Picosecond laser spot removal is an advanced skin beautification technology. Its principle involves using high-energy picosecond laser pulses to instantly shatter pigment particles in the skin, which are then removed from the body through the lymphatic system and metabolic processes, thereby achieving the effect of spot removal. Generally speaking, picosecond laser treatment offers noticeable results, with minimal postoperative wounds, faster healing, and minimal damage to the skin. Whether the effects of picosecond laser spot removal will rebound mainly depends on the following factors:
1. Postoperative care: Sun protection after surgery is crucial, as ultraviolet rays are the main cause of spot formation and worsening. Use high SPF sunscreen and avoid prolonged exposure to strong sunlight.
2. Lifestyle habits: Maintaining good作息 (作息 translates to rest and activity patterns) and dietary habits, avoiding staying up late, and limiting the intake of irritating foods can help reduce the formation of pigmented spots.
3. Genetic factors: Some types of spots may be related to heredity, and even after laser treatment, they may reappear.
4. Completeness of treatment: If deep pigmentation is not completely removed during treatment, residual pigmentation may resurface.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle in daily life, including a balanced diet rich in fresh vegetables and fruits to obtain adequate vitamins and minerals, while avoiding photosensitive foods and spicy, irritating foods, can help reduce the formation of pigmented spots.
