PICOSURE FOCUS™ SKIN REMODELING

Non-Ablative Collagen Stimulation for Texture & Fine Wrinkles

PicoSure Focus™ laser skin remodeling is a non-ablative laser treatment designed to improve uneven skin texture, fine lines, and early wrinkles by stimulating the skin’s natural collagen and elastin repair processes.

At International Vein & Skin Institute (IVSI), PicoSure Focus™ treatments are personally performed by Jozef Tryzno, MD, with treatment parameters selected according to skin condition, treatment goals, and individual response.

HOW PICOSURE FOCUS™ WORKS

PicoSure Focus™ uses ultra-short picosecond laser pulses, measured in trillionths of a second, to deliver energy into the deeper layers of the skin without removing the surface layer.

Rather than relying on heat to resurface the skin, PicoSure Focus™ creates controlled photomechanical effects that:

Stimulate collagen and elastin remodeling
Improve skin texture and firmness
Preserve the outer skin layer

This approach allows skin remodeling without aggressive resurfacing.

FOCUS™ LENS ARRAY TECHNOLOGY

The Focus™ Lens Array concentrates laser energy into microscopic treatment zones beneath the skin surface.

This targeted delivery:

Activates the skin’s natural repair mechanisms
Improves texture and fine lines over time
Minimizes thermal injury to surrounding tissue

Because surface damage is limited, post-treatment skin reactions are typically mild and short-lived compared to traditional ablative lasers.

CONDITIONS COMMONLY TREATED

PicoSure Focus™ skin remodeling may be used to address:

Uneven skin texture
Fine lines and early wrinkles
Textural acne scarring

Treatment areas commonly include:

Face
Neck
Upper chest (V-neck area)

Treatment selection depends on skin thickness, condition severity, and overall skin health.

Patients seeking treatment specifically for acne scarring may also benefit from reviewing our Laser Treatment of Acne Scars page, which outlines condition-specific evaluation and treatment options.

TREATMENT EXPERIENCE

Patients often describe the sensation during treatment as brief prickling or snapping sensations. Sensitivity varies depending on the treatment area and individual tolerance.

Topical Anesthetic

Not routinely required
May be applied in-office approximately one hour before treatment for patient comfort

EXPECTED RESPONSE AND ACTIVITY

Following PicoSure Focus™ treatment:

Mild redness or tenderness typically resolves within 1–3 hours
In patients with sensitive skin, redness may persist up to 24 hours
Most patients return to normal daily activities the same day

Skin remodeling occurs gradually as collagen and elastin remodeling continues over time.

NUMBER OF TREATMENTS

As with most non-ablative skin remodeling procedures, multiple treatment sessions are typically required.

Treatment commonly involves a series of approximately 3–5 sessions, often spaced about 4 weeks apart. The number and spacing of treatments are individualized according to the skin condition and treatment response.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

PicoSure Focus™ is a non-ablative treatment and does not remove the skin surface
Results develop gradually and vary by individual
Multiple treatments are commonly required
PicoSure Focus™ does not treat vascular redness or active inflammatory skin conditions such as rosacea

Accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment selection are essential.
