Dr. Harold Lancer, always at the forefront of emerging technology in medical aesthetic devices, introduces his use of PicoWay - a new, ultra-fast laser with multiple applications reflecting the doctor's own revolutionary approach to skin care. PicoWay, was originally designed for the removal of multi-color tattoos, however, Dr. Lancer has pioneered the use of the device for the correction of fine lines and wrinkles as well as the improvement of skin texture and tone – all with minimal discomfort and minimized downtime.
Dr. Lancer's Beverly Hills clinic is the first to offer this revolutionary technology in the United States, where the device is being trialed with transformative results in skin retexturization. This renowned dermatologist's interest in PicoWay was fueled by the laser's one of a kind action on the skin – one that prompts the body to kick start its ability for self repair - echoing Dr. Lancer's own "Lancer Skincare Method" philosophy and approach to skin rejuvenation. The Lancer Skincare Method is predicted on the same ideology of skin self-repair, making the introduction of PicoWay technology a very natural extension of his existing methodology.
PicoWay's unique mode of photo-acoustic action is based on delivering ultra-short picosecond pulses of energy to the tissue, which it does at a rate of a trillionth of a second per pulse – 1000 times faster than other lasers in its class. These bursts of energy create a photo-mechanical impact which breaks up tattoo ink or pigmentation into minuscule, more easily eliminated particles from the skin. At the same time that this pico-second firing action triggers the body's natural pigment flushing system to remove ink, it also creates a cascade of healing enzyme repair mechanisms which allow the body to heal quickly.
"The precise heat of the PicoWay picosend laser, delivered in intensely rapid repetition, signals the body's own self-repair mechanisms stimulating collagen production without damaging tissue. It's the most effective device I have seen to date for ink removal. This breakthrough technology also allows us to treat and improve the texture of skin without the damage of traditional ablative lasers, their associated discomfort or downtime," says Lancer.
PicoWay has the highest peak power and shortest duration of any picosecond device on the market, delivering superior efficacy, safety and comfort. PicoWay's unique picosecond technology provides full flexibility to adjust wavelength, energy, spot size and repetition rate, providing customizable treatments with outstanding clinical results.
