Pico Genesis
At Seaside Skin Care, we believe your skin should reflect how you feel, radiant, refreshed, and confident. That’s why we’re proud to offer one of the most advanced laser technologies available today: Pico Genesis. This powerful, non-invasive treatment gently revitalizes the skin, delivering transformative results without the harsh side effects or lengthy recovery of traditional lasers.
Pico Genesis in Orange County, CA
What sets Pico Genesis apart is its use of ultra-short laser pulses combined with two highly effective wavelengths. Unlike traditional lasers that rely on intense heat, Pico targets pigment beneath the surface without harming the surrounding tissue. The result? A clearer, more even complexion and visibly brighter skin, achieved in fewer sessions and with minimal downtime.
Whether you’re dealing with sun damage, melasma, unwanted freckles, or uneven tone, Pico Genesis breaks apart unwanted pigment while also stimulating collagen and elastin for overall skin rejuvenation. It’s ideal for patients looking to treat:
Hyperpigmentation and melasma
Uneven skin tone and texture
Dull, tired-looking skin
Early signs of aging
Acne scars or other pigmentation irregularities
pigment issues, be gone!
Most clients experience only a slight warmth or redness immediately after treatment, which fades quickly. You can return to your daily activities almost immediately, making this a perfect lunchtime treatment for our on-the-go Orange County community.
At Seaside, every Pico Genesis session is delivered by our highly trained providers, who tailor each treatment to your unique skin type and goals. We’re here to support your journey toward skin that looks and feels as healthy and vibrant as you are.
