Cynosure’s PicoSure laser uses a photomechanical action that is safe and effective for all skin types and ethnicities. Unlike traditional laser that use heat and can, in some cases, make pigment worse or even cause hyperpigmentation, the PicoSure has no such risk and can instead safely treat pigment on darker skin tones and even treat melasma.
A No-Downtime Alternative
Since the PicoSure laser emits less heat than older, traditional lasers, this provides a more comfortable treatment with faster results and virtually no downtime.
