Pico Dual™ is the world’s first and only Pico laser machine featuring a unique combination of dual-lamp, dual-rod, and smart-pulse technology. This triple innovation allows for:

• Higher energy output

• Deeper and more uniform skin penetration

• Greater comfort and faster recovery All while delivering exceptional results for pigment and rejuvenation.

Pico Dual™ is effective in treating a wide range of concerns, including:

• Stubborn pigmentation (melasma, sunspots and others)

• Acne scars and textural irregularities

• Uneven skin tone

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• General skin rejuvenation

Thanks to our smart-pulse technology, treatments are much more comfortable compared to traditional lasers. Most patients describe the sensation as mild tingling or a light snap on the skin. Numbing cream is typically not required.

Treatment times vary depending on the area being treated, but most sessions take between 5 to 30 minutes. There’s minimal to no downtime, so clients can often return to normal activities right after.

Most clients see visible improvement after just a few sessions. However, a full treatment plan usually consists of 8 to 12 sessions, spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart, depending on the concern being treated.

Minimal to none. The gentler energy delivery of Pico Dual significantly reduces skin trauma, resulting in:

• Mild redness that typically fades within hours

• Quick return to daily activities

• No major peeling or discomfort

• Before: Avoid sun exposure, stop using harsh skincare (e.g., retinoids, acids) for a few days, and ensure the treatment area of the skin is well-hydrated.

• After: Keep the treated area clean, use gentle skincare, and apply sunscreen regularly. Your practitioner will provide personalized aftercare instructions.

Absolutely. The smart-pulse mechanism delivers energy in a way that’s gentler on the skin, making it ideal for those with sensitivity or previously poor experiences with laser treatments.
