PicoWay – Picosecond Laser
Pico laser treatments are commonly used to improve skin quality, address uneven pigmentation, soften acne scarring, and remove unwanted tattoos. The laser delivers high-intensity energy in extremely short bursts, allowing pigment or ink particles to be broken down while keeping surrounding skin safe.
A major advantage of pico technology is that it often achieves visible results in fewer sessions compared to traditional lasers. Because the energy is delivered so quickly, treatments are typically more comfortable and come with a lower risk of side effects such as scarring or unwanted changes in skin color.
Treatment plans are customized for each client. Depending on skin type, condition, and goals, results may require only a few sessions or a series of treatments over several months.
During the procedure, the laser handpiece is passed over the treatment area, delivering quick pulses of energy. Most patients describe the sensation as mild and tolerable, and topical numbing can be applied if needed. Sessions are typically quick, with minimal downtime.
PicoWay® can be used for:
-
Sun spots and hyperpigmentation
-
Melasma and discoloration
-
Acne scars and textural concerns
-
Skin rejuvenation
-
Tattoo removal
Yes. PicoWay® is designed to be safe for a wide range of skin tones and types. Because it uses minimal heat, it significantly reduces the risk of burns or post-inflammatory pigmentation compared to traditional lasers.
Most patients describe the sensation as mild to moderate, similar to a quick snapping feeling on the skin. A topical numbing cream can be applied before treatment to improve comfort.
Treatment time depends on the area being treated, but most sessions take between 15 and 45 minutes.
There is little to no downtime. You may experience some redness or mild swelling for a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the treatment area and intensity.
The number of sessions varies depending on your skin concerns, goals, and how your skin responds. Some patients see results in just a few treatments, while others may need a series of sessions for optimal improvement.
Some improvements can be seen after the first session, especially for pigmentation. Collagen stimulation and texture improvements continue to develop over the following weeks as the skin regenerates.
Yes. Most clients return to their normal routine immediately, though you should avoid sun exposure and follow post-treatment care instructions.
Yes. PicoWay® is one of the most advanced technologies for tattoo removal and can effectively break down stubborn ink colors with fewer sessions compared to traditional lasers.
PicoWay® offers faster pulses, less heat, greater precision, and often fewer treatments, making it more comfortable and safer than many older laser systems.
After your PicoWay® treatment, mild redness or swelling is normal and usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of days. Avoid picking at any scabs or flakes, and keep the area moisturised with a gentle, non-irritating product. Protect your skin from sun exposure by using broad-spectrum SPF 30+ and wearing protective clothing. For the first week, avoid harsh skincare products, exfoliants, tanning beds, or excessive heat. Normal activities can usually be resumed immediately, and gradual improvement will continue as pigment clears and collagen production boosts skin texture and tone.
