Indications
PicoWay Resolve is an advance laser treatment that treats acne scars, wrinkles, dark spots (also known as pigmentation or benign pigmented lesions). There is little to no downtime since the laser is able to get great results from treating the top layer of skin and not having to go into the deeper layers.
Procedure
PicoWay Resolve is an ultra-short, picosecond laser that reaches below the surface of the skin to stimulate production of collagen and elastin, without breaking the outermost layer of the skin. As we age, we lose collagen and elastin. The PicoWay Resolve helps to add these back into your skin resulting in less fine lines and improvement in acne scars.
For dark spots, PicoWay reaches just below the skin’s surface to break unwanted dark spots into tiny particles. PicoWay is highly effective in skin pigment removal. Many patients see visible improvement following the first treatment.
