Pico Genesis Skin Rejuvenation Treatment Highlights

• Picosecond, non-thermal laser pulses
• Used for pigmentation, uneven tone and general skin rejuvenation
• May be considered for most skin types following individual assessment
• Typically a short procedure (about 15–20 minutes)
• Performed under medical supervision

Pico Genesis (also referred to as PicoSure Genesis) is a laser treatment that uses picosecond, non-thermal light pulses to target unwanted pigment and support renewal of the upper layers of the skin. It is used for concerns such as freckles, sunspots, uneven skin tone and pigmentation including melasma, and it can also support the skin’s collagen and elastin. Pigmentation and changes in skin tone are common and a normal variation in skin; this information is educational, treatment is a personal choice, and no result is guaranteed.

MOA

Pico Genesis uses very short (picosecond) non-thermal pulses of laser light to target unwanted pigment in the upper layers of the skin and to support remodelling of that skin. Over time, the treated pigment tends to break up and gradually fade. The laser energy also supports the skin’s production of collagen and elastin. How the skin responds varies between individuals.

Pico Genesis Skin Rejuvenation Treatment Summary

Number of Treatments

A series of two or three sessions is generally recommended, with ongoing maintenance over time. The number of sessions varies between individuals and is confirmed at your consultation.

Procedure Time

Each procedure takes about 15–20 minutes, plus time for preparation and aftercare guidance.

Discomfort Level

Sensation varies between patients. Comfort measures such as topical numbing cream and a cooling-air device can be used, and pain management is discussed at your consultation.

Recovery Time

Downtime is usually limited: mild facial redness may last a few hours, and some freckles or sunspots may darken and flake off over a few days. Recovery varies between individuals.

Results

Results are usually seen within a few days, as treated pigment tends to break up and gradually fade. Individual results vary.

Duration of Results

Results typically last around 6 months and vary between individuals; results are not permanent, so ongoing maintenance treatments may be needed to help sustain them over time.

Resumption of Usual Activities

Most light activities can be resumed soon after treatment; direct sunlight should be avoided for about 24 hours, and direct sunlight and chlorinated water for about 72 hours. Broad-spectrum sun protection is important during recovery.

Aftercare

Avoid direct sunlight for about 24 hours and direct sunlight and chlorinated water for about 72 hours, with broad-spectrum sun protection important during recovery. Follow your clinician’s aftercare advice.

Pico Genesis Skin Rejuvenation General Information

Process

After a consultation and skin assessment, a topical anaesthetic cream or cooling-air device is typically used for comfort and the laser is passed over the treatment area (usually about 15–20 minutes).

How to Choose Your Pico Genesis Skin Rejuvenation Treatment Provider

With Pico Genesis the target is pigment, and treating pigment with a laser cuts both ways: applied to the wrong skin type or at the wrong setting it can trigger the very hyper- or hypopigmentation you were hoping to fade. So a provider who assesses your skin type carefully, and who is candid that melasma in particular tends to be managed rather than cured and can recur, is worth more than one who promises a clean result. It is reasonable to ask how many sessions and how much ongoing maintenance are realistic, who will be operating the laser and what training they have had with it, and to have the risks and alternatives laid out before you decide.

Why Choose MedAesthetics for Pico Genesis Skin Rejuvenation?

Judging whether a pigmentation laser is safe for your skin — and holding back where melasma or a deeper complexion raises the risk of worsening pigment — is a clinical decision, which is why it sits better within a medically supervised setting. MedAesthetics is a doctor-led clinic overseen by Dr Ehsan Jadoon (MED0001586460), Registered Medical Practitioner (general registration), with a qualified clinical team. Before any Pico Genesis session you are individually assessed, and the likely results, the limits (including that pigment can return), the risks and other options are discussed openly, without pressure to go ahead. You are welcome to book a consultation to find out whether it is appropriate for you.
