PicoSure

To revitalize and refresh the skin, we offer PicoSure laser facial treatments to gently address a variety of skin concerns, including freckles, sun and age spots, uneven skin texture, fine lines and wrinkles, and more.

What Is Picosure?

PicoSure is the first picosecond laser developed for aesthetic use. A picosecond laser provides patients with the benefit of a shorter pulse duration, meaning it operates at speeds which are measured in trillionths of a second. The shorter pulse duration means the laser energy is in the form of pressure or pulsed shock waves that generate little-to-no heat.

This results in the erasure of skin pigmentation concerns of all types, without downtime. Additionally, the PicoSure treatment triggers the production of collagen, which restructures and build new, firmer, more glowing skin.

What skin concerns does PicoSure address?

PicoSure treatments are ideal to address pigmentation concerns and other skin imperfections. With its rapid energy delivery system that destroys unwanted pigment and revitalizes the skin with a fresh, renewed surface, PicoSure can effectively address the following:

Age spots
Sun damage
Freckles
Pigmented lesions
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven skin texture
Dull, tired skin tone
Acne scarring
Rosacea
Moles
Birthmarks

Aftercare

There is no downtime after PicoSure treatments. You may experience slight redness and minor swelling once the treatment is complete. However, this will last for only a few hours. If there is any discomfort, a cooling cream may be applied.

After your treatment, be gentle and care for your skin with these tips:

Use soft materials only on the skin
Do not touch or pick at the treated area
Stay out of the sun, and use sunscreen daily
Avoid chlorinated water for 1-2 days
