Long Pulse & Picosecond Laser Clinical Report: Real Patient Results
This clinical report features eight real patient cases, ages 22-56, treated with 1064nm Long Pulse and Picosecond laser technology for spider veins, hair removal, pigmentation, freckles, benign pigmented lesions, and eyebrow tattoo correction. Most cases showed visible improvement after a single treatment session, with before-and-after images documenting the results. Below is a plain-language breakdown of each case, with the full original report available to download at the end.
About This Report
This report was compiled by the device's clinical team and presents individual clinical case reports, including each patient's concern, treatment parameters, and observed outcome. The cases demonstrate the use of 1064nm Long Pulse and 532nm/1064nm Picosecond laser technologies, the same professional laser systems featured in our aesthetic laser collection.
The Case Studies
Case Study 1: Red/Spider Veins Removal
Patient: Female, 22
Skin concerns: Sensitive skin with telangiectasia (visible red veins) on the cheeks.
Treatment: 1064nm long pulse laser using Single Mode, with the handpiece applied in direct contact with the skin. One session.
Result: Superficial red veins faded immediately, while deeper blood vessels coagulated and gradually cleared as they were naturally absorbed by the body. Mild redness and swelling occurred after treatment, with a 40–60 minute ice compress recommended to support recovery.

Case Study 2: Red/Spider Veins Removal
Patient: Female, 25
Skin concerns: Red and spider veins on the sides of the nose.
Treatment: 1064nm long pulse laser using Single Mode, with the handpiece applied in direct contact with the skin. One session.
Result: Superficial red and spider veins faded immediately, while deeper vessels coagulated and gradually cleared as they were naturally absorbed by the body. Mild redness occurred after treatment, and a 1–2 hour ice compress was recommended to promote recovery and minimize heat-related side effects.

Case Study 3: Red/Spider Veins Removal
Patient: Female, 24
Skin concerns: Red and spider veins on the sides of the nose.
Treatment: 1064nm long pulse laser using Single Mode, with the handpiece applied in direct contact with the skin. One session.
Result: Superficial red and spider veins were visibly reduced immediately, while deeper vessels gradually faded as they were naturally absorbed by the body. Mild redness occurred after treatment, and a 1–2 hour ice compress was recommended to support recovery and minimize heat-related side effects.

Case Study 4: Hair Removal
Patient: Female, 27
Concerns: Thick upper lip hair.
Treatment: 1064nm long pulse laser using Multi Mode for upper lip hair removal. Recommended 1–2 treatment sessions.
Result: Upper lip hair was visibly reduced, with finer and slower regrowth after treatment. Mild redness and temporary swelling around the hair follicles occurred immediately after treatment. A 30-minute ice compress was recommended, along with avoiding water exposure to the treated area for 24 hours.

Case Study 5: Nevus Removal
Patient: Female, 32
Skin concerns: Pigmented facial nevus (mole).
Treatment: 1064nm picosecond laser targeting the pigmented nevus (2–3 passes). One session.
Result: The superficial pigmentation of the nevus was visibly lightened, improving its overall appearance. Mild redness, pinpoint bleeding, and temporary skin disruption occurred immediately after treatment as part of the normal healing process. Deeper nevi may require additional CO2 laser treatment for complete removal.

Case Study 6: Pigment Spot Removal
Patient: Female, 56
Skin concerns: Sunspots, freckles, and uneven pigmentation.
Treatment: 1064nm picosecond laser targeting epidermal pigment spots (2–3 passes). One session.
Result: Sunspots and freckles were visibly faded, with a brighter and more even skin tone. Temporary whitening of the treated spots, mild redness, and slight pinpoint bleeding occurred immediately after treatment as part of the normal healing process, followed by gradual fading during recovery.

Case Study 7: Red Eyebrow Tattoo Color Change
Patient: Female, 23
Skin concerns: Faded eyebrow tattoo with residual red pigment.
Treatment: 532nm picosecond laser targeting the red eyebrow tattoo pigment (1–2 passes). One session.
Result: The red tattoo pigment responded immediately, turning darker as it fragmented for natural clearance. This marked the beginning of the fading process, with gradual lightening expected over the following weeks. Mild temporary skin redness occurred after treatment, and an ice compress was recommended to support recovery.

Case Study 7: Red Eyebrow Tattoo Color Change
Patient: Female, 46
Skin concerns: Faded eyebrow tattoo with residual red pigment.
Treatment: 532nm picosecond laser targeting the red eyebrow tattoo pigment (1–2 passes). One session.
Result: The residual red pigment responded immediately, darkening as the laser fragmented the ink for gradual removal by the body. Mild temporary redness occurred after treatment, and an ice compress was recommended to support recovery.

Key Takeaways Across All Eight Cases
Versatile treatment applications. Long Pulse and Picosecond lasers effectively treated spider veins, hair removal, pigmentation, freckles, epidermal nevi, and eyebrow tattoo correction.
Predictable recovery. Mild redness, swelling, or temporary skin changes were expected immediately after treatment and resolved as the skin healed.
Targeted laser technology. 1064nm Long Pulse addressed vascular lesions and hair removal, while 1064nm and 532nm Picosecond targeted pigmented lesions and tattoo pigment with precision.
Suitable for a wide range of patients. The cases included patients 22–56 years old, demonstrating consistent results across different cosmetic concerns.
Aftercare Notes From the Clinical Team
Mild redness and swelling are normal after treatment.
Apply an ice compress immediately after treatment to reduce heat and discomfort.
After hair removal, avoid water on the treated area for 24 hours.
What This Means for You
These clinical cases demonstrate how Long Pulse and Picosecond laser technologies can treat vascular lesions, unwanted hair, pigmentation, and tattoo discoloration with predictable outcomes and minimal downtime. While results vary by patient, the cases provide a realistic example of the effectiveness of these technologies in clinical practice.
