Tattoo Removal & Skin Pigmentation

Pico Genesis Laser Treatment for Skin Pigmentation:

Melasma, Sun Spots and Brown Spots Pico Genesis is a new laser system that uses photo-mechanical laser energy instead of thermal energy used by other lasers. This helps to provide a safer, faster and more effective treatment of affected skin. Because Pico Genesis is non-thermal based it also does not risk damaging the pigmented skin or surrounding area and making it worse like other thermal laser treatments. Melasma can be a very stubborn skin pigmentation problem, but because Pico Genesis works by shattering the pigment instead of risking heat damage by using thermal lasers the risk of making the skin pigmentation problem worse through treatment is eliminated. Other laser treatments risk damaging the skin further with treatment
