PICO lasers deliver ultra-short bursts of energy in picoseconds (one trillionth of a second). Unlike traditional Q-switched or nanosecond lasers that rely heavily on heat (photothermal effects), PICO lasers primarily create a photoacoustic effect. This means they shatter pigment and stimulate dermal remodeling through rapid mechanical energy rather than prolonged heat exposure.
Melanin absorbs the 1064 nm wavelength used in PICO Genesis effectively.
The picosecond pulse duration shatters pigment particles into much smaller fragments than nanosecond lasers, allowing the body to clear pigment more efficiently.
Result: Effective treatment of hyperpigmentation without damaging surrounding tissue, reducing risk of post-treatment hypopigmentation or rebound pigmentation.
The shorter pulse duration reduces heat buildup, meaning there is less thermal injury to the epidermis and surrounding structures.
Patients typically experience mild redness or warmth only, which resolves within hours.
Advantage: PICO lasers are suitable for patients with darker skin types (Fitzpatrick IV–VI), who are more prone to complications with traditional laser systems.
PICO laser energy stimulates natural wound-healing pathways without breaking the skin.
It has shown clinical benefit for:
• Acne scars
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Dull or uneven skin tone
• Large pores
• Tattoo removal
This versatility makes it ideal as a cornerstone of modern non-ablative skin rejuvenation, especially in combination protocols.
Multiple treatments can be safely performed at short intervals (2–4 weeks apart), with progressive, natural-looking results.
Improvements in skin brightness, clarity, and smoothness are typically noticeable after just 1–2 treatments, with continued improvement over a series of 3–6 sessions.
PICO laser technology represents a paradigm shift in skin rejuvenation, combining high efficacy with low downtime and superior safety. By leveraging photoacoustic energy instead of heat, it stimulates collagen production and pigment clearance with minimal trauma, making it a first-line choice for patients seeking a safer, gentler, and more effective rejuvenation option.
