Treatment Type:

PICO LASERO / PICOSURE

Overview

Pico lasers are a popular choice for those wanting to treat pigmentation, acne marks, or even tattoos. Instead of using heat, it delivers very fast, high-pressure pulses to shatter pigment particles without burning the surrounding skin. This makes it feel a bit different from older types of lasers — often described as quicker, with less downtime. People often turn to it for clearer, more even-toned skin, especially when they’re dealing with stubborn dark spots or post-acne discoloration.

Common Reasons People Choose It

  • Commonly used for fading pigmentation like sunspots, freckles, or acne marks

  • Sometimes chosen as a tattoo removal option

  • Seen as a newer, gentler alternative to traditional lasers

Treatment Experience

The treatment usually starts with a cleansing of the skin, and sometimes a bit of numbing cream. The laser makes quick, snapping sounds as it moves across targeted areas. Some people say it feels like rubber bands snapping — sharp but manageable. Sessions are usually short, and the skin may look slightly red or feel sensitive right after, but there’s rarely any major peeling or downtime.

Pros

  • Minimal Downtime: Most people don’t need to hide away after treatment

  • Versatile: Can be used for pigmentation, texture, and even tattoos

  • Suitable for Sensitive Skin: Less heat means lower risk of irritation

Cons

  • Subtle per Session: May require several visits for noticeable results

  • Not Great for All Pigment Types: Some spots respond better than others

  • Can Be Pricey: Especially when used for tattoo removal over multiple sessions
