To assess the efficacy of a 1064nm picosecond laser (PicoWay; Candela; Marlborough, MA) with diffractive lens array and a picosecond 755nm laser (PicoSure®; Cynosure®; Westford, MA) with diffractive lens array in subjects for the improvement of facial skin quality. Secondary objectives of this clinical trial are to assess whether the 1064nm or 755nm picosecond laser is more efficacious in improving facial skin quality, safety of the procedure, comfortability of the procedure, and subject satisfaction.

subject will be randomized to have either their right facial half or left facial half treated with the 1064nm picosecond laser with diffractive lens array. The contralateral facial half not randomized will be treated with the 755nm picosecond laser with diffractive lens array. Subjects will receive three (3) treatments, four (4) weeks ± 7 days apart to each facial half.

For additional comfort, cold air cooling (Zimmer MedizinSystems, Irvine, CA) set on level 5 will be used throughout the treatment. After each treatment, subjects will be provided with CeraVe gentle facial cleanser (CeraVe; New York, NY) and CeraVe lotion (CeraVe; New York, NY) to be used twice daily for two weeks. Additionally, a mineral CeraVe sunscreen (CeraVe; New York, NY) will also be provided to subjects to be used every morning with reapplication every two (2) hours if going outside for the entirety of the study.
