What is PicoSure?
PicoSure is a unique type of laser treatment that doesn’t use heat to burn or melt away tissue. Instead, it uses short pulses of energy that build pressure in your cells, signaling them to produce collagen and elastin. Compared to lasers that use damaging heat, PicoSure just relies on this gentle pressure to get results, letting your body’s natural healing processes work to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, acne scars, and unwanted marks on your skin.
With this innovative technology, PicoSure treatments can give you excellent results without damaging healthy tissue and with minimal discomfort during and after treatment.
What can PicoSure treat?
PicoSure is a one-stop treatment for skin revitalization. It can address a range of cosmetic concerns, including:
- Sun spots
- Freckles
- Age marks
- Acne scars
- Wrinkles
- Fine lines
- Tattoos
What can I expect during treatment?
Your PicoSure treatment is fast, typically lasting anywhere from 10-15 minutes, so you won’t have to take too much time away from your normal activities.
You can sit back and relax while the handheld laser moves over your treatment area. Treatment is painless, and most men and women describe it as the feeling of a rubber band snapping across their skin.
After your treatment, you may experience a little bit of swelling and redness in the treatment area, but it doesn’t last more than a few hours. You may need a series of treatments for optimal results.
What are the benefits of PicoSure treatment?
There are a few reasons that you might choose PicoSure treatment over traditional laser treatments:
- There’s no downtime
- There’s no damage to healthy tissue
- There’s minimal discomfort
With this simple treatment, you can finally get smooth, even skin in a matter of minutes, without having to sacrifice your time or comfort.
Is there special care required for after treatment?
It’s important to avoid excess sun exposure after PicoSure treatment because your skin will be tender and susceptible to sunburn. Take care to apply sunscreens and moisturizers after your treatment.
