A split-face trial suggests adjunct skincare may improve some picosecond-laser photoaging outcomes.
In a randomized evaluator-blinded split-face study published July 23, 2026, a 755-nm picosecond alexandrite laser improved photoaging measures, and the side assigned to a branded adjunct skincare regimen showed greater wrinkle and texture gains. It is useful signal-level evidence for peri-procedure skin support, but the single-center design, photoaging focus and company-linked regimen mean clinicians should avoid treating one post-laser routine as universally superior.
