WHAT CAN PICO LASER TREAT?
Pico Laser can treat many of the most common types of unwanted pigmentation, including sun spots, freckles, age spots and post-inflammatory pigmentation.
IS PICO LASER EFFECTIVE FOR PIGMENTATION?
Yes. Pico Laser is an effective treatment for many common types of pigmentation, including sun spots, freckles, age spots and selected post-inflammatory pigmentation.
Pico Laser works by delivering ultra-short pulses of laser energy into concentrated pigment beneath the skin. The pigment absorbs the energy and is broken into much smaller particles, which your body gradually processes following treatment.
This allows us to target unwanted pigment with precision while limiting unnecessary heat exposure to the surrounding skin.
For suitable pigmentation, you may notice dark spots becoming lighter, areas of sun damage appearing less visible and your overall complexion looking clearer and more even.
Some pigmentation may respond noticeably after a single treatment, while deeper, more widespread or long-standing pigmentation may require a course of Pico Laser treatments to achieve the best result.
The goal is simple: less visible pigmentation and a clearer, more even-looking complexion.
WHAT RESULTS CAN YOU EXPECT?
Pico Laser results develop gradually as your body clears the pigment targeted during treatment.
While every skin responds differently, many clients begin to notice treated pigmentation becoming less visible over the weeks following their appointment.

WHY CHOOSE PICO LASER FOR PIGMENTATION?
Pigmentation can be stubborn.
Even with good skincare, sunscreen and brightening ingredients, areas of concentrated pigment may remain visible because the pigment you're trying to improve isn't always sitting at the surface of the skin.
Pico Laser allows us to target that concentrated pigment directly.
HOW DOES PICO LASER REMOVE PIGMENTATION?
Pico Laser uses extremely short pulses of laser energy to target and break down unwanted pigment within the skin.
Rather than relying primarily on heat, the rapid delivery of energy causes concentrated pigment to fragment into much smaller particles.
Your body can then gradually process those fragments following treatment.
HOW MANY PICO LASER SESSIONS ARE NEEDED FOR PIGMENTATION?
The number of Pico Laser sessions needed for pigmentation varies, but some superficial sun spots and freckles may show noticeable improvement after just one treatment. Deeper, more widespread or long-standing pigmentation may require a course of treatments.
This is why two people with pigmentation can need very different treatment plans.
IS PICO LASER WORTH IT FOR PIGMENTATION?
Yes. If stubborn pigmentation is your main concern, Pico Laser can be worth it for its ability to directly target concentrated pigment that skincare alone may not shift.
For suitable sun spots, freckles and dark marks, Pico can create visible improvement while helping the overall complexion appear clearer and more even.
If you've been treating pigmentation from the surface without seeing the change you want, it may be time to target the pigment itself.
DOES PIGMENTATION GET DARKER AFTER PICO LASER?
Yes. Treated pigmentation can temporarily appear darker before it fades.
This is a normal response for some types of pigment. Don't pick or exfoliate the area - allow it to progress naturally and follow your Kalani aftercare.
Darkening doesn't necessarily mean your pigmentation is getting worse. It can be part of the treatment process.
WHAT ABOUT MELASMA?
Melasma requires a more considered approach than ordinary sun spots or freckles.
Pico Laser may be suitable for selected cases, but because melasma can be influenced by hormones, sun exposure and other triggers, your skin should be assessed before treatment.
If we believe Pico is appropriate for your melasma, we'll build your treatment plan accordingly.
IS PICO LASER BETTER THAN MICRONEEDLING FOR PIGMENTATION?
If pigmentation is your main concern, Pico Laser is the more targeted treatment. Microneedling is better suited when acne scarring, enlarged pores or uneven texture are the priority.
WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT AFTER PICO LASER?
Pico Laser generally involves minimal downtime, with most clients able to return to their normal routine soon after pigmentation treatment.
Your skin may feel warm and appear mildly pink immediately afterwards. Treated pigmentation can also temporarily look darker or more noticeable before it begins to fade.
PROTECT
Use broad-spectrum SPF 50+ and minimise unnecessary sun exposure.
DON'T PICK
Treated pigment may darken as it responds. Allow it to progress naturally.
KEEP IT GENTLE
Avoid exfoliation and active skincare until your skin is ready.
FOLLOW YOUR AFTERCARE
We'll give you specific instructions based on your skin and treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pico Laser For Pigmentation
Yes, Pico Laser can be highly effective for reducing suitable sun spots by targeting the excess pigment responsible for their darker appearance.
As the treated pigment is broken down and gradually processed, the spot can become lighter and less noticeable against the surrounding complexion.
Avoid picking or scratching treated areas, unnecessary sun exposure and aggressive skincare while your skin is recovering.
Treated pigmentation may temporarily become darker, and it's important to allow this process to occur naturally.
Follow your Kalani aftercare instructions and use broad-spectrum SPF consistently.
Most clients describe Pico Laser as a series of quick, warm or snapping sensations against the skin.
Comfort varies between treatment areas and individuals, but the treatment itself is generally quick.
Yes. Pico Laser can be used to reduce selected dark spots caused by concentrated pigmentation, including sun spots, freckles and age spots.
The laser targets pigment within the spot, allowing it to become progressively less visible following treatment.
Pico Laser isn't suitable for every type of pigmentation, and some pigmentation requires more than one treatment to achieve the best result.
Temporary redness, warmth, sensitivity and darkening of treated pigment can occur following treatment. More complex pigmentation, particularly melasma, also requires careful assessment before Pico Laser is recommended.
One Pico Laser session may produce noticeable improvement in some superficial pigmentation, while deeper, more widespread or long-standing pigmentation may require multiple treatments.
We'll assess the type and extent of your pigmentation and give you a realistic recommendation for the number of treatments you're likely to need.
Pico Laser results develop progressively over the weeks following treatment as the targeted pigmentation becomes less visible.
Some pigmentation may initially appear darker before it begins to fade. If you're completing a course of treatments, your result can continue to build with each session.
For suitable pigmentation, Pico Laser can produce significant visible improvement in sun spots, freckles, age spots and selected post-inflammatory pigmentation.
The type and depth of pigmentation, treatment settings, number of sessions and your individual skin response all influence the final result.
The most effective way to fade hyperpigmentation depends on what is causing it and where the pigment sits within the skin.
Professional skincare may be appropriate for some concerns, while established areas of concentrated pigment may respond better to an in-clinic treatment such as Pico Laser.
The first step is identifying the pigmentation correctly and choosing the treatment accordingly.
Pico Laser can significantly reduce the appearance of suitable freckles by targeting concentrated pigment within the skin.
Freckles can return or new freckles can develop with future sun exposure, making consistent sun protection important for maintaining your result.
Pico Laser may be suitable for post-inflammatory pigmentation—the flat brown or darker marks that can remain after acne has healed.
This is different from treating active acne or indented acne scars. If scarring or texture is the main concern, skin needling may be more appropriate.
Kalani Clinic is a Sydney-based cosmetic and skin clinic offering advanced treatments for anti-ageing, acne, pigmentation, laser, body contouring, and professional skincare for both men and women.
