What is laser toning and how does it improve skin?
Laser toning is a low-fluence, multi-pass laser treatment that gently breaks down excess melanin and stimulates collagen production to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, our Dual Toning protocol combines two complementary lasers — PicoSure (755nm picosecond alexandrite) and Genesis (1064nm Nd:YAG) — in a single session for enhanced results with minimal downtime.
PicoSure delivers ultra-short picosecond pulses that shatter melanin particles without thermal damage Genesis uses gentle Nd:YAG heating to stimulate deep collagen and reduce redness Dual protocol treats pigmentation, pores, fine lines, and dullness simultaneously No downtime — return to daily activities immediately with a bright, glowing complexion Safe for Asian skin types with minimal risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

Your Laser Toning Treatment Process
Skin Assessment & Consultation
Your doctor examines your skin under magnification, identifying pigmentation depth, skin type, pore condition, and areas of concern. This analysis determines the optimal laser parameters for your treatment.
Facial Cleansing & Preparation
Your face is thoroughly cleansed to remove all makeup, sunscreen, and oils. This ensures optimal laser energy absorption. Topical numbing may be applied for sensitive patients, though most tolerate toning comfortably.
PicoSure Toning
The PicoSure laser delivers ultra-short picosecond pulses across the entire face. Its 755nm wavelength targets melanin with photomechanical energy, shattering pigment particles into micro-fragments that the body naturally eliminates. Multiple passes ensure even coverage.
Genesis Laser Treatment
The Genesis Nd:YAG laser is applied with its characteristic warm, comfortable sensation. Operating at 1064nm, it gently heats the deep dermis to stimulate collagen production, reduce diffuse redness, and refine pore size.
Post-Treatment Care
A soothing mask or serum is applied to calm the skin. Your doctor provides aftercare instructions emphasizing sun protection. Your next session is scheduled based on your treatment plan.
Laser Toning Results Over Time
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Immediately After | Skin appears brighter and more radiant. Mild pinkness may be present for 1–2 hours. Many patients describe an immediate ‘glass skin’ effect. |
| Days 1–3 | Some dark spots may darken slightly before flaking off — this is a positive sign that pigment is being eliminated. Keep skin moisturized and protected from sun. |
| Week 1–2 | Skin tone becomes noticeably more even. Superficial pigmentation begins to fade. Pores may appear slightly refined. |
| Sessions 3–5 | With each session, pigmentation continues to lighten, skin texture improves, and pore size reduces. Collagen stimulation from Genesis produces a firmer, more youthful texture. |
| Sessions 5–8 | Most patients achieve their desired brightness and evenness by 5–8 sessions. Deep pigmentation and stubborn melasma may require continued treatment. |
| Maintenance | Monthly or bi-monthly maintenance sessions keep pigmentation at bay and maintain the collagen-boosting benefits. This is especially important for patients prone to melasma recurrence. |

The Science Behind Dual Laser Toning
Patient Reviews of Laser Toning
“I had stubborn sun spots from years of not using sunscreen. After 5 sessions of Dual Toning, my skin is the clearest it has been in a decade. The first-visit price made it easy to try, and I was hooked after seeing results from session one.”
“As someone with very fair skin prone to redness, the Genesis laser was a game-changer for me. Combined with PicoSure for my freckles, my skin tone is now completely even. The treatment was painless — just a warm sensation.”
“I visit RE:BERRY Myeongdong every month for maintenance toning. My pores have visibly shrunk and my skin has this constant glow that people always comment on. Dr. Son adjusts the settings each time based on how my skin looks.”
Frequently Asked Questions About Laser Toning
Laser toning is a low-energy, multi-pass laser treatment that gently breaks down melanin pigment and stimulates collagen production. It’s one of the most popular skin brightening and tone-correcting treatments in Korea, known for producing ‘glass skin’ results.
Laser toning effectively treats pigmentation (sun spots, age spots, freckles), uneven skin tone, dullness, enlarged pores, mild acne scars, fine lines, and diffuse redness. It is also used as a maintenance treatment for melasma management.
