Excerpt

The picosecond laser is now used widely to treat exogenous and endogenous pigmented lesions and is paired with fractional lens arrays for acne scarring, fine wrinkles, photoaging, and more. Fractional optics has allowed the delivery of high-intensity, short pulses of energy in focal skin. The treatment of acne scars with a picosecond laser and fractional lens array was approved by the FDA in 2014. …
