01
Straight answer
Do you have PicoPlus in Busan?
No.
PicoPlus (Lutronic) is a picosecond laser with 1064, 532 and two dye-assisted wavelengths, built for power: stubborn pigment, multi-colour tattoo and a fractional handpiece for texture. At Boom Dermatology the picosecond toning and spot work run on Picolo
and PicoHi
at ₩165,000, their fractional handpieces cover the fractional pico mode at ₩275,000 to ₩330,000, and Helios Z
brings higher power for the pigment that has plateaued. Multi-colour tattoo removal, the one PicoPlus job we do not replace, is referred.

Choose
Which PicoPlus alternative is right for you?
Patients who ask for PicoPlus by name want one of these; each has a device at Boom Dermatology. The consultation at our Seomyeon skin clinic is free when you proceed.
Freckles and defined spots
Picosecond on the spots, 532 nm targeted, over three to five sessions.
Three reasons, stated without hype in either direction.
Two picosecond platforms
Picolo and PicoHi deliver the picosecond 1064 and 532 nm passes a PicoPlus toning or spot session uses.
Fractional covered
Picolo Fraxel and PicoHi Fraxel are the fractional pico passes for texture and pores, at ₩275,000 to ₩330,000.
No tattoo work
The extra wavelengths on PicoPlus are for coloured ink; we do not sell tattoo removal and refer it.
04

Review

Questions, answered properly
My spots have not moved despite months of toning. What now?
A re-read first: a spot that ignores toning is sometimes melasma, sometimes a lesion that wants removal rather than lightening, sometimes consolidated pigment that needs picosecond power. At Boom Dermatology the photo and a close look decide, then Picolo or Helios Z takes over for consolidated spots, and nothing is repeated that has already failed.
How many sessions does tattoo removal honestly take?
Six to twelve on any platform, more for coloured ink, with months between. We do not offer it; a clinic set up for tattoo work will serve you better than a skin clinic fitting ink between toning sessions, and we say so plainly.
Is high-power pico safe on melasma, or will it rebound?
High power on melasma risks rebound on every platform. Melasma at our Seomyeon skin clinic gets the lowest-fluence protocol with Sylfirm X and sunscreen; picosecond is used on it only at gentle settings, never at the energies a stubborn freckle gets.
What is the fractional pico mode for?
Texture, pores and shallow scars: the picosecond pulses are focused into micro-zones under an intact surface, with one to two days of redness. PicoHi Fraxel and Picolo Fraxel are the same idea at Boom Dermatology in Busan, and pair with toning in the same visit.
PicoPlus or Picolo: is the extra power worth it?
For coloured tattoo, PicoPlus; for pigment on skin, the power that matters is the fluence the doctor can safely use on your skin type, and that ceiling is the same on either machine. A Korean picosecond platform at ₩165,000 reaches it.
