PicoSure Program

PicoSure Program

Pico Laser Program is a groundbreaking innovation in aesthetic lasers that revolutionized the field of dermatology. Our clinic uses the world’s first PicoSure Laser, which employs Picosecond Technology to deliver high-energy pulses in a very short period of time, breaking down pigment in fine particles. The treatment time is shorter compared to any previous laser devices. It effectively addresses all skin issues such as melasma, freckles, dark spots, acne scars, pockmarks, reduces wrinkles, and removes tattoos. It is suitable for all skin types, safe, and free from the side effects that may occur with traditional lasers. We offer special promotion prices and real patient reviews to help you decide where to get your treatment.

What is the Pico Laser Program?

Pico Laser is a laser device that utilizes a new technology called Picosecond to treat pigmentation issues beneath the skin (Hyperpigmentation) such as melasma, freckles, dark spots, acne scars, and pockmarks. It is also used for tattoo removal. The device emits laser light at a Picosecond frequency, which is incredibly fast at one trillionth of a second. Due to this unique feature, many countries have produced various brands of Pico laser devices, such as Pico Way, PicoSecond, and PicoSure, with each brand having different specifications.

What is Picosecond Technology?

            Picosecond is an innovative development in laser light technology that is highly specific. Previously, the best technology in the field of dermatology was ‘Nanosecond,’ but now the latest development is ‘Picosecond.’ This technology can deliver energy at an extremely high speed of one trillionth of a second. As a result, the pigment molecules break apart into smaller particles, making the removal of pigmentation more efficient and effective.

Picosecond vs Nanosecond

1 Picosecond is equal to 1 / trillionth of a second.
1 Nanosecond is equal to 1 / billionth of a second.

As you can see, a Picosecond is much shorter than a Nanosecond by several times.

Before-After PicoSure Program

The before and after images of real patients who trusted our clinic for the PicoSure program. You can clearly see the fading of melasma and dark spots on the face.

Treatment Results

After receiving the Pico Laser program, patients will notice a brighter complexion, reduced dark spots, and an improvement in skin tone. The treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping to fade acne scars and fine lines. Patients can be confident in its safety, as it is suitable for all skin types. It effectively addresses pigmentation issues while reducing the amount of melanin responsible for dark spots. *Results may vary depending on individual skin conditions and concerns.

Impressions from Clients Who Have Used the PicoSure Program

These are some of the reviews from real patients who chose to receive treatment at our clinic using the PicoSure program. Most of the clients are highly satisfied with the results and have unanimously reported that their dark spots, freckles, and pigmentation on the face visibly faded after the first treatment.

Key Features of This Service

In addition to the PicoSure laser program incorporating Picosecond technology to enhance treatment effectiveness, this laser model also offers several standout features that surpass others, as follows:

    1. Pressure Wave™
      This technology causes pigment particles to vibrate at a high frequency, leading to the dispersion of densely clustered pigments, such as freckles, age spots, and tattoos, into smaller molecules. This makes it easier for the body to eliminate them without generating heat. Moreover, fewer treatment sessions are needed compared to traditional laser methods.
    2. Optimal Wavelength Range
      The 755-nanometer wavelength is considered the best for pigment removal. It is highly effective in treating skin pigmentation issues by absorbing melanin and dark pigments, making it ideal for addressing freckles, age spots, and tattoo removal across all color shades.
    3. Focus™ Lens Array
      With a special lens head, the laser energy is delivered to induce LIBO (Laser-induced optical breakdown) in the epidermis, similar to fractional treatments, but without causing wounds (Non-invasive) and no recovery time required (No downtime). This provides effective treatment for acne scars, irregular pigmentation, and wrinkles.

High Safety Standards and Treatment Effectiveness

  • Certified by the US FDA (United States Food and Drug Administration)
  • With over 500,000 patients treated with the PicoSure program, it has shown effective and satisfactory results.
  • Research has been published in more than 10 medical journals.
  • The laser has been discussed in over 45 academic conferences.
  • Studies have shown that PicoSure is safe and has no adverse effects, even in infants.

Comparing the PicoSure Program with Traditional Laser Machines

  1. Traditional lasers that have been used for a long time typically emit energy at the Nanosecond level, or 1 nanosecond = 1 / one billionth of a second. In contrast, PicoSure can emit energy at the Picosecond level, or 1 Picosecond = 1 / one trillionth of a second, resulting in better treatment outcomes.
  2. The PicoSure program uses a wavelength of 755 nm, which is the most effective wavelength for addressing pigment issues. It can absorb melanin pigment three times better than the 1064 nm wavelength.
  3. It has been proven that the 755 nm wavelength can effectively remove blue, green, and black tattoos (the most common tattoo colors).
  4. Studies have shown that lasers using the Picosecond system can break down melanin pigment or tattoo ink into much smaller particles compared to Q-Switch lasers or Nanosecond system lasers. This leads to faster fading of blemishes and requires fewer treatment sessions.
  5. During treatment, the Picosecond system causes less pain compared to Q-Switch or other traditional laser machines.
  6. In addition to reducing dark spots, freckles, and hyperpigmentation like older lasers, PicoSure also helps stimulate collagen and elastin production, making the skin brighter and smoother after treatment.
  7. With high energy waves, The PicoSure program can penetrate the epidermis and reach the dermis without causing any wounds, which means there is no downtime after the treatment compared to other laser treatments.

How to Spot Genuine vs. Fake Pico Laser Program

When new innovations hit the market, counterfeiting is a common issue. Pico Laser machines are no exception to this trend. To prevent being misled, here are 5 key points to help you distinguish between a genuine Pico Laser program and a counterfeit one.

Pre- and Post-Treatment Guidelines for Pico Laser Program

Pre-Treatment Recommendations:

    1. Avoid activities in extremely hot weather or direct sunlight for about one week before the laser treatment.
    2. Refrain from using creams or products containing exfoliating ingredients such as AHA, BHA, Vitamin A, or fruit acids.
    3. Individuals with Seborrheic Dermatitis should increase skin hydration to prevent excessive dryness and cracking.
    4. If you have a history of cold sores, please inform your doctor before the treatment.
    5. Those with pre-existing medical conditions should inform the doctor prior to treatment to prevent any potential side effects.
    6. Avoid hair removal techniques such as waxing or tweezing for about three weeks before treatment. If necessary, shaving is recommended as an alternative, as it minimizes irritation. Shaving should be done about 1-2 days before the laser treatment.

Post-Treatment Guidelines:

    1. Avoid getting the treated area wet for 24 hours after the procedure.
    2. You may apply a cold compress after treatment to reduce discomfort.
    3. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or heat for at least 2 weeks following the treatment.
    4. Refrain from using cosmetics on the treated area for at least 1 week after the procedure.
    5. Avoid scrubbing, picking, or scratching the treated area.
    6. Regularly apply sunscreen to protect the skin.
