PicoSure

Aging may be unavoidable but the signs are not! At Skincare Laser Centre, we pride ourselves on our ability to revitalize and rejuvenate the skin. Our providers are experts in their field, using the latest and most innovative procedures to ensure optimum results to achieve skin revitalization. By using PicoSure, our providers are able to treat a myriad of skin conditions like hyperpigmentation, melasma, scarring, and wrinkles.

What is Picosure?

PicoSure is a new and innovative aesthetic laser that is able to revitalize skin without using heat like older models. Instead, PicoSure uses energy to rejuvenate the skin. By converting energy into pressure waves, PicoSure can alter blemishes on the skin. Because of its ability to operate without heat as the driving force, PicoSure provides less discomfort and downtime during and after the procedure.*

What is Hyperpigmentation/Melasma?

To understand hyperpigmentation you have to understand how melanin works. Melanin is the pigment responsible for skin color. Hyperpigmentation is a condition caused when an excess of melanin causes the skin to darken. Hyperpigmentation can take many forms: tanning, freckles, and melasma (more commonly known as dark spots). Appearing more frequently in women than men, melasma (darkened brown or gray patches) commonly appear on the face and is aggravated by exposure to the sun.

How long does the picosure procedure last?

Skin Revitalization (PICOSURE) has 24-48 hour downtime with swelling and redness. The procedure has MINIMAL discomfort and then the entire treatment takes a maximum of 2 hours to complete.

What is scarring?

PicoSure can also treat areas of the skin affected by scarring. Acne scars not only damage the skin but also can also put a damper on your mental state. Affecting the self-confidence of many patients, our providers at Skincare Laser Centre take pride in their ability to restore our patient’s skin to its natural state. Using PicoSure to signal the skin cells affected by acne scars, the damaged cells can begin to heal, revitalizing the face.

Wrinkles

As we grow older, our skin begins to lose its elasticity and hydration. When the skin becomes overly dry, wrinkles begin to form. As we age, wrinkle production can be increased based on skin color (fairer skin is more prone to sun damage) and lifestyle factors (such as tanning or smoking). PicoSure can reduce the appearance of wrinkles by promoting the production of elastin and collagen to ultimately revitalize the skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Skin revitalization is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment designed to refresh and rejuvenate the skin by improving its texture, tone, and overall appearance. Using advanced laser technology, this treatment stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation issues. It’s ideal for individuals looking to restore a youthful glow without the need for surgery or extensive downtime.
Most patients see noticeable improvements after just one skin revitalization session, with smoother, brighter skin. However, for more significant and long-lasting results, a series of 3-5 treatments is typically recommended. These sessions are spaced a few weeks apart to allow your skin time to heal and respond to the treatment. The exact number of sessions needed will vary based on your skin’s condition and your aesthetic goals.
Yes, skin revitalization is generally safe for all skin types. The treatment can be customized to address specific concerns for each individual. However, it is important to consult with a trained specialist to determine if this treatment is suitable for you, especially if you have sensitive skin, certain skin conditions, or a history of skin reactions. A personalized consultation will help ensure the treatment is both effective and safe for your skin type.
The results of skin revitalization can last anywhere from several months to a year, depending on factors such as your skin type, age, lifestyle, and how well you care for your skin after treatment. To maintain the youthful glow and improved skin texture, occasional touch-up treatments are recommended. Regular skincare routines and sun protection can help prolong the benefits and keep your skin looking rejuvenated for longer.
Skin revitalization is generally safe when performed by a trained and experienced professional. However, like any cosmetic procedure, there can be some risks. Potential side effects include temporary redness, mild swelling, or sensitivity in the treated areas. These side effects are usually mild and resolve quickly. It is important to follow aftercare instructions and attend follow-up appointments to ensure the best results and avoid any complications.
