PicoSure (Cynosure) — world's first picosecond aesthetic laser
How It Works
How PicoSure Works
See Beyond Beauty uses PicoSure's picosecond pulse width, which means each energy burst lasts just trillionths of a second, to create a photomechanical effect that shatters pigment without excessive heat.
Patients frustrated by stubborn pigment trust PicoSure's PressureWave technology — it targets the chromophore, the specific pigment molecule that absorbs laser energy, converting light into pressure that breaks apart unwanted color without heat damage.
PicoSure activates the skin's natural cell signaling, stimulating new collagen and elastin production without the thermal damage of traditional lasers.
At See Beyond Beauty, we use PicoSure for two distinct treatment tracks: skin rejuvenation (melasma, brown spots, rosacea, acne scars, fine wrinkles) and tattoo removal (faster clearance, fewer sessions, all ink colors). This versatility makes it one of the most valuable devices in our laser suite.
Treatment Areas
Full face, specific pigmented areas (hands, chest), tattoo removal (all body areas)
Your Treatment
What to Expect
See Beyond Beauty's PicoSure process begins with a thorough skin analysis.
Skin Analysis
Your provider evaluates your skin type, pigmentation patterns, and treatment goals. We determine whether the rejuvenation or pigment-targeting protocol is appropriate for your concerns.
Preparation
Your provider cleanses the treatment area and places protective eye shields. We apply topical numbing based on the treatment intensity and your comfort preference.
Laser Treatment
The PicoSure handpiece delivers rapid pulses across the treatment area. You may feel a warm snapping sensation. A full-face rejuvenation session takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
Post-Treatment
Your provider applies a soothing serum and broad-spectrum sunscreen. Mild redness may last a few hours. Wear daily SPF for the following weeks to protect the treated skin.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between picosecond and nanosecond lasers?
Picosecond lasers deliver energy 100 times faster than nanosecond lasers. This speed creates a photomechanical effect that shatters pigment more efficiently with less heat — meaning better results with less downtime and lower risk of complications.
Can PicoSure treat melasma?
Yes. PicoSure's gentle photomechanical approach is well-suited for melasma, which can worsen with heat-based treatments. Our providers carefully calibrate the settings for melasma patients to break up pigment without triggering rebound darkening.
How many treatments for sun damage?
Most patients see significant improvement in sun damage and age spots after 1 to 3 sessions. Deeper or more extensive pigmentation may require additional sessions. Your provider will set realistic expectations during your consultation.
Is PicoSure safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, when properly calibrated by an experienced provider. PicoSure's photomechanical mechanism reduces the risk of hyperpigmentation that thermal lasers can cause in darker skin. Our providers adjust settings based on your skin type for safe, effective treatment.
Can I get a PicoSure treatment during my lunch break?
Absolutely. A full-face rejuvenation session takes only 15 to 20 minutes, and you can wear makeup and return to normal activities immediately. It is one of our most popular quick treatments.
