What is PicoLaser & how does it work?

​

PicoLaser uses ultra-short bursts of laser energy to break down pigment into tiny particles without damaging surrounding skin. It also stimulates collagen production, helping to smooth texture, fade marks, and rejuvenate the skin — all with minimal heat or downtime.​​

​​

Is a PicoLaser treatment painful?

​

Most clients tolerate it well. You may feel a mild snapping or warming sensation during treatment. We use cooling throughout to keep you comfortable.

​

​

Is a patch test required?

​

Yes, a patch test and consultation are required before your first session to ensure it's safe and suitable for your skin.

​

Will my skin peel?

 

PicoLaser treatments typically do not cause visible peeling. You may experience slight dryness or flaking, but full peeling isn’t expected or required for results. ​

​

How long does the treatment take?

​

Each session takes 30–45 minutes, depending on the area and whether any extras like LED or a mask are added.

​

​When will I see results?​​

Some clients notice a glow or brightness after just 1 session.

For deeper issues like acne or pigmentation, we recommend a course of 3–6 sessions for best results

What is the difference between Pico laser  and chemical peels​?

​

Pico Laser:

 

Uses ultra-fast laser pulses (no heat)

Shatters pigment deep in the dermis

Minimal to no downtime

Safe for all skin tones

Ideal for deep hyperpigmentation, scars, tattoos

Results often visible faster with fewer sessions

​

Chemical Peels:

 

Uses acids to exfoliate skin surface

Works mainly on the top layers of skin

Can cause peeling, redness, and downtime

Risk of irritation on darker skin tones if not tailored

Better for surface-level issues like texture or mild marks
