Picosecond laser to have a skin with a uniform tone
The first step for facial rejuvenation is to unify the tone, without spots or redness. Similar to the appearance of the skin after applying a makeup. Thus, the skin looks “fresh and young“.

At Ribe Clinic we have multiple medical lasers and other technologies that are used in rejuvenation treatments, where we seek to obtain a skin with a uniform, luminous tone, with less visible wrinkles and firmer skin.

The picosecond lasers, a technological novelty for tattoo removal, have recently incorporated protocols with parameters that are used for rejuvenation.
These picosecond lasers use the shortest pulses on the market measured in picoseconds (trillionth of a second) to break down the pigments into very small particles. Thus, we destroy the brown pigment of the spots, with the same mechanism with which we fragment the ink particles of a tattoo and it is eliminated by the natural processes of the body. Progressively we leave the skin without spots and with a uniform tone. In addition, by acting on the dermis, we stimulate the formation of new collagen.
The picosecond laser treatment is indicated at any age for its efficacy and safety. Thus, we will perform a treatment with the picosecond laser when the skin has spots, uneven tone, open pore, brightness, lack of brightness… And this can happen at any age.
Normally, 4-6 sessions (1 session every 2-4 weeks) are performed with the picosecond laser to achieve a uniform skin tone, without spots, without brightness and brightness.
The effectiveness of the treatment depends on many factors such as the type of pigmentation, the area, size and depth. Thus, the number of sessions and the parameters used will be individualized for each patient.
The picosecond laser treatment is effective and safe to improve the texture and tone of the skin, without spots or glosses, as well as flaccidity in patients with flaccidity in the lower third of the face, fine wrinkles and dyschromia. The session with this laser lasts 15 min in which you can feel heat in the skin, but the patients do not describe it as painful. In addition, social life resumes immediately.
Picosecond lasers, a technological novelty for tattoo removal, have recently incorporated fractional hand pieces that are used to have a skin with a uniform tone, without spots, without redness and shine and with luminosity..
Dr. Adriana Ribé has been a pioneer in offering the revolution of rejuvenation in Spain: the fractionated picosecond laser treatment known as Resolve. These fractional hand pieces have been used since March 2016. Dr. Adriana Ribé has carried out a research study performing biopsies on patients and has extensive experience in this state-of-the-art technology.
These are two hand pieces with wavelengths 1064 and 532 nm with a holographic diffractive optic that are inserted into the picosecond laser arm. This diffractive optics causes the laser energy to be emitted in a square of 6×6 mm with 100 energy peaks of the same fluence. The energy is absorbed in the dermis producing a high energy pattern that generates plasma and cavitation (known as LIOBS (laser induced optical breakdown). Thus, the formation of new collagen (neocolagenesis) is activated.
This energy emitted by the laser is absorbed in the dermis, fragmenting the old collagen of poor quality and activating the formation of new collagen (neocolagenesis) at the site of the old collagen.
Thus, progressively after each laser session we eliminate the old collagen of poor quality and we have a new collagen and a richer matrix that retains water improving the appearance of the skin and giving light to the face.
It will depend on the skin quality. In general, this laser treatment to illuminate the face and have a uniform skin tone requires about 4-6 sessions (1 session / 2-4 weeks).
The session with this laser to illuminate the skin of the face and have a uniform tone without spots lasts about 15 min in which you can feel heat in the skin, but the patients do not describe it as painful. It does not need to apply anesthesia.
After the laser session to give light to the face, a soothing moisturizer and sun protection factor is applied.
This fractional picosecond laser treatment is effective and safe to improve the texture and tone of the skin as well as flaccidity in patients with flaccidity in the lower third of the face, fine wrinkles and dyschromia.
