Who Is a Good Candidate 
for PicoWay?

PicoWay may be a good fit for adults noticing:

  • Sun spots, freckles, or age spots
  • Melasma or other stubbornpigmentation
  • Acne scarring or uneven texture
  • Fine lines and early sun damage
  • An unwanted tattoo they would like faded or removed
  • Skin tone concerns that made other lasers feel too risky

How PicoWay Works

PicoWay delivers laser energy in ultra-short picosecond pulses, fast enough to create a photoacoustic effect instead of a heat-based one. That controlled shockwave breaks pigment and tattoo ink into fragments small enough for the body to clear naturally, while a dedicated Resolve handpiece stimulates new collagen and elastin for acne scars and fine lines.

Because the treatment relies on mechanical energy rather than heat, most sessions are quick and comfortable. Your provider selects the wavelength and handpiece suited to your skin tone and your goal, and real-time skin assessment helps fine-tune settings throughout your appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does PicoWay treatment take at FABrx Studio?
Most sessions run about 15 to 30 minutes, though timing can vary depending on the treatment area and the concern being treated. Your provider will map out a plan and session count based on your skin and your goals.
Downtime is minimal for most PicoWay treatments, and most patients return to their normal routine the same day. Tattoo removal is the exception, since the treated area needs a few days of care while it heals.
Most patients describe a mild snapping sensation rather than significant pain. Tattoo removal tends to be the least comfortable of the PicoWay treatments, while pigment and acne scar sessions are generally well tolerated without anesthesia.
Many patients notice an improvement in tone and texture after their first session, though full results depend on the concern being treated. Pigment and tattoo removal usually need a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart.
All PicoWay treatments at FABrx Studio are performed by providers trained and certified by Dr. Marie V. Hayag, MD, FAAD.
Yes. PicoWay is often paired with treatments like Morpheus8 or XERF to address multiple concerns as part of one plan. Your provider will recommend a sequence based on your skin and your goals.
