Why the Pico Laser Didn’t Work (Part 1)

When pigmentation doesn’t improve after a Pico Laser treatment, it’s easy to assume the machine “doesn’t work.” In reality, the outcome depends on multiple factors.

Pico Lasers operate at different wavelengths — 532 nm, 755 nm, and 1064 nm — each reaching different skin depths and targeting pigment in a specific way. The laser itself is only a tool; achieving results requires selecting the right wavelength, power, and technique for your individual pigmentation type.

Patient-specific factors also play a role: sun exposure, treatment consistency, and the nature of the pigmentation all affect results. Some pigment responds quickly, while a small percentage is naturally more resistant.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Thean explains why Pico Laser results can vary — and why the doctor’s expertise, rather than the device alone, determines whether pigmentation truly improves.

What Are Those Dark Patches on My Skin?

Dark patches, or hyperpigmentation, can develop for several reasons, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, inflammation, or minor skin injuries. Correctly identifying the type of pigmentation is the first step toward effective treatment.

Common types include:
• Melasma – Brown or gray-brown patches on the cheeks, forehead, jawline, or upper lip.
• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) – Dark marks left after acne, irritation, or minor skin trauma.
• Sunspots – Well-defined brown patches caused by years of UV exposure.
• Freckles – Small, light-brown spots that darken with sun exposure and fade with protection.

Some deeper factors, such as ongoing inflammation, vascular changes, or basement membrane damage, can make pigmentation more persistent or prone to recurrence.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Daniel explains why identifying your pigmentation type is important — and how targeted treatments, from topical formulations to lasers, can safely and effectively manage and improve dark patches over time.

Why Acne Scars Aren’t Improving (Part 1)

Acne scars are one of the most challenging conditions to treat because each patient has a unique combination of scar types, depths, and severities. It’s common to feel discouraged when results aren’t immediate, but slow and steady progress is completely normal.

Many moderate to severe scars are tethered by dense fibrous bands that pull the skin downward. These structures cannot be released instantly — they require repeated treatments to gradually break down and remodel. Meaningful improvement depends on collagen remodeling, a natural biological process. After each treatment, the skin needs several months to regenerate new collagen, reorganise old scar tissue, and rebuild a smoother structure. This is why visible changes typically develop over 6–9 months, not within days or weeks.

Patience, consistency, and a structured treatment plan are crucial for achieving real, lasting improvement. 🎥 In this video, Dr. Chiam explains why acne scar treatments take time and what to expect throughout the healing and remodeling process.

How Quickly Can Pigmentation Be Removed?

The speed of improvement depends on the type of pigmentation, its depth, and how consistently it is treated.

• Superficial pigment — freckles, sunspots, and PIH — generally clears faster as it sits closer to the skin surface.
• Deeper or mixed pigment — such as dermal pigmentation and melasma — takes longer and often requires a more controlled, layered approach.

Medical lasers help accelerate clearance by targeting pigment more efficiently than topical products alone. Different laser settings allow us to address both surface-level and deeper pigment safely, with results building gradually over a series of sessions.For mild or sensitive-skin cases, gentler options like light peels and topical brightening agents are effective, though improvements take several weeks to months.

Other factors — such as UV exposure, hormones, heat, and daily skincare habits — also influence how quickly pigment fades. Consistent sun protection is essential for maintaining results.🎥 In this video, Dr. Lennard explains realistic treatment timelines and why many patients begin to see noticeable improvement within 1–2 months when their plan is consistent, personalised, and medically guided

Caveman Facials — Should You Try Them? 🤔

The “caveman facial” is based on the idea that modern skincare routines disrupt the skin’s natural balance. Proponents suggest that by skipping cleansing, the skin can “self-regulate,” retain moisture, and strengthen its barrier.

The reality: while avoiding harsh products is beneficial, completely skipping cleansing allows dirt, bacteria, and dead skin to accumulate. This increases the risk of breakouts, irritation, and slowed skin renewal—particularly in hot, humid environments.

Prolonged avoidance of cleansing can result in:
• Bacterial and fungal overgrowth
• Clogged pores and acne flare-ups
• Increased irritation from sweat, pollutants, and debris
• Excess dead skin that disrupts normal cell turnover and barrier function

In climates like Singapore, these issues are even more pronounced. In this video, Dr. Chiam explains why modern skin requires consistent care — and why the caveman approach may do more harm than good.

Why Creams Don’t Work 🧴

Patients often ask why their pigmentation creams seem to “stop working.” In most cases, the limitation lies not in the product itself, but in the complexity and severity of the underlying condition.

Melasma is multifactorial, involving:
• Excess melanin production
• Chronic inflammation
• Basement membrane disruption
• Increased vascular activity

Topical medical creams — such as hydroquinone, retinoids, and corticosteroids — can address some of these pathways, but their effect is inherently limited when the disease process is deeper or more advanced. For moderate to severe melasma, topicals alone are insufficient. Treatment typically requires a combined approach involving energy-based devices, oral medications, and ongoing maintenance treatment or skincare to achieve stable, long-term control.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Thean discusses why creams may provide partial improvement, but certain conditions simply require more comprehensive intervention.

