Skin concerns that are not easily concealed even with makeup, such as enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, and acne scars, have limitations when managed solely through home care. In particular, acne scars require consistent care as they are related to the skin's internal regeneration process.

In such cases, you might consider PicoFraxel. Today, I will tell you about the effects, recommended candidates, treatment frequency, and precautions for PicoFraxel.

1. What is PicoFraxel?

A picosecond laser is a laser that delivers strong energy over a short period of time in picoseconds.

PicoFraxel is said to be a procedure that regenerates the skin by rupturing tissues deep within the dermis and creating air pockets without damaging the skin's surface. It is reportedly helpful for improving acne scars, enlarged pores, and skin texture.

In addition, it is said to be less painful and have a short downtime compared to conventional Fraxel treatments.

2. PicoFraxel Effects

If you are considering PicoFraxel, you are likely curious about its effects. It is said that PicoFraxel has the following effects.

 

1) Improvement of acne scars

If acne is left untreated or inflammation progresses deeply, the skin surface may become uneven or pitted scars may remain. PicoFraxel is said to help improve scars by applying laser stimulation to these scarred areas to induce skin regeneration.

 

2) Pore improvement

Pores can appear enlarged due to various factors, such as sebum secretion or decreased skin elasticity. It is said that PicoFraxel can help manage the elasticity of the skin surrounding enlarged pores.

 

3) Refining skin texture

PicoFraxel can also be helpful for those with rough skin surfaces or makeup that cakes easily. It is said to help smooth out the skin texture by considering the regenerative responses of both the skin surface and the dermis.

3. PicoFraxel Recommended for

It is said that PicoFraxel can be considered by those with the following concerns.

 

1) People with enlarged pores

It is said to be helpful for cases where pores on the butterfly zone, cheeks, and around the nose appear prominent.

 

2) Those concerned about acne scars

It is said that you can consider PicoFraxel if you have pitted scars left after acne or if your skin surface looks uneven due to scars.

 

3) Those with rough skin texture

It is said that you can consider PicoFraxel if your skin surface is not smooth due to scars and pores.

4. PicoFraxel Treatment Cycle

The treatment cycle for PicoFraxel may vary depending on individual skin condition, scar depth, and skin sensitivity. Generally, it is recommended to receive treatments at 2-week intervals to allow for skin recovery.

However, if you have sensitive skin, it is recommended to determine the treatment cycle after consulting with a medical professional, as the intensity and interval of the procedure need to be adjusted.

5. Precautions After PicoFraxel

Since PicoFraxel is a procedure that applies fine laser stimulation to the skin, post-procedure care is said to be important.

 

1) Apply sunscreen thoroughly

It is said that it is important to apply sunscreen thoroughly before going out, as the skin can become sensitive after the procedure.

2) Ensure sufficient moisturizing care

It is recommended to apply plenty of moisturizing cream, as you may experience dryness or tightness after the procedure.

 

3) Avoid saunas, steam rooms, and strenuous exercise

It is recommended to avoid saunas, steam rooms, and strenuous exercise for about a week after the procedure, as the sensation of heat may persist for a long time.

 

4) Do not forcibly remove scabs or dead skin.

As the skin regenerates, scabs may form. Since forcibly removing them can cause irritation, it is important to allow them to fall off naturally.

6. Q&A

1) What is the price of PicoFraxel?

The event price for Maypure PicoFraxel is 80,000 won per session, and the first-visit event price is 49,000 won.

 

2) Is PicoFraxel effective with just one treatment?

You may notice changes after a single treatment, such as improved skin texture or smoother skin around the pores. However, for conditions like pores and acne scars, rather than expecting significant improvement from a single session, repeated treatments tailored to your skin condition are recommended.
