Learn more about PICO Genesis
PICO Genesis, also known as Pico Enlighten, is a non-invasive laser treatment designed to correct facial discoloration and blemishes. Unlike other lasers on the market, PICO laser by Cutera delivers a unique set of wavelengths at a rate of one picosecond — one trillionth of a full second — per pulse. That tiny amount of laser energy is enough to penetrate the skin and break down targeted structures without causing any thermal damage. This not only destroys unwanted pigmented lesions but also triggers the body’s natural healing response, flooding the area with collagen and elastin.
Most laser systems rely on the skin’s ability to convert delivered energy into heat, which can damage the epidermis (outer layer of skin) and cause intense discomfort after the procedure. The PICO laser treatment avoids thermal changes, resulting in less recovery time and minimal discomfort throughout the entire treatment process.
Address discoloration
on all skin tones
with PICO Genesis
Fine lines and wrinkles are some of the most pervasive aesthetic concerns, but discoloration and blemishing, such as age spots and melasma, can be equally frustrating. While there are limited options to prevent wrinkles and folds, addressing discoloration concerns is even more challenging.
Enter: PICO laser. While protective and restorative creams often fall short in treating facial discoloration, PICO Genesis by Cutera — a form of PICO laser treatment — offers a noninvasive and virtually painless solution that provides noticeable results. This advanced treatment effectively addresses discoloration, making it an invaluable option for achieving a more even and radiant complexion.
What Does PICO Genesis Treat?
PICO Genesis can treat many different conditions, including:
PICO Genesis is a versatile PICO laser treatment suitable for all skin tones and types, unlike traditional lasers that cater to a limited range of skin colors. If you have discoloration or pigmentation concerns or want to undergo tattoo removal and are looking for a noninvasive solution, PICO laser is likely ideal for you.
Your PICO Genesis experience
Getting ready for a PICO laser treatment is straightforward, as it is a noninvasive procedure. To get the best results and minimize discomfort, avoid excessive sun exposure and damage before the treatment. Additionally, refrain from using Retinols and Vitamin C for a week prior to your session.
The PICO laser treatment by Cutera itself is quick and painless, usually completed in less than 30 minutes. We will clean the treatment area and apply a topical numbing agent if needed. The medical-grade PICO Genesis device then emits pulses of laser energy across the targeted areas.
Some patients notice a subtle burning smell during the PICO laser treatment, which is caused by tiny facial hairs being singed by the concentrated light. While not intended for hair removal, this effect helps create a smoother overall appearance.
Recovery from PICO laser treatment is virtually painless and requires minimal downtime. You may experience slight redness or swelling immediately after the session, but these side effects typically subside within a day or two. Most patients can resume their daily activities right away, enjoying the benefits of their rejuvenated skin with little to no interruption.
Enhance your PICO Genesis results
To maintain and enhance the results of your PICO laser treatment, follow a recommended skincare routine. Immediately after your treatment, gently cleanse your face with a mild non-abrasive cleanser, and avoid using products containing Retinols, Vitamin C, and other harsh ingredients for at least a week. Hydration is key, so use a hydrating moisturizer, and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin from UV damage. Avoid direct sun exposure to preserve your glowing complexion.
For long-term care and maintenance, regular touch-up PICO laser treatment treatments every six to twelve months are recommended based on your skin’s condition and aesthetic goals. Incorporate a healthy lifestyle by staying hydrated, maintaining a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, and avoiding excessive sun exposure. Using high-quality skincare products tailored to your skin type will enhance and prolong the benefits of your PICO laser treatment, so your skin remains radiant and youthful over time.
How Should I Prepare for PICO Genesis?
There is no lengthy preparation process for PICO Genesis treatment, primarily because it is a noninvasive laser procedure. We do ask that you avoid excessive sun exposure and damage since it can dampen your results and lead to unnecessary discomfort — both during the therapy process and your recovery. Avoid Retinols & Vit C a week prior to treatment.
What Should I Expect from a PICO Genesis Procedure?
The entire treatment can be completed in less than 30 minutes (most patients are out within 20). The process is also extremely painless. The area of treatment will be cleaned, and a topical numbing agent may be applied if needed. Then, the medical-grade PICO Genesis device will be moved across the targeted areas, emitting pulses of laser energy into the skin.
Some patients ask about the subtle burning smell that accompanies the treatment. This odor does not come from the skin — it is the tiny hairs on the face that are being burned by concentrated light. While hair removal is not an intended effect, it does help create a smoother overall appearance throughout the fac

Frequently Asked Questions
PICO Genesis and other PICO laser treatments are suitable for all skin tones and types, making it a popular option. If you have discoloration, pigmentation, or tattoo removal concerns and seek a noninvasive solution, you are likely a good candidate for this PICO laser treatment. It’s important to have realistic expectations to ensure satisfaction with the results. Our clinicians will guide you and recommend the number of sessions needed, typically around four, spaced a month apart.
PICO Genesis stands out from other laser treatments due to its advanced technology and unique benefits. Unlike traditional lasers that rely on heat and can cause thermal damage, PICO laser uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to target pigmentation issues with precision, minimizing damage to surrounding skin. This results in less discomfort, faster recovery, and a lower risk of side effects. Additionally, PICO Genesis is effective for all skin types and tones, making it more inclusive than many conventional laser treatments. It also stimulates collagen production, enhancing overall skin texture and appearance beyond just addressing pigmentation concerns.
The number of PICO Genesis sessions required depends on your specific skin concerns and aesthetic goals. On average, most patients need around four sessions spaced a month apart. For example, if you are targeting mild discoloration or sunspots, fewer sessions might be needed.
However, more persistent issues like melasma or extensive hyperpigmentation, or if you want a tattoo removed, may require additional treatments. Our clinicians will assess your skin during your consultation and provide a personalized treatment plan to achieve the best results.
PICO laser treatments like PICO Genesis are suitable for all skin types due to their advanced laser technology, which delivers energy in ultra-short picosecond pulses. This precise delivery minimizes thermal damage and focuses specifically on pigmentation issues without affecting the surrounding skin. Unlike traditional lasers that may only work well on certain skin tones, PICO Genesis is designed to be safe and effective for a wide range of skin colors and types, ensuring comprehensive and inclusive treatment.
After your PICO laser treatment, you can expect to see a noticeable improvement in discoloration concerns throughout the face that will generally last anywhere from six months to a year. The changes take place immediately, but they will become more evident as any side effects fade. In order to maintain the best results possible, we recommend getting set up on an aesthetic treatment plan that includes periodic touch-up PICO Genesis treatments.
PICO laser treatments are known for having minimal side effects due to their noninvasive nature. Common side effects include mild redness and swelling immediately after the treatment, which typically subside within a day or two.
Some patients may also experience slight skin sensitivity or a temporary darkening of pigmented areas as the skin heals and regenerates. These effects are usually mild and short-lived. Our clinicians will provide you with post-treatment care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
The average patient can expect to pay about 2625 AED for a standard PICO laser treatment for pigmentation on the face. For tattoo removal, prices start at 1100 AED. It is worth noting that, while these prices are reasonable estimates, they can change depending on your unique conditions, aesthetic goals, and the amount of correction being performed.
