PicoPlus in Dongseong-ro, Daegu

A picosecond pigment laser that the clinic uses mainly for melasma, designed to clear excess melanin while sparing the surrounding skin.

Quick answer: PicoPlus at JRYN Clinic Daegu is a picosecond laser used mainly for melasma, sun spots, freckles and post-inflammatory pigmentation. Its pulses are far shorter than those of conventional lasers, so melanin is broken down with very little heat; sessions are short, redness usually fades within hours, and a course is typical.

What is PicoPlus?

PicoPlus is a picosecond pigment laser which, the clinic notes, is approved by Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety for melasma treatment. It is often chosen when pigment needs to be treated gently and repeatedly without overheating the surrounding skin.

How it works

Picosecond pulses, roughly a thousand times shorter than older nanosecond lasers, shatter melanin selectively while barely heating the tissue around it. Less heat means less risk of irritation, which matters for melasma because it can darken when the skin is inflamed. Treatment is usually given as a course of gentle sessions, often as pico toning.
