Picolazer Skin Rejuvination
How It Works
The Picolazer has been the only picosecond laser that is FDA approved for multiple aesthetic applications and has been deemed safe for all skin types.
This versatile laser allows for rapid and non-invasive removal of melasma, pigment discoloration, scarring, blemishes, pore reduction, fine lines and textural concerns.
The Picolazer places small, rapid burst of energy deep into the skin, where It can break up areas of damaged skin or discolored pigmentation. These ultra short pulses penetrate damaged layers of the skin without relying on heat so the healthy skin cells and tissues in the surrounding area are not affected. The pressure waves created by the Picolazer treatment activates your skin cells natural healing mechanisms, promoting the production of new collagen and elastin, therefore revitalizing the skin from within with typically little to no downtime.
