Rejuvenation FracRevive and Acne Scars
The Nd Yag Picosecond laser, through its FracTat lens, induces the formation of small intraepidermal vesicles and in the superficial dermis due to the formation of ionized plasma, through a phenomenon known as “Laser Induced Optical Breakdown.” This process leads to an increase in collagen and elastin fibers with improvement in skin quality, rejuvenation, and reduction of imperfections such as acne scars.
Compared to traditional ablative lasers like CO2 and Erbium, redness also occurs after the treatment, but recovery is faster and with lower potential for complications. Multiple sessions are performed with progressive improvement.
Benign Pigmented Lesions
Pigmented skin lesions should first be properly diagnosed, especially through clinical observation, dermatoscopy, and possibly biopsy. Benign lesions can be treated with laser.
The Nd Yag laser is absorbed by melanin, and the very short pulse duration of picoseconds allows for the fragmentation of pigment particles within the cells. More than one session may be necessary. After treatment, a crust forms over the treated area, and appropriate therapy and sun avoidance are prescribed.

Skin Tone Uniformity
The Picosecond laser can be used for skin tone uniformity, such as in patients with many small solar lentigines, diffuse pigmentation, or melasma. In the case of melasma, it is not a first-line treatment and its use should be particularly cautious, always in conjunction with appropriate medical and cosmetic therapies, in which photoprotection plays a key role.
