Hello. This is Chief Director Choi Hee-won of Maypure Gangnam Branch.
Dark spots that show through even with makeup, brown blemishes increasing one by one, and an overall dull skin tone.
Many people are looking into Pico Toning due to these concerns.
However, if you actually examine the skin, there are cases where melasma and blemishes coexist, and cases where the types and depths of pigmentation differ.
If you want a clear and even skin tone, it is important to first choose a treatment suitable for the type of pigmentation.
Today, we will look into the differences between Pico Toning and Clarity blemish lasers, and the reasons for considering Meladous Skin Booster together.
01. Should melasma and blemishes be treated with the same laser?
Melasma and blemishes may look similar, but they differ in pigmentation characteristics and treatment methods.

It primarily appears broadly and irregularly on both cheekbones, cheeks, and forehead. It is a pigmentation disorder influenced by factors such as ultraviolet rays and hormonal changes, requiring continuous management.
Blemishes · Solar Lentigo
The boundaries of the brown spots are relatively distinct, and they may develop due to accumulated UV exposure. Depending on the characteristics of the lesions, lasers that selectively treat specific pigments may be considered.
In fact, if you have skin with both melasma and blemishes, a treatment plan that takes into account the characteristics of each is helpful.
02. You can consider Pico Toning for these skin concerns
Pico Toning is a procedure that targets pigmentation by delivering laser energy for a very short period of time.
If you are concerned about uneven skin tone or pigmentation, treatment methods can be considered depending on the characteristics of the pigment.
In particular, Pico Toning can be performed by repeating the process several times according to the treatment progress and observing changes in skin tone.
Pico Toning procedure is A minimum of 10 sessions and a period of at least 2 months are required.
This is a number that takes into account the skin's regeneration cycle and the rate of pigment improvement.
If the pigmentation is not severe, you may notice gradual improvement starting from the 10th session.
If you are concerned about freckles and uneven skin tone, check if Pico Toning is suitable for your skin.
Since melasma has the potential for recurrence and worsening, treatment is based on UV protection, appropriate procedures, and medication; laser treatments require energy adjustment while monitoring the skin's reaction.
03. For noticeable brown blemishes, use the Clarity Blemish Laser
While some people want to manage their overall skin tone, others are troubled by brown spots that stand out particularly whenever they look in the mirror.
As such Specific blemishes with distinct boundaries A different approach from PicoToning may be suitable.
The Clarity Blemish Laser is a device that can selectively target pigmented lesions such as blemishes and freckles by utilizing wavelength values that react to epidermal pigments.
At Maypure Gangnam Branch, we recommend Clarity blemish laser treatment, taking into account the type of pigmentation and skin condition.

CommentsIt is great that you separated your questions into walking and sweat-inducing exercises. It would be helpful to know whether I should rest more if redness persists, and to receive guidance on how to gradually increase the intensity; this would make scheduling easier.
CommentsI understand that InMode locations in Bucheon and Siheung have closed down. Where in Gyeonggi-do are there places that offer InMode treatments?
