Revitalise Your Skin with PICO Toning: The Ultimate Solution for a Flawless Complexion

PICO Toning is a cutting-edge laser treatment transforming skincare routines worldwide. Utilising ultra-short laser pulses, PICO Toning is an advanced technique designed to enhance collagen production and disperse melanin clusters in the skin. This innovative approach not only smooths skin texture and boosts tone but also effectively diminishes the visibility of imperfections, promoting a more even and vibrant complexion.

Ideal for tackling stubborn skin issues, PICO Toning stands out as a highly effective remedy for Melasma - a challenging form of hyperpigmentation that often resists traditional treatment methods. Its gentle yet powerful technology ensures safety across all skin types, making it a universal solution for anyone seeking to elevate their skin's health and appearance.

Key Benefits of PICO Toning for Skin Rejuvenation:

Improved Skin Tone and Texture: PICO Toning rejuvenates the skin by stimulating collagen production, leaving it smoother and more refined.
Reduction of Blemishes: Targeted laser pulses work to break down melanin deposits, significantly reducing the appearance of spots and blemishes.
Even Complexion: PICO Toning addresses uneven skin tones, restoring balance and brightness to your complexion.
Effective Melasma Treatment: Specifically designed to combat Melasma, PICO Toning offers hope to those struggling with this persistent hyperpigmentation issue.
Safe for All Skin Types: Its non-invasive, gentle approach makes PICO Toning a suitable option for every skin type, ensuring everyone can achieve their skincare goals.

questions

Is PICO Toning with HandPICO Laser available at all Skin Renewal branches?

How does the handPICO Laser works?

The handPICO Laser operates through the generation of minute laser-induced optical breakdowns (LIOBs) within the skin. These LIOBs are localized plasma formations that occur when laser energy comes into contact with the skin's water molecules. The resulting shockwaves from the LIOBs not only shatter pigments but also promote collagen and elastin synthesis.

What can be expected after a PICO Laser Treatment?

During a handPICO Laser treatment, the laser handpiece will be moved over the skin in a sweeping motion. You may feel a mild tingling or snapping sensation as the laser pulses are delivered. The treatment is typically expeditious, and most areas can be treated in just a few minutes.

What is the after-care procedure for a PICO Laser Treatment?

After a HandPICO Laser treatment, it is important to keep the treated area clean and moisturised. You will also be advised to avoid sun exposure for a few weeks and use a good SPF.
