What is it
Spot removal is one of the most popular aesthetics treatments. Pico-second lasers like PicoSure and PicoWay deliver ultra-short pulses to shatter pigment without damaging surrounding skin. IPL (intense pulsed light) is a gentler alternative for mild sun damage and freckles. Both are effective for sunspots, age spots, melasma, freckles, and post-acne marks.
Who is it for
Anyone bothered by uneven skin tone, sun damage, stubborn dark spots, or post-acne pigmentation. Pico lasers are particularly well-suited for Asian and olive skin tones (Fitzpatrick III–V) because they carry a lower risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation compared to older laser technologies.
Recovery time
Expect 1–3 days of mild redness and darkening of treated spots (they'll flake off naturally). Deeper treatments for melasma or large areas may need up to 7 days. Most people return to work the next day with sunscreen and mineral makeup.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does laser spot removal cost in Melbourne?
A single session of PicoSure or IPL in Melbourne typically costs $150–$800, depending on the treatment area size and the clinic. Small spot treatments (e.g. a few sunspots) start around $150, while full-face sessions for melasma or extensive pigmentation can reach $600–$800.
How many sessions will I need?
Most people see noticeable improvement after 2–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Lighter pigmentation like freckles may clear in 1–2 sessions, while deeper melasma often needs 4+ sessions plus ongoing maintenance.
Is pico laser safe for Asian skin?
Yes — pico lasers were specifically designed to be safer for darker skin tones. The ultra-short pulse duration minimises heat damage, significantly reducing the risk of rebound pigmentation (反黑) that was common with older Q-switched lasers.
