PicoSure Laser Edmonton
The PicoSure laser is a non-invasive picosecond laser treatment offered at our Dermapure clinics in Edmonton. The device delivers ultra-short bursts of laser energy that act primarily through a photomechanical effect rather than heat alone, supporting the breakdown of unwanted pigment and skin renewal.
PicoSure can help address brown spots, sun damage, freckles, pigmented lesions, fine lines and acne scars on the face, with a treatment approach that is suitable for a wide range of skin types. The treatment may be received on its own or as part of a personalized plan that pairs it with complementary in-clinic options such as medical-grade skincare protocols, depending on individual goals and skin condition.
Because every patient’s skin, concerns and medical history are different, PicoSure laser at our Dermapure clinics in Edmonton always begins with a personalized consultation. Together with your specialist, you will assess whether the PicoSure laser is the most appropriate option for you and discuss a realistic treatment plan, the expected results and the possible side effects.

Follow-Up & Maintenance
To improve the look of your skin and achieve a more youthful appearance by removing pigmented lesions will require only a few treatments. Darker, deeper and larger pigmented lesions may require additional treatments; however during the consultation, your provider will discuss treatment expectations with you. You will see initial results between day 7 and 10 after your PicoSure treatment, but your skin will continue to improve over time. Most patients see the greatest improvement in the first 4 to 6 weeks.* For the first 24 hours, you should keep your skin protected according to post-treatment recommendations, but after that you can resume your normal activities. After the first 24 hours, you will be able to put on makeup. Prolong your results by keeping your healthy skin protected with sunscreen daily. *Individual results may vary.
Contraindications
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should delay this type of treatment, as well as anyone who has received Accutane treatment in the past 6 months. Patients who have been exposed to the sun, booth tanning, have used self-tanning products or are taking photo-sensitizing medication will have to delay the treatment.
