About the treatment
PicoSure Pro is a picosecond laser platform designed for precise skin clarity, pigmentation, toning, pore, and texture treatment. Its ultra-short pulse duration creates a photoacoustic effect that helps fragment pigment with less reliance on heat spread.
By using very short pulses at a primary 755nm wavelength, PicoSure Pro can support targeted pigmentation management, skin toning, and texture refinement while reducing the surrounding thermal disruption associated with many conventional laser approaches.
What it treats
A protocol designed to support overall luminosity, skin clarity, dull complexion, generalised pigmentation, and uneven tone.
Overall luminosity
Skin clarity
Dull complexion
Generalised pigmentation
Uneven tone
Focused treatment for selected pigment concerns after assessment, including sunspots, age spots, freckles, PIH, and selected melasma cases.
Sunspots
Age spots
Freckles
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Selected melasma cases
A precision approach for visible pores, uneven texture, superficial acne scarring, fine lines, and surface irregularities.
Enlarged pores
Uneven texture
Superficial acne scarring
Fine lines
Surface irregularities
How it works
PicoSure Pro delivers energy in picoseconds to create a pressure wave effect that helps fragment pigment and stimulate a skin response with less thermal spread. This lower heat profile may help reduce surface disruption and support a lower PIH risk profile compared with more heat-dependent approaches, though individual suitability must always be assessed.
PicoSure Pro may be considered across a broader range of skin tones, but it is not suitable for every person or every pigment concern. Melasma requires careful individual assessment and a conservative treatment plan.
Appointment process
Step 01
Your practitioner assesses pigment history, skin tone, sensitivity, treatment goals, and suitability before recommending a protocol.
Step 02
The skin is cleansed and prepared. Topical numbing may be applied depending on the protocol and treatment area.
Step 03
Ultra-short picosecond pulses are delivered with settings selected for toning, targeted pigment, or pore and texture refinement.
Step 04
Redness may occur. Treated pigment can temporarily darken before shedding, while texture and collagen-related changes build gradually. Results vary between individuals.

FAQ
PicoSure Pro uses ultra-short picosecond pulses that create a photoacoustic effect. This helps fragment pigment with less surrounding heat spread compared to many conventional nanosecond laser approaches. IPL is a light-based platform rather than a picosecond laser.
Skin toning is generally used for broader clarity, uneven tone, and dullness. Spot treatment is more targeted and is selected for visible pigment such as sunspots, freckles, age spots, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Selected melasma cases may be considered, but melasma requires careful individual assessment. Treatment plans must be conservative and tailored because pigment response can vary.
Most clients describe a snapping or warm sensation during treatment. Topical numbing may be applied when appropriate. Comfort varies depending on the protocol, treatment area, and individual tolerance.
Temporary redness, warmth, sensitivity, or mild swelling may occur. Pigment can darken before naturally shedding. Recovery depends on the selected protocol and your skin response.
A series of treatments is often recommended for pigment, toning, pore, and texture concerns. The number of sessions depends on your skin, concern depth, pigment type, and treatment goals.
PicoSure Pro may be considered for a broader range of skin tones because of its picosecond pulse profile, but suitability must be assessed carefully, especially for pigment-prone skin.
In some cases, PicoSure Pro may be combined with facials, peels, microneedling, injectables, or other device treatments as part of a staged skin plan. Your practitioner will advise safe sequencing.
