depending on the amount of pigment, it is important to remember that around 5 to 10 sessions may be needed consistently to see results.

How can you get the best results?
Even when performed with excellent equipment, some people are disappointed after treatment if proper aftercare is not provided.
To get the best treatment results, care afterward is just as important.

After treatment, the skin barrier is temporarily sensitive, so it is a good idea to pay extra attention to sun protection.
Ultraviolet rays are a major factor that stimulates melanocytes, so if sun protection is neglected, the carefully treated pigmentation may become darker again.
There are also many reports that keeping the skin sufficiently moisturized helps smooth regeneration and prevents dryness.

Pigment treatment is usually carried out at 1- to 2-week intervals to account for the skin’s recovery cycle.
Rather than shortening the intervals out of impatience, it is better to make a plan that matches the pace your skin can handle.
Even if they all look similar to the naked eye, once you check the depth and distribution with precision diagnostic equipment, each case tends to show different characteristics, so please consult thoroughly and first see whether the plan is appropriate for you.
Today, for those looking for information on Jamsil Pico Toning, I covered the points you need to know.

Pico toning is an efficient method that helps break pigment particles into smaller pieces and promotes their removal, but the results can vary depending on factors such as individual skin thickness and how active the melasma is.
Above all, I recommend first checking your current condition in detail and choosing an approach that suits your skin.
