Pico laser treatment in Malaysia is a safe, non-invasive medical laser used for pigmentation, acne scars, tattoos, and skin rejuvenation. It uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to break pigment with minimal heat and downtime. When performed by trained doctors, it is especially suitable for Asian skin types.
GLOJAS Specialist Clinic in Malaysia provides expert Pico Laser treatments for pigmentation, acne scars, and skin rejuvenation. LCP-certified doctors use FDA-approved devices to deliver safe, effective results, backed by decades of clinical experience and trusted patient care.
Pico laser is a medical laser that delivers energy in picoseconds, or one trillionth of a second. Unlike older lasers, it does not rely mainly on heat. Instead, it uses a photoacoustic effect to break pigment into tiny particles.
These particles are slowly removed by the body’s immune system.
Pico Laser can effectively treat a variety of skin concerns:
Hyperpigmentation: Sun spots, age spots, melasma, freckles, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Acne Scars & Skin Texture: Depressed acne scars, large pores, uneven skin texture.
Skin Rejuvenation: Improves fine lines, dull skin and collagen stimulation.
Tattoo Removal: Black and colored tattoos, tattoos that did not respond to earlier treatments.
Pico laser breaks pigment and tattoo ink into tiny pieces. The body then removes them naturally, helping fade melasma, freckles, sunspots, and dark marks.
The laser uses very short pulses with little heat. This lowers the risk of dark patches after treatment, which is common in Asian and darker skin tones.
The laser boosts collagen production. This helps smooth acne scars, reduce pore size, and improve overall skin tone and texture.
Pico laser can treat pigmentation, acne scars, tattoos, fine lines, and dull skin, making it a versatile treatment for many skin concerns.
Pico laser works faster than older lasers. Pigment breaks down more efficiently, so fewer treatment sessions are usually required.
The treatment does not damage the skin surface. Mild redness may appear, but most people return to work and daily activities on the same day.
How Does Pico Laser Work?
Pico laser works by sending ultra-short laser pulses into the skin. These pulses:
Break pigment and tattoo ink into very small particles
Reduce heat damage to surrounding skin
Stimulate collagen and elastin production
Because the pulse is extremely short, pico laser lowers the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). This is important for Asian skin types (Fitzpatrick III–V), which are common in Malaysia.
Is Pico Laser Safe for Asian Skin?
Yes, when done by trained medical professionals.
Pico laser is one of the safest laser options for Asian skin because it causes:
Less heat injury
Lower PIH risk
More precise pigment targeting
Safety depends on:
Correct diagnosis
Proper wavelength choice
Medical-grade equipment
Doctor experience
