The PicoSure Laser is the world’s first picosecond aesthetic laser platform that can be used for a variety of purposes. It can be used for acne scars, skin rejuvenation, skin pigmentation issues and tattoo removal. Traditional skin rejuvenation laser treatments use photothermal action and deliver pulses in nanoseconds.

The PicoSure Laser uses mainly photomechanical action and distributes pulses in picoseconds. In other words, the laser fires and delivers energy for an extremely short period of time. It is 1000 times faster than older lasers. These short energy bursts shatter and eliminate unwanted pigment without harming surrounding skin. Provoking a tissue reaction in the skin that leads to a reduction in pigmented skin lesions, smoothing of wrinkles, improved acne and other scars, and an increase in collagen and elastin. Leaving the skin looking brighter, smoother, and more youthful.

PicoSure® delivers ultra-short bursts of energy in picoseconds (trillionths of a second). Its advanced technology utilises less heat to treat the skin and is quicker and more effective than other laser equipment available in the market. Faster delivery means incredible results in less treatment time and less discomfort for you.

PicoSure can even out skin tone and correct textural irregularities of the skin of the face and body, all with minimal downtime.

It can also improve the appearance of a variety of benign stubborn pigmentation marks like age spots, freckles and brown patches. It is also very effective for the treatment of Nevus of Ota and melasma.

PicoSure is also an effective way to rejuvenate ageing or damaged skin, as it can promote collagen and elastin synthesis for a smoother, plumper complexion.

The Aesthetician will cleanse your skin using chlorhexidine. The larger treatment areas will be divided in quadrants using a white pencil. Dividing the area into quadrants allows laser energy to be distributed effectively and efficiently. A slight snapping sound will be heard during the treatment as the laser is passed over the treatment area. Most patients do not require topical anesthesia for this treatment. The treatment causes mild discomfort, but the pain is relieved with the cooling air system. After the treatment a cooling gel is applied followed by Sunscreen.

Overall, the PicoSure Laser will not require much downtime. We recommend avoiding strenuous activities for the first 24 hours. Make-up can be applied four hours after treatment. Following a PicoSure facial rejuvenation treatment, it is recommended to avoid sun exposure as the sun and its rays can be damaging to your face. Using sun protection at all times is recommended to avoid recurrence of the pigmentation.
