How about Honeycomb Picosecond

Some people may think of food first when they see the word honeycomb picosecond, but this is not the case. Honeycomb picosecond is a medical technology. It is a laser technology that can remove melanin from the surface of human skin. Therefore, many people with spots or moles on their faces will choose to use this method to remove them. Many people don’t know much about this laser spot removal technology. Let me give you a detailed introduction below.

After picosecond laser freckle removal treatment, the skin has a natural recovery process. After laser surgery, there may be black eschar on the wound surface at first. After 1 to 3 days, there will be slight redness and swelling on the wound surface. A few blisters may appear, and then dry and form scabs. After 10 to two weeks, the scabs will fall off and heal. Usually, the younger the age and the better the skin condition, the faster the recovery. So be patient after laser treatment and don't be impatient to touch it with your hands.

Suggestion: Don't blindly remove freckles. Symptomatic treatment will be better. Pay attention to sun protection when going out.

It is more common in women and will gradually increase with age. It is common on the face, especially the nose and cheeks, and can affect exposed parts such as the neck, shoulders, and back of the hands. The rash becomes darker and more numerous after sun exposure in the summer, and is alleviated or disappears in the winter. There is often a family history.

Recommendation: In this case, you should pay attention to sun protection after surgery and eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C or vitamin E.

Misunderstanding 1: Does picosecond laser have a fast speed and no pain at all?

Picosecond lasers are advanced because the duration of a single laser pulse they emit is so short, as short as one trillionth (10ˉ¹²) of a second, or picoseconds, so that the energy of the laser is fully released in such a short moment. Although the pulse time of picosecond laser is short and the thermal damage to the treated area is relatively small, it will definitely produce a thermal effect as long as it comes into contact with pigments, so there will definitely be a hot stinging sensation. However, compared with traditional lasers, the applicability of picosecond laser is already very good. There are several misunderstandings about honeycomb picosecond laser. How many of them have you encountered?

This powerful explosive force causes the energy of photons to be absorbed and converted into mechanical energy of the photoacoustic effect, but less thermal energy, so the energy is confined to the target tissue (usually melanosomes or exogenous tattoo particles) to the greatest extent.

This effect brings two benefits

01- Better selectivity, reducing the diffusion of energy (heat) to surrounding normal tissues, thereby reducing their damage and reducing the risk of pigmentation or hypopigmentation

02-The target is smaller, and even smaller pigment particles can be broken. Picosecond laser can still show its power to break up the tiny particles that could not be broken up by nanosecond laser before. Therefore, many tattoos that still have residual after multiple nanosecond laser treatments can be removed by picosecond laser.

Misunderstanding 2: Picosecond laser is so powerful, can it treat all pigmentations? Should I overexert myself in the sun or dehydrate myself?

PicoSure is approved by the FDA in the United States for the treatment of tattoos, benign pigmented skin lesions, wrinkle removal and skin rejuvenation, and acne atrophic scars.

Although it can treat a wide range of conditions, it is still not a panacea. For example, treatment of blood vessels, hair, and lipolysis are not within the treatment range of PicoSure.

Even for pigmented skin diseases, a doctor needs to make an accurate diagnosis based on the condition before determining whether it is an indication for picosecond laser treatment. The specific expected efficacy and course of treatment must also follow the doctor's advice.
