Picoway
PicoWay® is a new ultra-short, picosecond, laser treatment for acne scars, wrinkles, dark spots (also known as pigmentation or benign pigmented lesions) and tattoo removal that can transform your skin. Because PicoWay uses a photoacoustic effect that reaches under the top layer of skin, rather than working by heating the skin, PicoWay patients have low to no downtime after treatment.
Picoway laser system is FDA cleared for treatment of benign pigmented lesions and also tattoo removal for all tattoo colours for a wide variety of skin types.
Please note that the treatment should only be performed by an accredited medical professional. Get evaluated by an accredited doctor to determine if you are a good candidate for it.
Picoway Resolve
PicoWay uses several different laser handpieces to achieve results. Picoway Resolve handpiece has also secured FDA clearance for acne scars and wrinkles. PicoWay Resolve treatment uses a laser handpiece that splits the main laser beam into smaller, identical beams for treatment of acne scars and wrinkles.
Acne Scars
Nearly 40% of those with acne have some degree of scarring. Many acne scars result from a loss of collagen in the skin. PicoWay Resolve is an ultra-short, picosecond laser that reaches below the surface of the skin to stimulate production of collagen and elastin, without breaking the outermost layer of the skin. In clinical studies, 94% of treated areas improved and patients were highly satisfied with results.
Wrinkles
Millions of people each year seek treatment for their wrinkles. Wrinkles can be caused by a loss of collagen and elastin in the skin. PicoWay Resolve is a non-invasive, needle free treatment option for wrinkles. Resolve uses ultra-short laser pulses to reach under the skin, without breaking the outer layer of the skin. Picosecond lasers are proven to stimulate collagen and elastin.
In clinical studies, there were high rates improvement and patients had high rates of satisfaction with results. Because PicoWay does not break the outer layer of the skin, patients have low to no downtime following treatment.
Dark Spots
Skin discoloration is common, yet treatable. Dark spots, or benign pigmented lesions, such as freckles, liver spots (age spots), and café-au-lait (brown patches), appear in many people on different areas of the skin. Some spots are related to excessive sun exposure. Others, like melasma, can be caused by hormone changes, often impacting women following pregnancy. Many of these skin discolorations can be distressing and affect quality of life.
PicoWay is a high power, ultra-short pulse laser that reaches below the skin’s surface to break unwanted dark spots into tiny particles. PicoWay is highly effective in skin pigment removal. Many patients see visible improvement following the first treatment.
Tattoo Removal
PicoWay is a high power laser with ultra-short pulses that shatters tattoo ink, but leaves the outer layer of the skin intact. PicoWay treats a broad range of tattoo colors and across a broad range of skin types and colors. Over a series of brief treatments, PicoWay can eliminate most tattoos.
