FAQ

Questions patients
always ask Dr. Deepika

Yes โ€” and this is precisely why Dr. Deepika uses PICO Laser over older Q-switched lasers. Its picosecond pulse duration generates far less heat, dramatically reducing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation that darker Indian skin (Fitzpatrick IIIโ€“VI) is prone to. Settings are individually calibrated for each patient's skin tone and concern.
It depends on the type and depth of your pigmentation. Superficial sun spots may respond in 2โ€“3 sessions. Melasma, which is hormonally driven and deeper, typically requires 4โ€“6 sessions with a maintenance protocol. Dr. Deepika will give you a realistic, honest estimate after your initial skin assessment.
PICO Laser has minimal downtime โ€” mild redness that resolves in a few hours. Superficial chemical peels cause 2โ€“3 days of gentle flaking. Medium-depth peels may involve 5โ€“7 days of visible peeling. Dr. Deepika will explain exactly what to expect based on the specific treatment chosen for you.
Yes โ€” and for many patients, combining both delivers superior results. Chemical peels prime the skin surface while PICO Laser targets deeper pigment deposits. Dr. Deepika will advise whether a combination protocol is right for your skin and goals.
Treatments effectively clear existing pigmentation. However, without sun protection and maintenance (especially for melasma), pigmentation can recur over time. Dr. Deepika provides a detailed post-treatment care and maintenance plan for every patient so results last as long as possible.
