My blemishes were getting darker, so I started Pico Toning.

📌 1. Visited Branch: "Maypure Hongdae Station Branch"

Hi. I usually find applying sunscreen such a hassle that I just went around with a bare face, but at some point, dark spots and blemishes started appearing really dark around my cheekbones. ㅠㅠ They wouldn't cover well even with makeup, and slathering on concealer just made my makeup look thick, creating a vicious cycle where my skin looked even more stifled. Every time I looked in the mirror, my skin tone looked dull and I seemed to be getting older, so I decided I needed to start taking care of it before it was too late and went to the clinic. ㅎㅎ

During my consultation with the director, he mentioned that the blemishes on my face showed significant hyperpigmentation. So, he recommended Pico Toning, which is said to effectively break down pigmentation deep within, not just on the surface. I was intrigued because he explained that it shoots much finer pulses than regular lasers, causing less damage to surrounding skin and allowing for faster recovery. Honestly, since it was my first time getting a laser treatment, I was super nervous about it hurting, but once I actually received it, it was just a slight stinging sensation. It felt like being lightly snapped by a rubber band, so it was quite bearable.

Since they even applied a soothing pack after the procedure, the heat on my face subsided quickly, so I was able to go back to my daily life immediately without any issues. I’ve completed my third Pico Toning session now, and I definitely feel like my overall facial tone has become much clearer. When I look in the mirror after washing my face without makeup, I used to have a dull, yellowish tint, but now I can actually see that it has brightened up, which is totally fascinating haha. The blemishes on my cheekbones, which I was most concerned about, have also faded compared to before, so these days, I can cover them all with just a thin layer of cushion foundation.

To be honest, it doesn't erase everything instantly, but since I've been getting treatments consistently, I can see it gradually fading right before my eyes, so my personal satisfaction is top-notch haha. I signed up for a 10-session package, and I'm already looking forward to seeing how much clearer my skin will be once I finish all the remaining sessions. If you are stressed about fine blemishes or uneven skin tone like me, I highly recommend getting a consultation for Pico Toning. They say pigmentation gets deeper the longer you leave it untreated, so let's all start taking care of it in advance ㅠㅠ
