Applications of Pico Laser Treatment
Pico laser addresses acne scars, age spots, sun spots, birthmarks, tattoo removal, pigmented lesions, dark spots, brown spots, pores and texture improvement, and skin brightening and rejuvenation.
How Does Pico Laser Work?
The treatment uses picosecond laser energy to create laser-induced breakdowns in the dermis and epidermis layers without heat, shattering targeted cells into particles naturally absorbed by the body, eliminating unwanted pigmentation.
Pico Laser vs. IPL Treatments
Pico laser uses ultra-short pulses to shatter pigments, suitable for all skin tones. IPL uses multiple wavelengths converted to heat, most effective on lighter skin tones.
Pico Laser vs. CO2 Laser Resurfacing
CO2 laser is ablative, removing skin layers with longer recovery. Pico Laser is a non-ablative method targeting damaged cells beneath the surface with minimal recovery and lower side effect risk.
Pico Laser Tattoo Removal
Pico laser removes tattoos faster than traditional methods. The laser shatters ink particles into tiny pieces that are then absorbed by your body’s natural healing processes, with reduced hyperpigmentation risk.
