Skin Rejuvenation
Skin rejuvenation spans maintenance through advanced remodeling: PicoFusion™ for recurring skin-quality work, PicoMatrix™ for advanced remodeling, DPL Elite for tone, and Alexa CO₂ for deeper resurfacing.

Overview
What laser equipment does a clinic need for skin rejuvenation?
A range rather than a single device: PicoFusion™ and PicoMatrix™ on the Pro 1 Pico for recurring skin-quality work and advanced remodeling, DPL Elite for tone, pigment and redness, and Alexa CO₂ for deeper resurfacing. That range lets one practice match energy and recovery time to each patient’s goals instead of forcing everyone into the same facial.
Why isn’t skin rejuvenation one treatment?
Because patients’ concerns do not all need the same energy or the same recovery time. They may use the same words — glow, texture, pores, fine lines, sun damage, scarring — but the underlying problems differ.
That is why Pro 1 Laser treats rejuvenation as a technology ladder, not a single facial.
What is PicoFusion™ used for?
On the Pro 1 Pico, PicoFusion™ is the maintenance-oriented pathway. Rapid picosecond pulse stacking supports broader dermal stimulation for patients focused on glow, pores, fine lines, and ongoing skin quality without stepping immediately into a more intensive fractional treatment.
For clinics, this is the recurring side of the rejuvenation menu — the type of treatment that can sit naturally inside annual plans, memberships, and maintenance programs.
When does PicoMatrix™ take over?
When the treatment goal moves from general maintenance into more focused structural remodeling, PicoMatrix™ takes over.
The dedicated advanced remodeling handpiece supports targeted remodeling protocols for pores, scars, stretch marks, under-eye rejuvenation and advanced skin-quality treatments.
That makes PicoMatrix™ especially relevant for:
- acne scars and post-acne texture
- enlarged pores
- uneven texture
- fine lines
- advanced non-ablative rejuvenation
Where does DPL Elite fit in skin rejuvenation?
DPL Elite approaches rejuvenation from another direction. Its filtered light platform supports large-area treatment of pigmentation, redness, uneven tone, and other photodamage-related concerns.
For the patient whose skin-quality problem is as much about colour and vascularity as texture, DPL adds an important layer to the treatment plan.
When is Alexa CO₂ resurfacing the right step?
For more advanced texture, photodamage, and resurfacing goals, Alexa CO₂ Aesthetic gives the practice an ablative fractional option.
That creates a clear treatment spectrum: from recurring low-downtime maintenance, through PicoMatrix™ fractional remodeling, to deeper CO₂ resurfacing when the treatment objective warrants it.
Why build a rejuvenation menu instead of selling one facial?
The commercial advantage is range. One clinic can offer entry-level skin-quality treatments, corrective pigment and redness work, focused scar and texture remodeling, and deeper resurfacing without forcing every patient into the same protocol.
That is a much stronger rejuvenation business than a single-device, single-treatment approach.
For how that range maps to a specific practice type, see laser equipment for med spas and laser equipment for plastic surgery.
FAQs
What is PicoMatrix™ used for in skin rejuvenation?
PicoMatrix™ is the Pro 1 Pico advanced remodeling handpiece. It supports targeted remodeling protocols for acne scars, pores, uneven texture, fine lines, and advanced skin-quality concerns.
How is PicoMatrix™ different from PicoFusion™?
PicoFusion™ is designed for broader, repeatable dermal stimulation and maintenance-style skin-quality treatments. PicoMatrix™ is the more focused fractional pathway for texture, pores, scars, and advanced remodeling.
When would a clinic choose Alexa CO₂ instead?
Alexa fractional CO₂ is the deeper resurfacing option when the treatment goal calls for a more intensive ablative approach and the patient accepts a longer recovery period.
Can these technologies be combined into a treatment plan?
Yes. Practices can build treatment plans that move between maintenance, pigment and redness correction, fractional remodeling, and deeper resurfacing depending on patient goals and recovery tolerance.
