Pico Laser is one of the most advanced aesthetic and medical laser devices available today.

Pico Laser represents a generational leap in laser technology, moving beyond the limitations of traditional Q-switched and ablative lasers to deliver unmatched precision, safety and results.

The name comes from the unit of time it operates in: picoseconds. A picosecond is one trillionth of a second, making Pico Laser thousands of times faster than conventional nanosecond lasers. This extraordinary speed is the foundation of everything that makes Pico Laser different.

Key Principle

Pico Laser uses a photo-acoustic pressure wave effect rather than photothermal heat energy. This means it shatters pigment mechanically, not by burning it, resulting in safer and more precise treatment with minimal risk to surrounding tissue.

Step-by-Step Pico Laser Process

Understanding the mechanism behind Pico Laser helps explain why it outperforms older technologies across many pigmentation, tattoo and skin rejuvenation protocols.

01

Laser Delivery

Concentrated laser energy is directed at the target area with pinpoint accuracy.

02

Pigment Absorption

Melanin in the skin or tattoo ink absorbs the selected laser wavelength.

03

Photo-Acoustic Shattering

The ultra-fast pulse creates a shockwave that breaks pigment into micro-fine particles without significant heat transfer.

04

Natural Elimination

The lymphatic system identifies these tiny particles as waste and gradually clears them naturally over days to weeks.

05

Skin Renewal

As pigment clears, the skin undergoes natural regeneration with collagen and elastin support for improved tone and texture.

Pico Laser vs Traditional Q-Switched Laser

Pico Laser is designed to deliver faster energy in shorter bursts, so pigment is fragmented with pressure waves rather than heavy heat. This helps reduce downtime and improves safety for Indian skin tones.

Four Wavelengths for Different Skin Concerns

Pico Laser operates across distinct wavelengths, each matched to specific pigment depths, ink colors and skin goals.

1064 nmNd:YAG

Targets deep melanin and dark ink. Ideal for deep pigmentation, dark tattoos and skin toning.

532 nmKTP / Frequency Doubled

Targets superficial pigmentation. Ideal for freckles, sunspots, redness and red or yellow tattoo ink.

755 nmAlexandrite

Targets melasma and mixed ink. Ideal for melasma, multi-colored tattoos and moderate pigmentation.

1320 nmLong-pulse Nd:YAG

Targets the dermal collagen layer. Ideal for carbon facial, skin rejuvenation and pore refinement.

Core Pico Laser Treatments at Dr. Ravneet Skin Clinic

The Pico Laser is a multi-functional platform used for five core treatment categories with personalised settings and dermatologist-led planning.

01

Tattoo Removal

Wavelength: 1064 nm / 532 nm / 755 nm | Sessions: 4 to 10 | Duration: 20 to 40 min | Discomfort: Moderate

Pico Laser is the gold standard in tattoo removal today. It is faster, more thorough and capable of removing ink colors that older lasers often cannot address.

  • Targets all ink colors including resistant blue, green and purple
  • Shatters ink into particles small enough for immune clearance
  • Requires fewer sessions compared to many Q-switched protocols
  • Suitable for all skin types with reduced risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation
  • Session intervals of 6 to 8 weeks support natural ink clearance
  • Partial fading is also possible for cover-up preparation
02

Carbon Laser Facial (Hollywood Peel)

Wavelength: 1320 nm | Sessions: 4 to 6 monthly | Duration: 20 to 30 min | Discomfort: Mild

A non-invasive, zero-downtime treatment combining medical-grade carbon lotion with Pico laser energy for immediate glow and deep skin purification.

  • Carbon lotion penetrates deep into pores
  • Laser vaporizes carbon and removes impurities with it
  • Deeply cleanses pores, removes blackheads and controls oil production
  • Improves uneven skin texture and refines skin surface
  • Provides immediate brightness and luminosity
  • Ideal for acne-prone, oily, dull skin and enlarged pores
03

Laser Toning & Skin Rejuvenation

Wavelength: 1064 nm / 532 nm | Sessions: 6 to 8 bi-weekly | Duration: 15 to 25 min | Discomfort: Mild

A low-fluence, highly controlled treatment for gradual pigmentation correction, skin radiance, collagen support and improved overall texture.

  • Targets superficial and deep pigmentation, melasma, post-acne marks and sun damage
  • Delivers uniform energy for even skin tone
  • Stimulates natural collagen and elastin production
  • Reduces pore size and refines texture
  • Progressive brightening with minimal rebound risk
  • Safe for Indian and South Asian skin tones throughout the year
04

Lip Depigmentation Treatment

Wavelength: 532 nm / 1064 nm | Sessions: 3 to 6 | Duration: 15 to 20 min | Discomfort: Mild to moderate

A specialised protocol for darkened or hyperpigmented lips, helping restore a natural rosy tone through precise and controlled laser energy.

  • Targets melanin deposits caused by sun exposure, smoking, dehydration or genetics
  • Gradual lightening over multiple sessions for natural-looking results
  • Topical numbing is used for comfort when needed
  • Safe for delicate lip tissue without structural damage
  • Works on upper lip, lower lip and lip border
  • Results improve with SPF lip care and smoking cessation
05

Pigmentation & Melasma Treatment

Wavelength: 755 nm / 1064 nm / 532 nm | Sessions: 6 to 10 | Duration: 20 to 30 min | Discomfort: Mild

A dedicated protocol for melasma, freckles, sunspots and diffuse pigmentation, especially helpful for South Asian skin when planned carefully.

  • Combines multiple wavelengths for superficial and dermal pigmentation
  • Breaks down melanin clusters while reducing PIH risk
  • 755 nm Alexandrite wavelength supports melasma protocols
  • Gentle enough for sensitive and reactive skin types
  • Visible improvement often begins from session 3 to 4 onward
  • Best results are achieved with sun protection and prescribed topicals

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Pico Laser safe for Indian skin?

Yes. Pico Laser is one of the safest laser technologies for South Asian and Indian skin types when performed by a qualified dermatologist with proper wavelength selection and energy settings. Its photo-acoustic mechanism reduces the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation compared with older heat-heavy systems.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on the concern. Carbon facials typically require 4 to 6 sessions, laser toning and pigmentation usually need 6 to 10 sessions, and tattoo removal ranges from 4 to 10 or more sessions depending on ink depth, color and size.

Is the treatment painful?

Most treatments are well tolerated. Facial treatments feel like mild warmth with a snapping sensation. Tattoo removal is stronger, so topical numbing may be applied beforehand. Cooling support is used throughout sessions for comfort.

How long before I see results?

Carbon facial results can be visible immediately. Pigmentation and toning improvement often begins from session 3 to 4 onward. Tattoo fading is gradual as the body clears broken-down ink between sessions.

Can Pico Laser be combined with other treatments?

Yes. Pico Laser may be combined with treatments such as chemical peels, mesotherapy or topical brightening agents when clinically suitable. The dermatologist creates a customised combination plan based on your skin goals.

Is there downtime after treatment?

Downtime is minimal. Most patients experience mild redness or sensitivity for 24 to 48 hours. Makeup may usually be worn after 24 hours, while heat, steam, sun and strenuous exercise should be avoided initially.

What is the cost per session?

Session pricing varies by treatment type, treatment area and number of sessions required. Please contact Dr. Ravneet Skin Clinic for current pricing and a personalised treatment plan.
