PicoSure laser treats your skin, leaving you with healthier, youthful-looking skin.
PicoSure uses ultra-short laser pulses to stimulate collagen production. This rejuvenates the skin at a cellular level, leaving your skin undamaged. Damaged cells are cleared by the body, resulting in smoother, brighter skin.
There are numerous benefits to undertaking a PicoSure procedure.
This is a non-surgical laser procedure, meaning you will not require any anaesthetic or incisions. The procedure will be quick, and there will be minimal downtime following your appointment.
PicoSure is effective at treating acne scars, mild wrinkles, and sun damaged skin.
Unlike other procedures and lasers, PicoSure is suitable to be used on any skin type.
Prior to your PicoSure appointment, you will need to ensure you avoid any excess sun exposure for at least a month, which includes any tanning beds or self-tanning lotions.
On the day of your procedure, a numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area to ensure you experience minimal discomfort.
The PicoSure will then be used on the skin on the targeted area of the body. PicoSure laser delivers energy in short blasts, over a trillion of a second. The energy targets the molecules in the upper skin, avoiding the lower part of the skin. This not only causes collagen production to begin but also causes a reduction of skin pigmentation.
Treatment length will vary depending on the target area and your skin, however, average treatments last from 5 to 20 minutes.
Generally, you will require multiple PicoSure sessions to experience the desired results. Follow up sessions will occur four to six weeks apart. For the best results, we recommend undertaking three to four laser sessions.
After your treatment, you may see some redness in the skin and experience sensitivity. We recommend avoiding rubbing or scratching the treated area in order to avoid any skin damage or further sensitivity. We also recommend avoiding applying make up to the treated area for 48 hours.
You will be able to return to your usual daily routine straight after the treatment.
It can take up to two weeks to see a noticeable difference, with further differences being noticeable after following up appointments.
PicoSure is able to treat a range of skin concerns, including:
This is a suitable procedure for those who are looking to eliminate the signs of ageing, tattoo and sun damage.
