About the Treatment
Fractional Laser Resurfacing with the Discovery Pico Plus is one of the most powerful skin renewal treatments available today. Using ultra-short picosecond laser pulses, it creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones across the skin, stimulating your body's natural collagen and elastin production while leaving surrounding tissue intact for faster healing.
Unlike traditional ablative lasers, our fractional approach means real, visible results with significantly reduced downtime — making it ideal for anyone with a busy lifestyle who still wants dramatic improvement in their skin's texture, tone, and overall quality.
Whether you're dealing with acne scars that have held you back for years, early signs of aging, enlarged pores, or a dull, uneven complexion — this treatment can help reveal the smooth, radiant skin underneath.
Discovery Pico Plus, The Gold Standard in Picosecond Lasers
The Discovery Pico Plus by Quanta System delivers laser energy in ultra-short picosecond pulses — one trillionth of a second — producing a powerful photoacoustic effect that shatters targets with minimal heat and maximum precision. The result: superior outcomes with less risk and faster recovery compared to older nanosecond technologies.Unlike traditional ablative lasers, our fractional approach means real, visible results with significantly reduced downtime — making it ideal for anyone with a busy lifestyle who still wants dramatic improvement in their skin's texture, tone, and overall quality.

How It Works
Your Treatment, Step by Step
- Skin Cleansing & Consultation: Your provider thoroughly cleanses your skin and reviews your treatment goals. A customized laser protocol is selected based on your skin type, concerns, and desired results.
- Topical Numbing Cream: A prescription-strength numbing cream is applied and left on for 20–30 minutes to ensure your maximum comfort throughout the procedure.
- Protective Eyewear & Prep: You'll be given medical-grade protective eyewear to shield your eyes. The treatment area is prepped and ready for the laser pass.
- Fractional Laser Application: The Discovery Pico Plus handpiece is passed over the skin in controlled patterns. The picosecond pulses create micro-treatment zones, triggering deep collagen remodeling. Most clients describe a warming or prickling sensation — the numbing cream keeps this very manageable.
- Post-Treatment Soothing: Immediately after, a calming serum and broad-spectrum SPF are applied. Your provider reviews your aftercare instructions before you leave, glowing.

- Expect redness, warmth, and mild swelling — similar to a moderate sunburn. This typically peaks within the first 24 hours.
- Your skin may feel tight or slightly sensitive to the touch for 2–3 days.
- Tiny micro-crust formations may appear 2–4 days post-treatment as part of the healing process — do not pick or scratch them.
- Avoid makeup for at least 48 hours after treatment.
- Keep the skin cool and comfortable — apply soothing, fragrance-free products only.

- SPF 30+ is non-negotiable every single day. Laser-treated skin is more sensitive to UV, and sun protection protects your investment.
- Use only gentle, non-irritating skincare for the first week. Avoid acids, retinol, and scrubs.
- Hydrate generously with a barrier-supporting moisturizer morning and night.
- Avoid intense heat (saunas, hot showers, strenuous exercise) for 48–72 hours.
- Resume your full skincare routine gradually, starting around day 7–10 with provider guidance.
