PicoSure Pro in Penang | CANVAS Medical Clinic
The next-generation picosecond laser for pigmentation and clearer skin — physician-led PicoSure Pro at our Gurney Walk clinic in George Town. Ultra-short pulses shatter pigment and switch on the skin's own renewal, treating melasma-prone pigment, acne scars, pores and tattoos with little to no downtime.
What is PicoSure Pro?
PicoSure Pro is an advanced picosecond laser by Cynosure — a step up from earlier nanosecond and Q-switched systems. It delivers its main 755 nm wavelength (with optional 532 nm and 1064 nm) in pulses measured in picoseconds, one trillionth of a second. At that speed the energy creates a photoacoustic effect — a pressure wave that shatters pigment into tiny particles and activates the skin's own repair — rather than relying on prolonged heat.
At CANVAS Medical Clinic in George Town, Penang, PicoSure Pro is selected and supervised by our physicians. A Flat Lens fragments epidermal and dermal pigment for a clearer, more even tone, while the focus lens targets wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars and enlarged pores — skin revitalisation with negligible thermal damage.
How it works
- Consultation & skin assessment. A CANVAS physician examines your skin and concern — pigment, texture or tattoo — and confirms PicoSure Pro is appropriate for your skin tone.
- Lens & settings selection. The wavelength, lens and energy are chosen for the target: a flat lens for pigment, the focus lens for revitalising texture, scars and pores.
- Treatment. The handpiece delivers picosecond pulses; most patients describe a light snapping sensation. Sessions are quick and comfortable, with numbing used where needed.
- Aftercare & series. We guide sun protection and skincare, and plan a series spaced a few weeks apart for gradual, natural-looking clearing.
Benefits
Precision pigment clearing
Picosecond pulses shatter sunspots and uneven pigment with less heat to surrounding skin.
Suited to stubborn pigment
One of the few picosecond platforms indicated for melasma, nevus of Ota and Hori's nevus.
Skin revitalisation
The focus lens smooths acne scars, softens fine lines and refines pores.
Effective tattoo removal
755 nm clears black, blue and green inks; optional 532 nm targets warm tones.
Comfort & little downtime
A photoacoustic effect means quick sessions and minimal recovery.
Many skin tones
Physician-set protocols suit the diverse skin types seen across Penang.
Who it's for
PicoSure Pro suits a wide range of concerns, but suitability is always confirmed at consultation. You may be a good candidate if you want to:
- Fade sunspots, freckles and uneven pigmentation
- Address melasma-prone pigment with a careful, physician-led plan
- Soften the look of acne scars and enlarged pores
- Revitalise dull skin for a clearer, brighter tone
- Remove an unwanted tattoo
- Improve skin with little to no downtime
PicoSure Pro is not suitable during pregnancy, over active infection in the area, or with certain photosensitising medications and conditions. Your physician will confirm your suitability and expectations at consultation.
PicoSure Pro vs other lasers
PicoSure Pro is a picosecond laser that shatters pigment with a photoacoustic effect and revitalises skin — ideal for pigmentation, melasma-prone concerns and tattoos with minimal downtime. Dermablate is an ablative resurfacing laser for deeper texture and scarring, with more recovery. MultiFrax is a fractional laser that resurfaces texture, pigment and sun damage across two wavelengths.
Pigment, tone and tattoos with little downtime: PicoSure Pro. Fractional resurfacing for texture and scars: MultiFrax or Dermablate. Many skin plans combine them, and your CANVAS physician will sequence what your skin needs.
