Hello! Today I had my 3rd PicoSure laser treatment on my face (3 weeks apart). I have few acne scars on my cheeks I want to get rid of them also I would like to increase collagen production on my face. . My treatment was quick and took about 2 minutes. Is that enough? How long does it take to see the results of treatments?

Answer: PicoSure for Acne Scars Hello and thank you for your question. The PicoSure laser is has been developed and approved for tattoo ink removal, acne scars and any other blemishes you dislike. The PicoSure is FDA-approved and highly effective for removing regrettable tattoos and scars. Typically, one session for the face is about 10-15 mins. I recommend getting a in person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist.

Answer: PicoSure for scars and antiaging with Focus lens PicoSure is an amazing breakthrough technology for both tattoo removal and antiaging/scar treatment.For tattoo removal, the laser session can be very quick, if it's a small tattoo with topical anesthesia. For large tattoos that we first have to inject with lidocaine for anesthesia, and have multiple colors so multiple wavelengths (755nm and 532nm) are used, each treatment can take 45 minutes or more.For antiaging/scar treatment, the laser session is done using the Focus lens. This is more straighforward, no injections, one wavelength (755nm) is used. If it is a small area (just a scar or 2), it can take a few minutes. If it is the whole face for increased collagen production/reduction of fine lines, it generally takes ~10-15 minutes. It depends on how many pulses are used. For antiaging, I will generally treat with 6000-8000 pulses for the whole face.
