      Laser technologies for acne treatment at Doctor Acnes

      Discovery Pico

      Discovery Pico is a new-generation laser system developed by Quanta System (Italy), designed with the ability to customize multiple flexible pulse modes. In the quasi-long pulse mode, the device creates a controlled photothermal effect that helps inhibit Cutibacterium acnes bacteria, reduce inflammation, unclog pores, and reduce sebaceous gland activity. As a result, the skin is improved from inflammatory acne, becomes less oily, rejuvenated, and healthier without damaging surrounding tissue.

       

      This technology also stimulates collagen production, supports skin foundation recovery, lightens post-acne dark spots, and reduces the risk of scar formation. Thanks to its ability to act deeply without causing surface damage, Discovery Pico is suitable for many skin types, including sensitive or currently inflamed skin.

       

      The device has been certified by the US FDA, European CE and ISO for safety and efficacy in dermatological treatment.
