1064nm Pico Laser
1064nm Pico Laser is a cutting-edge laser technology primarily used for skin rejuvenation, pigmentation removal, and tightening. It operates on pico-second technology, which means it delivers ultra-short pulses of laser energy in trillionths of a second (pico-seconds). This rapid pulse duration allows the laser to break down skin imperfections without causing significant thermal damage to the surrounding tissues.
Key Technology of PicoHi Laser
1) Pico-Second Pulse Duration
The hallmark of the PicoHi laser is its incredibly short pulse duration. Traditional lasers typically operate in nanoseconds, while the PicoHi laser operates in picoseconds (one trillionth of a second). These ultra-short bursts of energy can effectively target and fragment pigments in the skin without causing heat damage to the surrounding tissue. This minimizes the risk of side effects like burns or scarring and promotes faster healing.
2) Photoacoustic Effect
Instead of relying primarily on thermal energy like traditional lasers, the PicoHi laser uses a photoacoustic effect. The short pulse duration delivers energy so quickly that it creates a mechanical or acoustic shockwave effect that breaks down pigmentation (melanin) and stimulates the skin’s natural regenerative processes. This effect not only removes pigmentation but also stimulates collagen production for skin tightening.
3) Wavelength Versatility
The PicoHi laser typically operates at multiple wavelengths, such as 1064nm and 532nm. These wavelengths allow the laser to treat various skin conditions, including pigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles, while being safe for a wide range of skin tones.
PicoHi leverages the thermoacoustic effect created by picosecond laser technology to achieve effective skin tightening. By delivering rapid, high-intensity pulses of laser energy, PicoHi induces controlled micro-damage that stimulates collagen production and skin remodeling. This process leads to firmer, tighter skin with improved texture and tone. PicoHi is suitable for individuals with skin laxity, fine lines, uneven texture, and those seeking a precise, minimally invasive solution for skin rejuvenation.
Benefits:
Enhanced Collagen Production:
Stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin fibers, leading to improved skin firmness and elasticity.
Effective Skin Tightening:
Creates controlled micro-damage that tightens and lifts the skin, reducing the appearance of sagging and laxity.
Improved Skin Texture and Tone:
Refines skin texture and evens out skin tone by promoting the natural healing processes.
Minimized Heat Damage:
Reduces the risk of excessive heat damage to surrounding tissues, making the treatment safer and more comfortable.
Versatility:
Can be used on various skin types and tones, providing effective results for different skin concerns.
Minimal Downtime:
The procedure typically involves minimal discomfort and recovery time, allowing patients to resume daily activities quickly.
How does it work?
How 1064nm Pico Laser Creates Thermoacoustic Results for Skin Tightening
Picosecond Laser Pulses
PicoHi delivers laser energy in ultra-short pulses, each lasting just a picosecond (one trillionth of a second). This rapid energy delivery is essential for the thermoacoustic effect. The short pulse duration results in high peak energy and intense thermal impact in a very short time frame, which is critical for generating the thermoacoustic effect.
Thermoacoustic Effect
When the picosecond laser pulses are absorbed by the skin, they create a rapid, localized increase in temperature. This thermal energy is converted into acoustic (sound) waves within the skin. The thermoacoustic effect generates micro-damage in the targeted dermal layers. This micro-damage triggers a wound-healing response, stimulating collagen production and remodeling.
Collagen Stimulation and Remodeling
The acoustic waves and thermal energy create controlled micro-injuries in the dermis without affecting the surrounding tissues. These micro-injuries induce a natural healing response in the skin. As the skin heals, it produces new collagen and elastin fibers. This process results in tightened and firmed skin, improved elasticity, and overall rejuvenation.
Precision and Safety
1064nm Pico Laser’s picosecond pulses allow for precise targeting of specific skin layers, minimizing damage to surrounding tissues and reducing the risk of complications. This precision ensures effective treatment with minimal risk of side effects and downtime.
Individuals prefer a minimally invasive procedure with minimal downtime and quick recovery that seek for a comprehensive rejuvenation to improve skin firmness, reduce skin sagging and laxity are recommended to get the treatment.
Initial Treatment Course
Typically involves 2 to 4 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart to allow for optimal collagen stimulation and skin tightening.
Maintenance Treatments
To maintain results, maintenance sessions are generally recommended every 6 to 12 months, depending on individual skin condition and desired outcomes.
