Whether you want to smooth stubborn acne scars or reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, PicoSure skin rejuvenation can help you look and feel your very best. It can be used safely for people of color.
Approved by the FDA, this anti-aging laser treatment uses picosecond pulses of energy. A picosecond is one trillionth of a second, which is an incredibly short burst of energy. This rapid delivery allows for precise targeting of specific skin concerns, such as stretch marks and unwanted pigmentation, without damaging the surrounding tissue.
Even better, PicoSure offers immediate results with minimal downtime. That means your skin will be brighter and more beautiful after a single treatment.
PicoSure laser skin rejuvenation is a quick and effective means of obtaining a radiant, youthful glow. It can be safely used in people of color. Key benefits include:
PicoSure laser facials can help you address several skin conditions and concerns, including:
From crow’s feet to smile lines to forehead creases, facial wrinkles can leave you feeling insecure. Thankfully, PicoSure uses advanced picosecond technology to stimulate collagen and elastin production. This softens the appearance of bothersome lines and stubborn wrinkles and gives you the confidence boost you’re after.
The PicoSure laser facial is an FDA-approved treatment for acne scars. This safe, effective treatment works by delivering ultra-short pulses of energy to the skin in picoseconds, which helps break down the scar tissue and stimulate collagen and elastin production. As a result, you will see immediate results that last a lifetime.
Stretch marks, also known as striae, are scars that occur when the skin is stretched quickly. This can happen during periods of rapid growth, such as puberty or pregnancy, as well as due to rapid weight gain or loss, hormonal changes, or certain medical conditions. PicoSure treatments reduce the appearance of stretch marks by breaking down scar tissue and stimulating collagen and elastic production.
Sunspots, also known as age spots, are dark, flat patches on the skin caused by excess melanin production. Though usually harmless, these pigmented patches can make you look older than you are. Fortunately, PicoSure is clinically proven to target various pigmentation concerns, including sunspots, freckles, and melasma, while providing a smooth, even skin tone.
If you want to feel more confident in your own skin, discuss PicoSure with a qualified healthcare professional. This non-invasive laser treatment can help you achieve a refreshed and more youthful appearance, boosting your self-esteem with minimal downtime.
A PicoSure laser facial is typically a 30-minute procedure, depending on the areas being treated. Here’s what you can expect during the four-step treatment session.
Before receiving treatment, you will meet with a qualified healthcare professional. During this consultation, you will discuss your skincare concerns, medical history, and aesthetic goals. The healthcare provider will also assess your skin and determine if PicoSure is right for you.
On the day of your procedure, your healthcare provider will get you comfortable on a procedure table and then gently cleanse the treatment area to remove any makeup, oils, or debris. They will then numb the treatment area with a topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort.
Since the PicoSure laser emits intense flashes of light, you will also be provided with laser safety glasses to wear during the procedure. This eyewear protects your eyes from potential damage caused by the laser beam. Your medical provider will also wear safety glasses.
During the procedure, your practitioner will use a wand-like device to administer the laser treatment. You may hear a cracking noise and feel a pinching sensation, almost like being snapped by a rubber band. If needed, your provider will use a cooling fan to help reduce any discomfort.
After the PicoSure rejuvenation session is complete, your healthcare provider may apply a soothing gel or moisturizer to the treated area to help calm the skin and alleviate any redness or irritation. They will also provide you with specific post-treatment instructions, including skincare recommendations and sun protection measures.
Depending on your aesthetic goals, your practitioner may schedule follow-up treatments spaced several weeks apart.
PicoSure rejuvenation is a safe, FDA-approved solution for individuals looking to refresh their appearance. However, like any cosmetic procedure, there are potential side effects. These include:
Depending on your aesthetic goals, your practitioner may schedule follow-up treatments spaced several weeks apart.
These side effects are typically mild and lessen shortly after treatment. To optimize your results and reduce discomfort, you should:
*Individual results may vary
PicoSure offers immediate results. These results progressively improve in the weeks following treatment as the body produces more collagen and elastin.
The longevity of PicoSure results depends on the skin concern being addressed. PicoSure results after treatment for facial scars and pigmentation are permanent.
Patients usually require three to six treatments spaced several weeks apart for optimal results. However, your healthcare provider will work with you to determine a treatment plan tailored to your skincare needs.
Like any cosmetic procedure, PicoSure is associated with potential side effects such as redness, swelling, sensitivity, dryness, and peeling. These symptoms are usually mild and dissipate within a few days after treatment.
The cost of PicoSure skin rejuvenation will vary depending on your specific treatment plan. However, it is significantly more affordable than surgical cosmetic interventions.
Combining PicoSure laser facials with complementary treatments can enhance overall results. Here are some additional procedures we recommend pairing with PicoSure in Charlotte:
Botox is a cosmetic injectable that diminishes dynamic wrinkles, such as crow's feet and forehead lines. In contrast, PicoSure targets wrinkles and fine lines, smooths scars and stretchmarks, and addresses pigmentation concerns. When used together, these two treatments help patients achieve radiant skin.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing process and promoting collagen and elastin production. Combining microneedling with PicoSure rejuvenation treatment can afford dramatic, long-lasting results.
PicoSure is just one of many anti-aging laser treatments in Charlotte. At Ageless Remedies SouthPark Med Spa, we encourage patients to also explore other treatments, such as Thermage FLX and Fraxel Dual. These safe, non-surgical solutions can give you the beautiful, brilliant glow you’re after.
Pairing PicoSure with laser hair removal can boost your appearance and confidence. While PicoSure smooths wrinkles, reduces pigmentation, and softens acne scars, laser hair removal targets unwanted body hair on your legs, bikini area, face, arms, and armpits.
