Pico FX (also called Pico Genesis FX) is a fractional, non-ablative laser treatment that uses controlled bursts of light energy to target specific layers of the skin. It can be used to address a range of general skin concerns relating to tone, texture, and the visible effects of ageing or sun exposure, such as freckles and sunspots. Visible ageing and sun exposure are a normal part of skin over time, and treatment is a personal choice.

Treatment Discomfort:

Mild; varies between patients

Longevity:

Not permanent; varies individually

MOA

Pico FX is a fractional, non-ablative laser that delivers short, controlled bursts of light energy to targeted layers of the skin while leaving much of the surface intact. This controlled process supports skin renewal by encouraging natural cellular turnover and the production of the skin’s structural proteins. Because the surface is largely preserved, recovery periods are generally shorter than with traditional ablative resurfacing, though this varies between individuals.

Pico FX Treatment Summary

The number of sessions varies from person to person and is planned after assessment. Some people have several treatments spaced apart, and your clinician creates a personalised plan at your consultation.

Treatment time depends on the size of the area and the concern being addressed. Your appointment also includes preparation and aftercare guidance.

Sensation varies between patients — most describe it as mild and manageable. Comfort measures such as topical numbing cream and skin cooling can be used, and pain management is discussed at your consultation.

Downtime varies: temporary redness, warmth or mild swelling may occur, and some people experience light dryness or flaking as the skin renews. Many return to daily activities within several days, though some experience redness and micro-crusting for around 7–10 days.

Pico FX supports skin renewal by encouraging natural cellular turnover and the production of the skin’s structural proteins, with changes developing gradually over time. Individual results vary.

How long visible improvements last varies between individuals; results are not permanent, so occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended over time.

Many people return to daily activities within several days, though some prefer a few days of social downtime and some experience redness and micro-crusting for around 7–10 days. Consider scheduling well before special events or travel.

Follow your clinician’s instructions and avoid direct sun exposure for the period advised (typically around one to two weeks), along with strenuous activity, hot environments such as saunas, and swimming. Aftercare guidance is tailored to your skin’s response.

Pico FX General Information

After a consultation and skin assessment, a topical numbing cream and cooling are typically applied for comfort, and the laser is passed over the treatment area.

Pico FX is a fractional laser, and settings that suit one person can be wrong for another — so who operates the device, and how carefully it is dialled in, is central. Worth asking any provider:

  • whether the person treating you is trained on this fractional laser and can adjust energy and density to your skin type;
  • whether your skin is assessed first, since deeper complexions carry a higher chance of pigment change;
  • how they set realistic expectations about session numbers and the gradual, cumulative build of results;
  • how the temporary redness and micro-crusting — which can last around 7–10 days — are managed, and what aftercare and sun-avoidance advice you will be given.

Because a fractional laser delivers energy into living skin, the difference between an appropriate setting and one that risks a burn or a pigment change comes down to assessment and technique — which is why medical oversight is relevant here. At MedAesthetics, Pico FX is carried out by a trained clinical team in a doctor-led clinic overseen by Dr Ehsan Jadoon (MED0001586460), Registered Medical Practitioner (general registration). Your skin type and the concern being treated are assessed before anything is switched on, the benefits, limits, risks and alternatives are talked through, and there is no pressure to proceed. To find out whether it suits your skin, arrange a consultation.

Pico FX FAQs

Both use laser technology to address skin texture and tone, but they differ in how the energy interacts with the skin. Pico FX uses a fractional, non-ablative approach that targets deeper layers to support renewal and textural refinement, while Pico Genesis uses very short, controlled light pulses aimed at uneven skin tone and general pigmentation concerns. Your clinician will discuss which option may suit your goals and skin type.

It can be considered for most skin types, including deeper complexions, when assessed and delivered by an experienced clinician. Your practitioner will evaluate your skin at consultation to determine the most appropriate approach for you.

Treatment duration varies with the size of the area and the concern being addressed. Your appointment also includes preparation and aftercare guidance.

Your clinician will advise when makeup can be applied, based on your skin’s response. Many people are advised to avoid heavy makeup for the first few days and to use lightweight, non-comedogenic or mineral-based products once the skin has settled.

This depends on your skin condition, response and goals. Some people have several treatments spaced apart. Your clinician will create a personalised plan at your consultation.

Downtime varies with treatment intensity and personal healing. Temporary redness or mild swelling is common, and some people prefer a few days of “social downtime.” Some patients experience prolonged redness and micro-crusting for around 7–10 days, so consider scheduling well before special events or travel.

Your clinician will give you personalised pre-treatment advice. Generally you may be asked to avoid sun exposure and tanning for around two weeks beforehand, and to pause certain active skincare ingredients (such as retinoids or exfoliating acids) for a few days before your session.
