PicoSure Skin Revitalization PicoSure can help treat the appearance of acne scars, pigmentation, brown spots, wrinkles, fine lines and renews deep layers of the skin to even out skin texture. The laser triggers the body’s natural healing response which produces elastin and collagen. Downtime There is about 2-3 days of downtime post-treatment. On average, you will need 2-3 sessions for optimal results, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. |
PicoSure is an innovative skin treatment that uses laser pulses that last just one picosecond (that’s one trillionth of a second!) to target problem areas on your skin.
The laser operates at a single wavelength of 755nm and these ultra-short pulses create a photomechanical impact that breaks down pigmentation and stimulates your skin’s natural healing process.
The result? A smoother, more even skin tone, and a youthful, radiant glow!
The magic of PicoSure lies in its ability to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. When the laser is applied, it prompts the release of certain proteins. These proteins, in turn, signal the surrounding cells to ramp up their production of collagen and elastin, two key components for youthful, healthy skin.
At the same time, PicoSure’s advanced technology works on a microscopic level to break down skin pigments. It transforms these pigments into microscopic particles. These particles are then naturally processed and eliminated by the skin, leading to a clearer, brighter complexion.
After a PicoSure treatment, you can expect some redness and swelling, which should subside within a few days.
You’ll start to see improvements in your skin after a few weeks, with full results visible after a few months.
While PicoSure is a non-invasive skin care treatment with minimal risks, some people may experience temporary redness or swelling post-treatment. These side effects usually subside within a few hours of the treatment.
In rarer cases, there is a small risk of infection, hyperpigmentation, or hypopigmentaiton. However, our team takes every precaution to minimize these risks, and by following our aftercare instructions, you can ensure optimal results without any adverse effects.
