Pico laser delivers energy in ultra-short pulses, measured in picoseconds, which lets it shatter pigment with less heat in the surrounding skin. In practice that means an effective option for pigmentation and dullness with minimal downtime, and it is the engine behind the Hollywood carbon facial that has earned its place on every red-carpet checklist. At HK Aesthetics it is performed by [Dr. Name] after a consultation.
What Pico helps with
Sun spots and dark spots, uneven tone, post-blemish marks, and general dullness are the core territory. Because the pulses are so short, the treatment works on pigment precisely while staying gentle on the skin around it, which is why downtime is minimal. Whether Pico is the right tool for your specific concern is decided at assessment, not assumed.
The Hollywood carbon facial
A fine layer of medical carbon is applied to the skin, and the laser then sweeps it away, lifting surface debris and stimulating the skin as it goes. The result is an immediate refresh: brighter, tighter-feeling, more even skin with no downtime, which is why it is booked before shoots and wedding events. It is a treatment with a famous nickname, performed here with clinical discipline.
A course, and a word on melasma
Pigmentation responds over a course rather than a single visit; how many sessions depends on the depth and type of pigment, which the consultation establishes. Melasma deserves its own honesty: it can be improved and managed, but it is a recurring condition driven by hormones and sun, and anyone promising to erase it permanently is overselling. We treat it carefully and tell you the truth about maintenance.
Aftercare and sun
Pigmentation treatment without sun protection is rowing upstream. Daily SPF and sun discipline are part of the plan, and they protect both your results and your investment. The rest of the aftercare is light: gentle products for a few days and any specifics your practitioner sets for your skin.
Pico in an event timeline
The Hollywood facial sits comfortably two to three days before an event, since there is no downtime to hide. Pigmentation courses run longer: sessions spaced weeks apart, finishing ahead of your dates so results arrive settled. Brides bring their wedding calendar to the consultation and the practitioner plans backwards from it.
Pricing
Single sessions and courses are priced at consultation once your plan is set. The Hollywood facial is also available as a standalone pre-event booking.
