Pico Laser is a pigment-focused treatment. The Rohrer PicoLazer delivers very short picosecond pulses that can target selected unwanted pigment while limiting prolonged heat exposure. The treatment plan still depends on the type of pigmentation, skin tone, recent sun exposure, treatment area and whether the pigment pattern is stable enough for laser treatment.
Pico Laser Near Hermosa Beach With Sun Exposure in the Plan
Hermosa Beach patients receive Pico Laser treatment at the Skin Works Torrance clinic in Rolling Hills Plaza. Pigment treatment is especially dependent on the current condition of the skin, so recent tanning and significant sun exposure are reviewed before treatment rather than treating every visit as interchangeable.
That is particularly important when treating the face, neck or chest, where cumulative sun exposure can affect both the pigment being targeted and the surrounding skin.

| Face | Sun spots, uneven tone and post-acne discoloration | $500 |

What We Check Before Recommending Pico Laser
- Whether the discoloration is a sun spot, freckle, post-acne mark, melasma pattern or another type of pigment
- Skin tone and history of post-inflammatory pigment change
- Recent sun exposure, tanning or self-tanner use
- The depth and distribution of the pigmentation
- Whether melasma is present and how conservatively it should be managed
- Whether Pico Laser, IPL, resurfacing or topical treatment is the more predictable option
Not Every Brown Spot Should Be Treated the Same Way
“Pigmentation” can describe very different problems. A discrete sun spot, diffuse photodamage, post-acne discoloration and melasma do not behave the same way and should not automatically receive the same settings.
Melasma in particular is managed conservatively because heat, inflammation and sun exposure can contribute to recurrence or worsening. A provider may recommend a lower-intensity plan, topical treatment, strict sun protection, or another approach instead of automatically proceeding with laser.
When IPL or Resurfacing May Be a Better Match
Pico Laser is most useful when the primary concern is unwanted pigment. If redness is a major part of the problem, or if rough texture and deeper skin damage are more important than pigment alone, another treatment may fit the concern better.
Pico Laser Near Hermosa Beach: Questions Patients Ask
What does Pico Laser cost near Hermosa Beach?
Current Skin Works pricing starts at $250 for a localized pigment spot. Face or neck treatment is $500, décolleté treatment is $600, and the face-and-neck bundle is $900 before any eligible first-visit discount.
Where is Pico Laser treatment performed?
Hermosa Beach patients receive Pico Laser treatment at Skin Works Medical Spa in Torrance at 2573 Pacific Coast Highway, Suite B.
What kind of laser is used?
Skin Works uses the Rohrer PicoLazer for this picosecond pigment treatment. Settings are selected according to the pigment concern, skin tone, treatment area and recent sun exposure.
Can Pico Laser treat sun spots and brown spots?
Yes. Selected sun spots, brown spots, freckles and other sun-related pigmentation are common Pico Laser concerns after the area has been evaluated.
Can Pico Laser help post-acne discoloration?
Yes. Post-acne discoloration can be treated when the pigment pattern, skin tone and current skin condition make Pico Laser appropriate. Active acne may require a separate treatment plan.
Can Pico Laser be used for melasma?
Selected melasma cases may be treated conservatively, but melasma is complex and can recur or worsen. The provider first determines whether laser, topical therapy or another strategy is more appropriate.
Can I have Pico Laser if I recently tanned?
Recent tanning or significant sun exposure can affect treatment safety and settings. A provider may recommend waiting until the skin is in a better condition for pigment treatment.
How much downtime is typical?
Temporary redness, warmth, mild swelling or darkening of treated pigment can occur. Individual spots may darken before they flake or fade, and recovery varies according to the area and treatment settings.
How many Pico Laser sessions will I need?
A localized pigment spot may need a different plan than broader sun damage. For larger pigment concerns, a series of approximately 3 to 5 treatments is common, with the final plan based on response.
