How Does Alexandrite Picosecond Laser Work? What Makes It Unique and Effective?

Unique 755 nm Wavelength

Alexandrite Picosecond Laser is known for its advanced technology and effectiveness in skin rejuvenation, tattoo removal, and treatment of pigmentary conditions. This laser technology delivers ultra-short pulse bursts of energy to the skin in trillionths of a second to gently target and eliminate pigment without harming the surrounding skin.

While many lasers typically focus on one wavelength, Alexandrite Picosecond Laser is the only pico laser that uses a 755 nm wavelength that is specifically designed to treat pigmentation due to its high affinity for melanin compared to blood, allowing for precise targeting of melanin while preserving surrounding blood vessels.

Other picosecond lasers use the 1064 nm wavelength to penetrate deeper layers, making it suitable for a wider range of skin types and conditions. Meanwhile, 532 nm is used to treat superficial pigmentation like freckles and sunspots.

Patented PressureWave™ Technology

The PressureWave™ technology converts laser energy into gentle pressure, creating a photomechanical impact that shatters pigment particles into tiny fragments that are more rapidly absorbed and eliminated naturally by the body. This approach avoids excessive heat and allows for more precise targeting of pigmentary conditions. The result is a more effective and comfortable treatment.

Special Lens: Focus Lens Array (FLA)

Alexandrite Picosecond Laser incorporates the patented Focus Lens Array, an advanced attachment with a unique hexagonal lens design that directs energy into a smaller, more focused area, making it 20 times more powerful than normal lens. This allows for targeted treatment, effectively lightening and breaking down stubborn pigments and refining pores while stimulating collagen and elastin production for enhanced skin rejuvenation.

Targets Acne and Scarring

Destroys acne-causing bacteria and is effective for reducing acne scars and large pores while boosting skin texture and tone.

How It Works:

Short Pico Pulses:
Delivers laser pulses 10 times shorter in duration than traditional Q-switched lasers, reducing heat and minimising skin damage.

Collagen Regeneration:
Alexandrite Picosecond Laser Focus Lens Array delivers targeted energy to the dermis layer to stimulate collagen regeneration in specific spots to improve acne scars and skin texture, all without damaging the skin’s surface.

Effective for Pigmentation:

Treats dark spots, age spots, sun spots, freckles, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and other skin discolourations

How It Works:

Breaks up pigmentation particles, which are then absorbed and eliminated by the body, resulting in a brighter and more even skin tone.

Collagen Production:

Stimulates collagen and elastin production to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and signs of aging.

How It Works:

Alexandrite Picosecond Laser prompts cells to release proteins that enhance collagen and elastin production, smoothing and revitalising the skin.

Effective for All Tattoos:

Suitable for all skin types and tattoo colors, including stubborn and multicoloured tattoos.

How It Works:

Laser energy targets and breaks down ink particles, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.

Who is Suitable for Alexandrite Picosecond Laser Treatments?

Alexandrite Picosecond Laser is ideal for individuals seeking to reduce dark spots, fine lines, acne scars, minimise pores or even out skin tone with minimal downtime and discomfort. Its ultra-short laser pulses, 10 times shorter than traditional Q-switched lasers, deliver more shots with less heat, reducing skin damage and speeding up recovery. Ideal for those seeking effective results without the extended recovery time associated with traditional lasers.

Alexandrite Picosecond Laser is a versatile laser treatment which can also be used on various areas, including the face, neck, décolleté, arms, hands, legs, and body.
