The PicoStar uses the most modern technology for the removal of tattoos, pigmented lesions and permanent makeup. Thanks to the highest energy and shortest pulses the treatment with the PicoStar is fast, gentle and does not leave any scars. It is one of the fastest and most reliable PICO systems on the market. The ultra-short pulses allow bursting of the pigment particles without any thermal side effects or scars. This increases patient comfort and provides greater flexibility and efficiency. The amount of time it takes to fully remove or fade a tattoo (or permanent makeup) depends on many factors, which will be explained to you during your consultation.

Regenerative Skin Therapy (Non-Laser)

Please note that these appointments require completion of an Aesthetic Consultation with a Doctor.

Laser hair removal removes unwanted hair by damaging the root and preventing re-growth. The light targets the melanin or darker pigment of the hair and the heat damages the cells responsible for re-growth resulting in dramatic reduction in the treated area. Although heat is produced, Asclepion technologies includes a powerful skin-cooling element providing a more comfortable client experience.

If you have not received this treatment at Skin Focus we require you to book a complimentary consultation with Nell to see if laser hair removal is right for you.

We offer package pricing for laser hair for all areas. Pricing is 7 treatments for the price of 6. Custom packages available.
