The ideal treatment for skin pigmentation, wrinkles, and acne scars, PicoSure is an advanced laser treatment with a reduced thermal effect as it irradiates laser light in picoseconds, activating your body's natural skin cell processes for healthier and more youthful-looking skin. PicoSure is suitable for all skin types; it is the world's first picosecond aesthetic laser, widely recognized for its technology and proven performance in skin revitalization.

Irradiation of skin with a lower output laser, Pico Spot targets on eliminating melanin, the cell that causes skin pigmentation such as freckles and age spots, with a shock wave technique instead of intense heat as it has a high melanin absorbance and reacts with the pigments easily. This laser treatment is gentle on the skin with almost zero downtime needed.

Pico Spot is also popularly used to treat ADM, Acquired Dermal Melanocytosis. It is often regarded as pigmentation but ADM appears in crown spot clusters distributed symmetrically around the face.

PicoSure is a non-ablative laser that is mainly used for pigmentation and acne scar removal. This laser works at a wavelength of 755 nm with great melanin absorbance. The system breaks down pigmentation into much smaller fragments compared to a Q-Switched Laser (nanosecond laser), which enables your skin to clear pigmentation fragments faster and easier, reducing the total number of treatments required. After your pigmentation has been broken down into fragments, they are removed by the skin's immune system.
