PicoFrac Duo is Dr. Jetty‘s dual–modality picosecond protocol. Full–beam plus microlens fractional in a single session for pigment, texture, and skin tightening.
Serving Princeton, NJ and Surrounding Communities
Color-blind to melanin and engineered for pigment correction. Full-beam picosecond pulses target sunspots, melasma, and uneven tone via Laser-Induced Optical Breakdown without thermal injury to surrounding tissue.
A microlens array delivers picosecond pulses through hundreds of high-fluence micro-spots per square centimeter, creating focal zones of controlled injury that trigger collagen and elastin renewal for smoother texture and refined surface clarity.
Both passes are completed during the same appointment by Dr. Jetty. The combination accelerates the visible result and shortens the total course compared with staged single-modality plans.
PicoFrac Duo pairs two picosecond laser modalities in one appointment. A full-beam pass targets unwanted pigment and resets tone at the cellular level. A fractional pass follows, delivered through a microlens array, to refine texture, soften fine lines, and trigger collagen renewal. The protocol delivers in a single visit what most plans deliver as two separate appointments.
The combined full-beam + microlens fractional approach is supported by Wu et al., Lasers in Medical Science, 2025, a randomized split-face trial that validated combining 1064 nm picosecond with microlens fractional for pigment and texture indications.
Both modalities are delivered with the Cutera enlighten III, a three-wavelength picosecond platform (1064 nm, 532 nm, 670 nm) with a microlens fractional handpiece. PicoFrac Duo consists of two coordinated global passes: full-beam 1064 nm PicoGenesis for diffuse pigment correction, followed by 1064 nm fractional picosecond through a microlens array for texture and collagen renewal. When patient-specific findings warrant, Dr. Jetty performs focal 1064 nm, 532 nm, or 670 nm spot pre-treatment of individual pigmented lesions before the global passes, with wavelength selection based on Fitzpatrick type, lesion depth, and a risk/benefit discussion with the patient.
PicoFrac Duo addresses sunspots, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, melasma, uneven tone, dullness, fine lines, and surface roughness. The combined approach stimulates dermal remodeling that continues to soften lines and improve clarity for weeks after the appointment. With PicoFrac Duo, patients receive a single session that resets pigment and rebuilds texture together, accelerating the visible result and shortening the overall treatment course.
Most clinics offer either pigment correction or fractional resurfacing. PicoFrac Duo combines both into a single coordinated session designed by Dr. Jetty for patients who want measurable change without weeks of sequential appointments.
Full-beam pigment correction followed by fractional collagen induction. Each pass complements the other rather than competing for the same outcome.
Picosecond wavelengths target chromophores without bulk heating, which protects pigmented skin from post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. PicoFrac Duo is appropriate for Fitzpatrick I through VI.
Every PicoFrac Duo session is performed by Dr. Jetty. Parameters are calibrated to each patient's tone, condition, and goals. There is no delegated laser delivery at Princeton Aesthetics.
The post-treatment course involves mild redness and warmth lasting hours, not days. Most patients return to work, exercise, and social activity the same day or the next.
PicoFrac Duo is Dr. Jetty's clinical integration of two evidence-supported picosecond modalities into a single coordinated session. It is the second core step of LaseLift, Dr. Jetty's signature non-surgical facelift protocol, and can also be booked as a standalone treatment for pigment and texture concerns.
Treatment begins with picosecond pigment correction. When patient-specific findings indicate, focal 1064 nm, 532 nm, or 670 nm spot pre-treatment of individual pigmented lesions is performed first. Then full-beam 1064 nm PicoGenesis is delivered across the treatment field to fragment diffuse pigment at the cellular level via Laser-Induced Optical Breakdown without bulk heating of the surrounding skin.
Fractional picosecond pulses follow, delivered through a microlens array. The array splits the beam into focal high-fluence micro-spots per square centimeter, creating controlled zones of injury that trigger dermal collagen and elastin renewal.
