What is PicoSure Pro?
PicoSure Pro is a state-of-the-art laser technology that uses picosecond pulses of energy to target and break down unwanted pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and tattoos. The treatment is non-invasive and requires minimal downtime.
How does PicoSure Pro work?
PicoSure Pro delivers short bursts of energy into the treatment area — picosecond pulses, to be precise. These are much faster than the nanosecond pulses delivered by other laser devices, making them more precise as well as gentle. With these pulses, the energy breaks down unwanted pigment, whether it’s sun spots or the ink of a tattoo, allowing your body to eliminate it naturally over time. The energy from PicoSure Pro also stimulates collagen production to help firm and smooth skin. Because the energy bursts are so brief, making them gentler, PicoSure Pro is an effective treatment option for those with melanated skin or melasma.
Tattoo Removal with PicoSure Pro
PicoSure Pro is a leading laser technology for tattoo removal. It is the only picosecond laser with a 755nm wavelength, which means that it can treat a wide range of tattoo colors. Unlike other tattoo removal technologies, PicoSure Pro can effectively remove stubborn colors like red and orange.
Is PicoSure Pro safe?
PicoSure Pro is a safe and effective treatment when performed by a qualified and experienced provider. There is no downtime needed with PicoSure Pro, making it an ideal option for those who want to rejuvenate their skin without invasive surgery or extensive recovery time, including those who have deeper complexions.
Why Choose PicoSure Pro?
PicoSure Pro is a highly effective treatment for a variety of skin concerns, including tattoo removal. With advanced laser technology, it delivers fast and effective results with minimal discomfort and downtime.
Recovery + Results
In the case of energy-based, nonsurgical skin tightening procedures, some patients may notice an immediate collagen contraction, causing the skin to appear more plump and supple. Full results often take up to four months to appear as new collagen is produced, and skin is tightened. When being treated with injectable fillers, patients will seen an immediate improvement to the treatment area due to the added volume; as the fillers stimulate collagen production, results will continue to improve.
Following any of the nonsurgical skin tightening treatments offered at Facet Dermatology, you can immediately resume normal daily activities. You may experience temporary redness, swelling, or discomfort, but these side effects should subside quickly. No specific aftercare is required.
