PicoSure Pro

PicoSure Pro

The PicoSure Pro is an advanced laser treatment system designed for skin rejuvenation, tattoo removal, and pigmentation correction. It uses picosecond laser technology, which delivers ultra-short pulses of energy to target skin concerns with minimal damage to surrounding tissue. Here’s what it does:

1. Tattoo Removal

  • Breaks down ink particles more effectively than traditional nanosecond lasers.

  • Works on stubborn colors (e.g., blues, greens) that are harder to remove with older lasers.

  • Requires fewer sessions compared to older technologies.

2. Pigmentation & Sun Spot Removal

  • Treats melasma, age spots, sun damage, and freckles by shattering pigment particles.

  • Stimulates collagen production for brighter, more even skin.

3. Acne Scar & Wrinkle Reduction

  • The FOCUS lens array (an add-on handpiece) helps improve skin texture by stimulating collagen and elastin.

  • Reduces fine lines, acne scars, and enlarged pores.

4. Skin Rejuvenation

  • Promotes a more youthful appearance by enhancing skin tone and elasticity.

  • Minimal downtime compared to ablative lasers.

Key Advantages of PicoSure Pro Over Older Lasers:

✅ Faster results (shorter treatment sessions, fewer visits).
✅ Less discomfort & downtime (gentler on the skin).
✅ Works on multiple skin tones (lower risk of hyperpigmentation).
✅ Versatile (treats tattoos, pigmentation, and skin texture).

How PicoSure Pro  Removes Pigmentation:

  1. Ultra-Short Pulses

    • Unlike traditional lasers (nanosecond lasers), Pico lasers emit energy in extremely short bursts, shattering pigment particles into tiny fragments.

    • This reduces heat buildup, lowering the risk of burns or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

  2. Photoacoustic & Photomechanical Effects

    • The rapid pulses create shockwaves that break apart melanin (pigment) clusters.

    • The body’s lymphatic system then naturally flushes out these fragmented pigment particles.

  3. Targeted Melanin Destruction

    • The laser selectively targets melanin (dark pigment) without harming surrounding skin.

  4. Stimulates Collagen & Skin Renewal

    • Pico lasers also stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and reducing uneven tone over time.

Types of Pigmentation Treated by Pico Laser:

  • Sunspots / Age spots (Solar Lentigines)

  • Melasma (though results vary; maintenance may be needed)

  • Freckles

  • Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)

  • Tattoo Pigments (Pico is also used for tattoo removal)

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

  • Light pigmentation: 1–3 sessions

  • Deeper pigmentation (melasma): 3–6+ sessions (may require combination therapy)
