PicoSure Pro offers a comfortable solution for those looking to restore their skin’s natural appearance. Results can be seen after just a few sessions for achieving clearer, healthier skin.
What to Expect
Before undergoing a laser treatment it's essential to consult to determine the best treatment plan for your skin type and concerns.
You'll wear protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser light during the treatment. The treatment duration and experience depend on the type of laser and the extent of the area being treated.
The treatment follows a structured protocol to ensure safety and effectiveness. An Initial Consultation is required to assess skin type, identify specific areas of concern and discuss treatment benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Picosure Pro?
PicoSure Pro is an advanced laser technology designed for a variety of skin treatments, including vascular lesion removal. It uses ultra-short laser pulses to target and treat visible blood vessels in the skin with minimal discomfort and downtime.
How does Picosure Pro remove vascular lesions?
PicoSure Pro works by delivering precise laser energy that targets the haemoglobin in blood vessels, causing them to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body. Over time, the treated vessels fade, resulting in a more even skin tone.
What types of vascular lesions can be treated?
PicoSure Pro can effectively treat a range of vascular lesions, including:
- Spider veins
- Telangiectasias (broken capillaries)
- Port-wine stains
- Redness from rosacea
- Cherry angiomas
Is the treatment safe?
Yes, Picosure Pro is considered safe for most skin types. It uses precise, non-thermal laser pulses that minimise the risk of damaging surrounding tissue, reducing the chance of side effects.
Does the treatment hurt?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during Picosure Pro treatments. Some describe it as a sensation similar to a rubber band snap against the skin. A topical anaesthetic and cooling device can be used to enhance comfort.
Who is a good candidate for Picosure Pro vascular lesion removal?
Most individuals with visible vascular lesions are good candidates for Picosure Pro. It is suitable for both lighter and darker skin tones, though a consultation is recommended to determine if this treatment is right for you.
Pre + Post
How do I prepare for the treatment?
To prepare for your Picosure Pro treatment:
- Avoid sun exposure or tanning products for at least two weeks.
- Discontinue any skin products containing retinoids or acids.
- Inform your therapist of any medications or health conditions that may affect the treatment.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments needed depends on the size and type of vascular lesion, as well as individual skin response. Smaller lesions may only require 1-2 sessions, while larger or more stubborn lesions may need additional treatments.
What should I expect after the treatment?
After a session, the treated area may appear red or swollen for a few hours to a couple of days. Mild bruising may also occur but usually resolves within a week. The vascular lesion will typically darken and then fade over time.
Is there any downtime?
There is minimal downtime with Picosure Pro. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment. It is advisable to avoid direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect the treated area.
Are the results permanent?
For most vascular lesions, once the treated blood vessels are reabsorbed by the body, they do not return. However, new blood vessels may form over time, especially if the underlying causes (such as rosacea or sun damage) persist.
Effects
Are there any side effects?
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and bruising in the treated area. Rare side effects may include changes in skin pigmentation or scarring. These risks can be minimised by following post-treatment care instructions.
Results
Can I combine Picosure Pro with other treatments?
Yes, Picosure Pro can be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as skin resurfacing, pigmentation removal, or cosmetic aesthetics, to achieve comprehensive skin rejuvenation. We can recommend the best approach based on your goals.
How soon will I see results?
Some patients notice improvements in vascular lesions after just one treatment, with full results appearing over several weeks as the body processes the treated blood vessels.
Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.
