Winnetka, IL - Aesthetic Skin is proud to announce the arrival of Pico laser technology at its North Shore location in Winnetka, offering advanced skincare solutions tailored specifically for Indian and melanin-rich skin types. Led by renowned facial plastic surgeon Dr. Anil Shah, the clinic now offers one of the most sought-after laser treatments in the world—especially popular in Asia—for those struggling with hyperpigmentation, acne scars, and uneven skin tone.
For decades, Indian patients have faced limited and often ineffective options when it comes to laser treatments. Older technologies like IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) are not only less precise but can also pose serious risks for patients with deeper skin tones, such as burns, scarring, or worsening pigmentation.
“Indian skin is incredibly unique, and treating it requires a thoughtful, tailored approach,” explains Dr. Shah, who is of Indian and Italian heritage. “Unfortunately, many of the lasers commonly used in the U.S. were not designed with melanin-rich skin in mind. That’s where Pico technology stands apart.”
The Pico laser delivers ultra-short bursts of energy that break up pigment in the skin without relying on heat. This minimizes the risk of thermal damage while still being highly effective at reducing brown spots, sun damage, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation—some of the most common concerns among Indian patients. It also treats redness and vascular lesions, making it a comprehensive tool for achieving brighter, clearer skin. Patients not only love the results, but also appreciate the minimal downtime the Pico laser offers- less than 24 hours of downtime!
Dr. Shah, along with his wife Dr. Sameea Chughtai, leads a team that understands the importance of ethnically diverse care. Their experience and heritage allow them to bring both clinical expertise and cultural awareness to their patient interactions.
“Our mission is to make advanced aesthetic technology accessible to everyone, regardless of skin type or background,” says Dr. Chughtai. “With the Pico laser now available at our Winnetka office, patients don’t need to travel to Asia or major cities to receive effective, safe treatments for Indian skin.”
Aesthetic Skin’s North Shore location offers personalized consultations to help patients determine the best course of treatment for their unique skin needs.
