Hyperpigmentation, acne scars, melasma, age spots, etc. - these are some skin problems of why  Asians are frequent visitors of dermatology clinics. Treatment of those conditions might be a long term commitment in a case to case basis because topical creams/ serums or chemical peels alone are not enough when dealing with those. Lasers are the first line of treatment that clinics are offering to their customers, however with traditional lasers there is a higher chance of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation especially in Asian patients with dark skin.

    

Picosecond laser has a lower risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation than Nanosecond domain Q-switched lasers (widely used for treating various pigment disorder) and is therefore safer and more effective.1 The reason is that the picosecond laser has a short pulse duration and high peak power; it has a higher photomechanical and lower photothermal effects, minimizing the tissue damage caused by heat.2