Yes. PicoSure’s picosecond technology is specifically designed to minimize thermal damage, making it very safe for Asian skin types (Fitzpatrick III-V). The risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is significantly lower compared to older nanosecond lasers.
Laser toning is generally very comfortable. PicoSure feels like tiny rubber band snaps, and Genesis produces a warm, spa-like sensation. Most patients find the treatment relaxing. No numbing is typically required.
A single PicoSure session takes about 15 minutes. Dual Toning (PicoSure + Genesis) takes approximately 30 minutes. Including consultation and aftercare, expect about 45–60 minutes total.
Most patients see noticeable improvement after 3 sessions. For optimal results, we recommend 5–8 sessions at 2–4 week intervals, followed by monthly maintenance. Stubborn pigmentation or melasma may require more sessions.
You will notice an immediate glow and brightness after your first session. Cumulative improvement in pigmentation, pore size, and skin texture develops over 3–8 sessions. Each session builds on the previous one.
Glass skin refers to a complexion that is poreless, luminous, and translucent-looking — as if lit from within. Regular laser toning sessions help achieve this effect by minimizing pores, evening out skin tone, and boosting collagen for plump, reflective skin.
Results are cumulative and long-lasting with maintenance. Without maintenance, pigmentation may gradually return over 3–6 months due to sun exposure and natural melanin production. Monthly maintenance sessions keep results optimal.
There is no downtime. You may have mild pinkness for 1–2 hours after treatment. You can apply makeup and return to all normal activities immediately.
Sun protection is essential — apply SPF 50+ sunscreen daily and reapply every 2–3 hours when outdoors. Keep skin moisturized and avoid harsh exfoliants for 48 hours. No saunas or excessive heat for 24 hours.
Side effects are minimal and temporary. Mild redness lasting 1–2 hours is the most common. Some patients notice slight darkening of pigmented spots before they flake off — this is normal and indicates the treatment is working.
Yes, with modifications. Genesis laser has anti-inflammatory properties that can actually help acne. Your doctor will adjust PicoSure settings to avoid active lesions. For severe cystic acne, we may recommend treating the acne first.
PicoSure Toning starts at ₩159,000 for first-visit patients (one-time trial). The Dual Toning Package (PicoSure + Genesis) is ₩259,000 per session. All prices are VAT-exclusive.
Yes, the ₩159,000 is a one-time trial price for new patients visiting RE:BERRY Myeongdong for the first time. It includes a single full-face PicoSure toning session with consultation and aftercare.
Yes, we offer multi-session packages at discounted rates. Contact us via WhatsApp for current package pricing and availability. Treatment plans are customized to your skin’s needs.
PicoSure delivers energy in picoseconds (trillionths of a second) versus nanoseconds for traditional Q-switched lasers. This 100x shorter pulse duration creates a photomechanical rather than photothermal effect, shattering melanin more efficiently with less heat damage and lower risk of rebound hyperpigmentation.
Laser toning targets deeper pigmentation with no peeling or downtime, making it more effective for stubborn spots and safe for regular maintenance. Chemical peels work on the surface and require 3–7 days of peeling. Laser toning is generally preferred for Asian skin types due to lower PIH risk.
No, laser toning complements your skincare routine. You still need daily SPF, moisturizer, and gentle cleansing. However, laser toning can dramatically boost the effectiveness of your routine by treating concerns that topical products alone cannot address.
Absolutely. Popular combinations include laser toning + skin boosters (Juvelook, Rejuran) for hydration and glow, laser toning + Potenza for pore treatment, and laser toning + lifting treatments for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Mild treatments like skin boosters can often be done in the same session. For more intensive procedures (deep peels, ablative lasers), we recommend waiting 2–4 weeks. Your doctor will advise on optimal treatment spacing.
Yes, laser toning is perfect for visitors. Each session takes only 30–45 minutes with zero downtime. You can schedule multiple sessions during your trip if you’re staying for a week or more. We recommend starting on day one of your visit.
