PicoSure FAQ

What does the PicoSure laser do?

The PicoSure laser has multiple applications. The medical aesthetics experts at Rancho Wellness Aesthetic perform the following services using PicoSure.

Laser tattoo removal, including colored tattoo ink
Pigmentation removal, including age spots, pigmented stretch marks, and all other types of pigmentation
Skin rejuvenation, correcting problems such as poor tone, poor texture, and lack of firmness

During PicoSure treatment, a series of picosecond (one trillionth of one second) bursts of light are sent directly into the treatment area. The intense, targeted light from the picosecond pulse is non-thermal (no significant heat is used) and will not only break up the pigment but also stimulate new collagen and elastin, tightening the skin and softening wrinkles with little downtime.

How long does treatment last?

Treatment is very quick, with sessions lasting around 15 minutes. Most patients need multiple sessions to fully address their concerns in an optimal way. The team at Rancho Wellness Aesthetic will customize a PicoSure treatment plan that will work for your individual needs.

How does PicoSure compare to traditional lasers?

Traditional lasers operate in nanoseconds, which means they're far slower. In fact, PicoSure is 100 times faster than an old-fashioned laser. The PicoSure laser is also more powerful, as it has the ability to shatter undesired pigment or ink into dust-like pieces. The older lasers break apart the pigment or ink, but they break it into much larger pieces that are harder for your body to process and eliminate efficiently. A PicoSure laser treatment course is usually much shorter than that required by a traditional laser. For example, an older laser might require 15 sessions to accomplish what a PicoSure laser could do in just 10 sessions. Every case is different, but in general, the PicoSure is more effective, faster, and more powerful than other lasers.

How long should you wait between PicoSure treatment sessions?

PicoSure treatment sessions are usually scheduled around six weeks apart. This allows time for the body to eliminate the ink, pigment particles, or damaged skin. The Rancho Wellness Aesthetics team will create the ideal treatment plan for you. PicoSure can help you achieve the appearance you've always wanted.
