ClearLaze Pico

ClearLaze Pico is a laser treatment that removes unwanted tattoos. The specific wavelengths used during treatments can be adjusted to target different colors of ink. Darker colors, such as black and blue, are typically easier to remove than lighter colors like green and yellow. However, ClearLaze Pico technology is more effective at removing a wider range of ink colors than older tattoo removal technologies.

What to Expect at Your ClearLaze Pico Appointment

The appointment will start with a consultation, where your dermatology provider will asses your skin and discuss your cosmetic goals. On the day of treatment, the targeted area will be cleaned, and you’ll wear protective eye shields. The ClearLaze Pico device delivers short bursts of laser energy, which may feel like tiny elastic bands snapping against your skin, typically lasting 15 to 30 minutes. Post-treatment, a cooling device or gel may be applied to soothe your skin, which might appear red and feel warm for a few hours to a couple of days.

ClearLaze Pico Maintenance Reccomendations

To maintain the results of ClearLaze Pico treatments, it is essential to follow a few key recommendations:
  • Always use a high SPF sunscreen to protect your skin from UV damage, which can reverse the benefits of the treatment.
  • Adhere to a consistent skincare routine that includes gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and the use of products suitable for your skin type is crucial.
  • Avoid harsh exfoliants and skincare products that can irritate your skin.
  • Keep your skin hydrated by drinking plenty of water and using hydrating skincare products.
  • Schedule periodic maintenance treatments as recommended by your dermatology provider to prolong and enhance the results. 

ClearLaze Pico Maintenance Schedule

Multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results, and initial improvements are often seen shortly after the first treatment, with full results becoming apparent in the following weeks as your skin heals and rejuvenates. Follow these steps to ensure long-lasting results:
  • Initial Treatment Series: Complete the initial series of treatments as recommended by your dermatologist, usually spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart.
  • Follow all post-treatment care instructions, including avoiding sun exposure, using a high SPF sunscreen, and keeping the treated area clean and moisturized.
