PicoGenesis is a picosecond laser treatment performed by Dr. Siva Teja Jetty at Princeton Aesthetics, targeting pigmentation, uneven skin tone, and clarity with ultra-short laser pulses.
If you’re seeking a solution to uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation, PicoGenesis at Princeton Aesthetics by Dr. Jetty offers an innovative laser treatment designed to rejuvenate your complexion with remarkable efficacy and minimal downtime.
Ultra-short picosecond pulses shatter pigment particles with photomechanical force — not heat — preserving surrounding tissue while delivering superior clearance.
532nm and 1064nm wavelengths address both superficial and deep pigmentation across all Fitzpatrick skin types, with no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Treatments complete in under 20 minutes with no recovery period. Patients return to normal activities immediately — no peeling, no bandaging, no interruption.

PicoGenesis is a gentle yet potent laser treatment tailored for individuals wishing to reduce or eliminate skin imperfections such as Sun damage, Brown spots, Age Spots, Hyperpigmentation, Melasma, Redness, and Pigmented lesions.
This state-of-the-art device operates differently from conventional, high-intensity lasers. By employing ultra-short pulses of dual wavelength laser energy, PicoGenesis targets and disrupts pigmentation without generating excessive heat. This non-thermal method precisely eliminates unwanted pigmentation while safeguarding the surrounding skin.
PicoGenesis allows for a highly customized treatment approach. Whether you prefer the “point and shoot” technique for targeted areas or a more general sweep for widespread discoloration, this treatment caters perfectly to your needs.
Unlike high-intensity thermal lasers, PicoGenesis minimizes recovery time. The short bursts of light energy result in minimal swelling and redness, with only some mild skin flaking after the procedure. Therefore, PicoGenesis is ideal for those looking to enhance their complexion without significant downtime, allowing for a fresher and more vibrant appearance without the lengthy recovery period.
Explore the benefits of PicoGenesis at Princeton Aesthetics, where advanced technology meets personalized care, paving the way to your dream of flawless skin.
PicoGenesis delivers pulses 100x shorter than traditional Q-switched lasers, generating photomechanical shattering instead of photothermal damage for safer, faster clearance.
Shorter pulse duration means more energy is converted to pressure waves rather than heat, breaking pigment into smaller particles that the lymphatic system clears more efficiently.
Minimal thermal effect significantly reduces the risk of scarring, burns, or pigmentation changes — making PicoGenesis appropriate for all skin tones including Fitzpatrick IV–VI.
Dual-wavelength capability (532nm for superficial pigment, 1064nm for deeper dermal pigment) ensures targeted treatment without off-target absorption in darker skin.
Most patients see visible improvement within 2–3 sessions, compared to 6–10 sessions often required with older nanosecond-pulse technologies.
No ablation, no bandaging, no extended recovery. Mild redness resolves within hours, making PicoGenesis compatible with active professional and social schedules.
PicoGenesis utilizes a unique and advanced laser technology that sets it apart from traditional laser treatments. Here’s a detailed explanation of how it works:
PicoGenesis employs short bursts of dual-wavelength laser energy. These ultra-short pulses (measured in picoseconds) are delivered with high precision to target pigment cells in the skin without affecting the surrounding tissue.
PicoGenesis harnesses the principles of photomechanical laser-tissue interaction, where the pulse duration is shorter than the inertial confinement time of the tissue. This results in the fracturing of chromophores with lower energy—a process referred to as “cold ablation.” Such interaction enhances the efficiency of pigment breakdown without excessive heat.
To help you fully grasp the innovative workings of PicoGenesis, we’ve outlined a clear breakdown of the process:
When the laser energy is applied to areas of hyperpigmentation, it delivers a rapid and intense pulse that “blasts” the pigment (melanin) within the skin cells. This creates a shockwave effect that disrupts the pigment particles into smaller fragments.
The sudden energy release causes the targeted pigment to fragment into tiny particles. The high speed of the laser pulse minimizes thermal injury, meaning that there is minimal discomfort and downtime compared to conventional high-intensity lasers.
Once the pigment has been broken down into smaller fragments, the body's natural healing processes come into play. These tiny pigment particles are then gradually removed by the body's lymphatic and immune systems via phagocytosis and lymphatic drainage.
As the pigment is removed, the skin begins to heal and regenerate. This process can stimulate collagen production, resulting in improved skin texture, tone, and overall radiance as the repaired skin emerges.
Overall, the PicoGenesis treatment allows for effective pigment removal while promoting the regeneration of healthy, luminous skin, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a rejuvenated and even complexion without significant downtime.
Patients typically see progressive improvement across 2–4 sessions, with pigmentation visibly reduced after the first treatment. Skin tone evens, clarity improves, and overall luminosity increases with each session — with results continuing to develop over 4–8 weeks post-treatment.
IDEAL CANDIDATES AND INDICATIONS
An ideal solution for a diverse range of individuals seeking to enhance their skin’s appearance and restore its youthful glow. This innovative treatment caters to anyone grappling with imperfections that detract from their overall complexion. Here’s a closer look at the specific concerns that PicoGenesis effectively addresses:
For those struggling with an inconsistent skin tone, PicoGenesis brings a powerful rejuvenation option. Its targeted laser technology helps reduce the appearance of discoloration, leaving your skin looking even and harmonized.
PicoGenesis is particularly effective for individuals with hyperpigmentation, a condition characterized by dark patches or spots caused by excess melanin production. This includes age spots, sun spots, freckles, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and post-inflammatory erythema (PIE).
Melasma, a common form of skin discoloration, particularly affects women and can be challenging to treat. PicoGenesis's precise laser energy can significantly improve this condition. Additionally, it addresses skin redness, often a sign of skin irritation or conditions like rosacea, creating a more balanced skin tone.
Various pigmented lesions — including lentigines, café-au-lait macules, and benign epidermal growths — respond well to PicoGenesis. The ultra-short pulse duration allows selective photothermolysis without affecting the surrounding tissue, making treatment both precise and safe.
Beyond targeted pigment correction, PicoGenesis delivers a comprehensive skin refreshing effect. The photomechanical energy stimulates collagen remodeling, improves skin texture and radiance, and restores a youthful clarity — making it an ideal choice for patients seeking overall luminosity, not just spot correction.
Absolutely! One of the remarkable advantages of PicoGenesis is its safety for a wide range of skin types and tones, ensuring everyone can benefit from its rejuvenating effects.
For most individuals, we typically recommend 2 to 4 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart. However, your personalized treatment plan will depend on your unique skin concerns and desired outcomes.
A PicoGenesis session is quick and generally comfortable. You may experience a slight tingling sensation, but most treatments last around 20 minutes, allowing you to fit beauty into your busy schedule.
With minimal downtime, PicoGenesis is perfect for those on the go! Expect some slight redness or swelling, which usually subsides within a few hours, letting you get back to your routine swiftly.
Side effects are rare and minimal, primarily consisting of temporary redness or swelling. You’ll feel confident stepping out post-treatment with hardly any interruption in your daily life!
