How PicoSure Pro Works
- Breaks down pigmentation: The pico laser delivers fast pulses to fragment pigment particles such as melasma, freckles, and sun spots into smaller particles without overheating surrounding skin.
- Gradually clears pigment: These fragmented pigment particles are gradually eliminated by the body’s natural processes, helping to improve the appearance of pigmentation and promote a brighter, more even-looking complexion over time.
- Stimulates collagen: In addition to targeting pigment, PicoSure Pro supports collagen production to improve skin texture, soften the appearance of acne scars, and address early signs of skin ageing such as fine lines.
Key Benefits of PicoSure Pro
- Skin Rejuvenation: Enhances skin texture and elasticity. Smooths uneven skin tones and refines pore. Reduces pigmentation and dullness for a more radiant complexion.
- Minimal Downtime: Little to no recovery time; return to daily activities immediately.
- Quick Pico Laser Sessions: Each pigmentation treatment takes only 15–30 minutes, making it easy to fit into your schedule.
- Safe for All Skin Tones: Non-thermal pulses minimise heat generation, reducing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), making it safe for darker skin tones and suitable for various skin types.
- Versatile: Effective for all skin types and a wide range of concerns including pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and tattoo removals.
Picosure Pro Downtime and Recovery
PicoSure Pro is designed to fit seamlessly into a busy lifestyle, with minimal disruption to daily activities following treatment.
- Minimal downtime: Most are able to return to their usual activities immediately after treatment. Mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity may occur and typically settles within a few hours to 24 hours.
- Recovery: Unlike some traditional resurfacing lasers, visible peeling, crusting, or scabbing is generally not expected following PicoSure Pro treatments
- Gradual Improvement: Pigmentation may temporarily appear slightly darker before naturally fading as fragmented pigment is cleared by the body’s natural processes.
PicoSure Pro vs Other Pico Lasers
| Feature | PicoSure Pro | Other Pico Lasers (e.g. Discovery Pico) |
|---|---|---|
| Wavelength | Unique 755nm Alexandrite wavelength; highly effective for targeting pigmentation (e.g., age spots, melasma). | Typically 1064nm or 532nm wavelengths; more suitable for tattoo removal and general resurfacing but less precise for pigmentation. |
| Focus Lens Array | Includes specialised Focus Lens Array for enhanced collagen and elastin production; excellent for wrinkle reduction and skin texture improvement. | Generally lacks specialised lens; offers skin rejuvenation but may not deliver as significant improvements in skin firmness and texture. |
| Tattoo Removal Performance | Excellent for stubborn ink colours like blue and green; breaks down ink into smaller particles for faster removal with fewer sessions. | Effective for black and dark inks but may struggle with bright colors and often requires more sessions to achieve comparable results. |
| Comfort & Heat | Non-thermal pulses minimise heat, reducing risk of inflammation, burns, and discomfort; ideal for sensitive skin. | Generates more heat, which may lead to increased redness, swelling, or discomfort post-treatment, especially for sensitive skin or delicate areas. |
| Treatment Efficiency | Faster results with fewer sessions required for optimal outcomes in skin rejuvenation, pigmentation, and tattoo removal. | Generally requires more sessions for similar results, especially for pigmentation correction or complex tattoo removal. |
