What Is Pico Fractional Intense?
Pico Fractional Intense delivers the same trusted HandPICO picosecond micro-fractional technology as our standard Pico Fractional treatment—but at double the energy output. By increasing the fluence and spot density, Pico Fractional Intense creates a higher concentration of microscopic channels in the skin, stimulating a more robust collagen and elastin response. This two-fold boost in power makes the treatment especially effective for deep acne scars, pronounced wrinkles and severe sun damage, all while maintaining the safety and controlled fractional delivery that minimises downtime.
Enhanced Technology & Intensity
- High-Energy Picosecond Pulses: Increased fluence for a higher micro-injury density, targeting deeper dermal layers.
- Micro-Fractional Delivery: Precise fractional beam split maintains safety by sparing surrounding tissue, even at higher energy levels.
- Dual Wavelength Capability: It continues to use 1064 nm and 532 nm for broad pigment targeting, excluding melasma.
- HandPICO Handpiece Excellence: Uniform, intense micro-spot distribution for consistent depth and coverage across the treatment zone.
Indications & Key Benefits
Pico Fractional Intense is specifically indicated for more severe skin concerns:
Safety & Suitability
- Minimised Thermal Load: Despite higher fluence, fractional delivery prevents bulk heating and reduces the risk of burns.
- Expert Oversight: Only our Skin Renewal doctors can recommend the treatment, which our qualified aesthetic therapists then perform.
- Post-Treatment Care: Strict sun avoidance and the use of high-factor SPF are essential; mild dryness or flaking may occur.
- Not for Melasma: Avoided in melasma areas due to high-intensity rebound hyperpigmentation risk.
