I’ve been on a mission to understand my skin better, and recently I decided to try something new to tackle the pigmentation and marks left behind by acne.

Two weeks ago, I went for a Pico Laser session and this is everything I learned, experienced, and noticed along the way.

Understanding My Skin Before the Treatment

Since my skin leans acne-prone, the leftover spots and scarring have always been my biggest insecurity. After reviewing everything, we concluded that Pico Laser would be the best option to target those deeper layers that topical treatments simply couldn’t reach.

Why Pico Laser Was Chosen

Pico Laser works by delivering ultra-short pulses deep into the skin. These pulses help tighten collagen fibers and make them more flexible, which helps calm inflammation and gradually fade stubborn acne marks. Even though it’s minimally invasive, it still reaches the areas where scars form—something that regular facials or serums aren’t able to do.

Downtime & What to Expect

Right after the session, my skin looked a little red, but the flush faded significantly within a week. Everyone reacts differently depending on skin type, so results and recovery will never look exactly the same from person to person. That’s why getting professional guidance beforehand made such a huge difference—I knew what was normal and what wasn’t.

Results After One Session

By the time I hit day 10, my complexion already looked smoother and noticeably brighter. The hyperpigmentation from old breakouts visibly softened after just one session, which gave me such a boost of confidence. Another pleasant surprise: my skin felt less oily, and I noticed fewer clogged pores around the two-week mark.

Overall, the experience helped me understand my skin on a deeper level and gave me a visible push toward clearer, brighter skin. Pico Laser turned out to be a great option for my pigmentation and post-acne marks, and even one session made a difference. Hope this breakdown helps you make a more confident choice for your own skin journey!
