Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Asclepion PicoStar laser used for?
The Asclepion PicoStar laser is primarily used for tattoo removal, pigmentation treatment, and skin rejuvenation. It is designed to effectively target and break down pigments in the skin with minimal damage to surrounding tissues.
How does the PicoStar laser differ from other lasers in aesthetic medicine?
The PicoStar laser stands out due to its ultra-short pulse duration of less than 300 picoseconds. This allows it to fragment pigments into much smaller particles compared to traditional nanosecond lasers, leading to more efficient and gentler treatments with faster pigment removal.
What are the key features of the PicoStar laser?
Key features include a pulse duration of 300 ps, power up to 2.7 GW, an intuitive 10.1” LCD touchscreen, automatic spot size detection, a uniform beam profile for less pain and lower bleeding, a 360° articulated mirror arm for flexibility, and various handpieces for different applications.
Is the PicoStar laser safe for all skin types?
While picosecond lasers are generally safe, caution is advised for darker skin types (Fitzpatrick skin types 4-6) due to a higher risk of side effects such as hyperpigmentation. However, with proper settings and techniques, the PicoStar can be used effectively on a range of skin types.
How many sessions are typically required for tattoo removal with the PicoStar laser?
The number of sessions required varies depending on factors such as the size, color, and age of the tattoo. Generally, picosecond lasers like the PicoStar require fewer sessions than traditional nanosecond lasers, often ranging from 3 to 10 sessions.
What are the benefits of using the PicoStar laser for pigmentation treatment?
The PicoStar laser offers effective removal of various pigmented lesions with fewer treatment sessions and a reduced risk of side effects. Its ultra-short pulses ensure precise targeting of pigments while minimizing thermal damage to surrounding skin.
