How Does Pico Laser Work?

Traditional lasers use heat to target skin concerns. Pico Lasers on the other hand, work in trillionths of a second (picoseconds). They deliver ultra-short bursts of energy that shatter pigmentation into tiny particles, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.

The treatment also stimulates collagen and elastin production, which helps to improve skin texture and firmness over time. This makes it an effective all-in-one skin solution that can both correct and rejuvenate.

What Are The Conditions That Pico Laser Treats

1. Skin Pigmentation
   Pico Laser is highly effective against freckles, melasma, age spots, and sun damage, breaking down excess pigment without harming surrounding skin.
2. Acne Scars
   By stimulating collagen remodeling, it reduces the depth of scars, smooths rough texture, and diminishes post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
3. Enlarged Pores
   Collagen stimulation tightens skin, minimising the appearance of large pores and giving a smoother complexion.
4. Fine Lines and Wrinkles
   Non-invasive collagen induction helps soften early signs of aging, restoring youthful skin.
5. Uneven Skin Tone
   Pico Laser brightens overall complexion, balancing discoloration and giving a healthier glow.
6. Dull Skin
   By promoting skin renewal, it restores radiance and vitality.
7. Certain Birthmarks
   Some pigmented birthmarks can be effectively treated depending on type and depth.