Each session ends with cooling and aftercare guidance. Mineral sunscreen is required, gentle skincare for forty-eight hours is preferred, and patients return for the next session in four to six weeks.
Pigment cleared at the cellular level.
Picosecond pulses fragment lentigines and superficial sun damage without thermal injury to the surrounding skin. Number of sessions is individualized to lesion depth and skin type.
A more controlled option for a difficult condition.
The non-thermal picosecond mechanism fragments pigment without the bulk heating that drives post-inflammatory rebound with longer-pulse approaches. Published systematic reviews and meta-analyses support picosecond lasers for melasma in appropriately selected patients.
Pigment from acne, eczema, or prior procedures.
Stubborn pigment responds to picosecond fragmentation without the risk of darkening pigmented skin that limits older laser approaches.
Texture refined through fractional renewal.
Focal collagen and elastin renewal across the microlens fractional pattern smooths fine lines and refines pore-level texture over the four to twelve weeks after each session.
Architecture remodeled, structure rebuilt.
Fractional picosecond pulses remodel the dermal scaffolding that holds atrophic scars in place and address the structural consequences of UV exposure over a series of sessions.
Both passes are not interchangeable. The full-beam pass alone treats pigment; the fractional pass alone treats texture. Sequencing both in one session is what makes PicoFrac Duo a different picosecond protocol from a standard PicoGenesis appointment.
PicoFrac Duo is appropriate for patients with combined pigment and texture concerns who want efficient, single-session treatment. Because picosecond wavelengths are color-blind to melanin and avoid the bulk heating that drives post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, the protocol is safe across the full Fitzpatrick range. Dr. Jetty reviews skin history, medication list, and prior laser exposure during the consultation to confirm candidacy. For patients pursuing a full non-surgical facelift, PicoFrac Duo is the second core step of the LaseLift protocol alongside FracLase and Intraoral Lifting.
Pigment and texture together.
Sunspots, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, uneven tone, fine lines, surface texture, dullness, and the early signs of photoaging.
Fitzpatrick I through VI.
Picosecond wavelengths target chromophores without thermal injury to surrounding pigmented skin, which makes PicoFrac Duo appropriate across the full Fitzpatrick range.
Want efficient, evidence-based change.
Patients who want measurable improvement in tone and texture without committing to weeks of downtime, and who prefer single-session efficiency over staged photofacials and fractional appointments.
PicoFrac Duo is deferred in patients with active skin infection, recent isotretinoin use, untreated pigmented lesions in the treatment field, or pregnancy. Dr. Jetty reviews every candidate personally and recommends the appropriate timeline for treatment.
PicoFrac Duo was developed by Dr. Jetty from the ground up. It is not a manufacturer protocol or a marketed package.
Every session is delivered by the physician. There is no delegated laser application or technician-only model at Princeton Aesthetics.
Spot size, fluence, wavelength, and microlens fractional density are selected for each face based on Fitzpatrick type and the findings of the consultation.
A precise picosecond platform with 1064 nm and 532 nm wavelengths and a microlens fractional handpiece for the texture pass.
Two passes in one visit means fewer appointments, faster visible results, and less disruption to daily life than staged pigment and texture plans.
Picosecond pulses target chromophores without bulk heating, which makes PicoFrac Duo appropriate for Fitzpatrick I through VI when settings are individualized.
PicoFrac Duo rebuilds the skin's own pigment regulation and collagen architecture rather than masking surface change with injectables.
PicoFrac Duo is the second core step of LaseLift, Dr. Jetty's signature non-surgical facelift. It can be a standalone session or a coordinated part of the LaseLift course.
Each consultation reviews findings, expected response, session count, and the rationale for the chosen parameters before any laser is delivered.
Patients see the same physician each visit, with longitudinal review of pigment, texture, and photo-documented response between sessions.
Most patients return to work, exercise, and social activity the same day. There are no extended recovery windows or peeling phases.