Will My Pigmentation Come Back Worse?

Almost every patient with pigmentation asks this — not because they’re worried about the skin… but because they’re tired. Tired of the cycle: lighten, darken, repeat. Here’s the truth: pigmentation doesn’t suddenly return “worse.” It only reappears when something triggers it — sunlight, hormones, inflammation, stress, heat.

Think of it like a sensitive alarm system. When the environment is calm, the alarm stays quiet. When the trigger hits, it activates again. Your treatment clears the pigment. Your maintenance routine keeps the triggers under control.

In this video, Dr. Daniel explains that with the right plan — a stable routine, sun protection, and consistent follow-up — you can keep pigmentation from coming back as quickly, and in many cases, prevent it from worsening.

How RF Microneedling Helps with Melasma 🌤️

Melasma isn’t just about pigment — it’s also influenced by inflammation, vascular activity, and structural changes in the skin.

RF Microneedling combines tiny needles with radiofrequency energy to deliver controlled heat into deeper layers, helping to:
• Remodel collagen and strengthen the basement membrane, preventing pigment from migrating deeper.
• Reduce inflammation that triggers pigment formation.
• Address vascular activity that can overstimulate pigment cells.
• Improve skin texture and tone, enhancing the effects of brightening treatments.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Daniel explains how RF Microneedling supports melasma management by targeting the underlying structural and inflammatory causes — safely and effectively.

Are Hyaluronic Acid Fillers and Skin Boosters the Same? (Part 2) 💉

Although both contain hyaluronic acid, fillers and skin boosters are engineered very differently.

Dermal fillers are designed for deeper injection — onto the bone or within fat pads — to restore structure, lift, and contour the face. They contain binding agents that make the gel thicker, longer-lasting, and more resistant to breakdown by natural enzymes.

Because of this, using filler in the wrong layer — like the skin’s surface — can lead to visible lumps or uneven texture. Each form of hyaluronic acid, whether in serums, skin boosters, or fillers, serves a distinct purpose. Choosing the right one depends on your desired outcome and where it’s placed.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Chiam explains how the formulation and placement of each product determine its results and safety.

Are Hyaluronic Acid Fillers and Skin Boosters the Same? (Part 1) 💧

While both fillers and skin boosters are made of hyaluronic acid, they’re designed for different purposes.

Skin boosters are injected into the superficial layers of the skin to improve hydration, texture, and overall skin quality. They’re softer and smoother in consistency — formulated without binding agents to avoid bumps or granulomas.

Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are injected deeper to restore volume, contour the face, or correct hollowness. Because of this, their texture and structure are thicker and more gel-like.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Chiam explains how both treatments work differently despite sharing the same ingredient — and how choosing the right one depends on your skin goals.

Can Vampire Facials (PRP) Treat Pigmentation?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), also known as “vampire facials,” uses a patient’s own platelets to support healing and collagen production. While PRP can improve skin texture and recovery, it is not an approved or effective treatment for pigmentation in Singapore.

For dark spots, melasma, or uneven skin tone, laser treatments are the standard approach. Pico Laser delivers ultra-short bursts of energy to break pigment into microscopic fragments, which the body clears naturally. In cases of more persistent or mixed pigmentation, lasers may be combined with other energy-based modalities to address multiple layers of pigment and achieve more uniform results.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Thean explains why PRP is not suitable for pigmentation and how combination laser approaches work to improve skin tone safely and effectively.

Do Oral Supplements Help With Pigmentation? (Part 2) 💊✨

Oral supplements can complement pigmentation management, but they are most effective when integrated into a comprehensive treatment plan. Their role is supportive — enhancing skin resilience, reducing oxidative stress, and improving treatment outcomes when combined with professional care.

Common oral agents include:
1) Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Strengthens the skin barrier, reduces inflammation, and helps regulate uneven melanin distribution.
2) Antioxidants (such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Polypodium leucotomos): Neutralize free radicals and protect against UV and blue light–induced oxidative damage that can aggravate pigmentation.

Supplements should not be used as standalone therapy. They yield the best results when paired with:
1) Energy-based procedures (e.g., lasers, RF microneedling) to address pigment at deeper layers.
2) Topical pigment-control formulations targeting melanin synthesis pathways.
3) Consistent photoprotection using broad-spectrum SPF 50+, PA++++ sunscreen daily.

Improvement is gradual and depends on factors such as the cause, depth, and chronicity of pigmentation, as well as individual skin response.
🎥 In this video, Dr. Lennard explains how oral supplements can enhance treatment outcomes, their mechanisms of action, and the importance of a customized, medically supervised approach for sustained pigment control.
