In the ever-evolving world of aesthetic treatments, Pico Laser has emerged as a revolutionary solution for tackling stubborn pigmentation, acne scars, enlarged pores, and signs of aging—with minimal downtime and impressive results. Unlike traditional lasers, Pico Laser delivers ultra-short bursts of energy in picoseconds, making it more precise, less invasive, and safer for various skin tones. At Westwood Clinic, this advanced technology is paired with expert care to ensure safe, effective, and personalised results. Whether you’re dealing with uneven skin tone or looking to achieve smoother, brighter skin, Pico Laser at Westwood Clinic might just be the game-changer your skin needs. In this guide, we’ll walk you through what to expect before, during, and after your treatment—so you can feel confident and informed every step of the way.
Pico Laser is a cutting-edge aesthetic technology that uses picosecond pulses—that’s one trillionth of a second—to target and shatter pigment particles deep within the skin.

This means it breaks down pigmentation more precisely and with significantly less damage to the surrounding tissue, resulting in faster recovery and minimal discomfort.
