Who this page is for
Aesthetic lasers cover many different devices and indications. This page helps you orient yourself before consultation — your doctor will recommend what is actually appropriate for your skin.
Searching for pico laser near you
Looking for doctor-led pico laser treatment in Johor Bahru, Iskandar Puteri, or within easy reach from Singapore.
Researching pigmentation lasers
Considering pico or pigment-specific lasers for melasma, dark spots, sun damage, or post-inflammatory pigmentation.
Comparing pico laser cost
Weighing what pico laser treatment involves and what affects the cost before committing — we explain the plan first.
Exploring acne scar resurfacing
Looking into CO₂ fractional laser or other resurfacing approaches for atrophic, rolling, or boxcar scars.
Skin texture and tone
Open pores, dull texture, or uneven tone where a tailored laser plan may form part of a broader skin-quality programme.
Maintenance and prevention
Existing skin in reasonable condition with maintenance goals — a laser is just one tool, and your doctor may suggest non-laser options instead.
— What this involves
How aesthetic lasers fit into a treatment plan
There is no single 'laser treatment' — different wavelengths and delivery modes target different skin layers. CO₂ fractional lasers focus on texture and atrophic scars; pico lasers focus on pigmentation; longer-wavelength devices may target vascular or deeper concerns.
Suitability depends on your skin type, current condition, lifestyle, downtime tolerance, and goals. Your doctor will assess whether a laser is the right starting point, or whether other approaches — such as chemical peels, RF microneedling, or simply medical-grade topicals — may serve you better.
All laser planning at DrPlus is consultation-led. We avoid one-size-fits-all packages because the best result usually comes from sequencing the right device, settings, and aftercare around your specific skin.
Pico (picosecond) laser is one of the most requested treatments here, most often for sun spots, uneven tone and selected melasma cases under a cautious protocol. Because it deposits relatively little heat, it can be a considered option for the deeper skin tones common across Johor Bahru — when settings are matched carefully to your skin. Our Iskandar Puteri clinic is easy to reach for patients across JB and from Singapore.

It is convenient for patients across Johor Bahru and within easy reach for those travelling from Singapore. You can book privately and discuss suitability without committing to treatment on the day.
There is no single fixed price, because the cost depends on the area treated, the number of sessions your concern needs, the pigment type and the settings involved. We prefer to assess your skin and explain the plan first, then give you an accurate, personalised estimate at consultation.
Pico (picosecond) lasers are commonly used for sun-related dark spots and certain melasma cases, but there is no single 'best' laser — suitability depends on pigment type, depth, skin tone and hormonal factors. Your doctor will confirm whether pico is the right starting point after assessment.
It can be, when settings, device choice and treatment frequency are matched to your skin tone. The main risk on deeper skin is post-inflammatory pigmentation, which is why cautious, doctor-led planning matters — especially for melasma.
Pigment work is usually a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart. The exact number depends on your pigment type, depth and how your skin responds — your doctor will share a realistic estimate during consultation. Results vary by individual.
Pico pigment-toning sessions often have minimal downtime, with mild redness for a few hours and possible temporary darkening of spots before they fade. More intense settings may involve a few days of recovery. Your doctor will explain what to expect before any session.
Most side effects are mild and short-lived — redness, warmth, mild swelling and temporary darkening of treated pigment. The main concern on darker skin is post-inflammatory pigmentation, which is reduced by appropriate settings, sun protection and aftercare. Your doctor will discuss the risks relevant to your skin.
Pigment fading is gradual across a series. Some people notice changes within the first few sessions; others need most of the course before improvement is obvious. Daily sun protection materially influences how durable the result is.
Pico laser can help some melasma when used cautiously, as low-energy toning within a broader plan of sun protection and topicals. It is not a cure and not every melasma case is suitable for laser, because aggressive treatment can cause rebound. Your doctor will advise honestly whether laser is wise for your case.
