PicoSure Focus treatment in Marylebone at Dr Joney De Souza Skin and Laser clinic.
Treatment Summary
PicoSure is one of the most sophisticated facial rejuvenation lasers available today. At Dr Joney De Souza Clinic in Marylebone, we use Picosure to treat pigmentation, acne scarring, dullness, fine lines and even unwanted facial tattoos with exceptional precision and minimal downtime. Its ultra-fast picosecond pulses allow us to rejuvenate the skin gently yet effectively while preserving the skin’s natural integrity and luminosity.
Uneven pigmentation is one of the most common concerns for facial rejuvenation. Sun exposure, hormonal fluctuations and past inflammation can all leave the skin marked or uneven.
PicoSure targets facial pigment with remarkable precision. The picosecond pulses break pigment into tiny particles that the body naturally clears over time. This technique allows us to improve:
Age spots and sun-induced pigmentation
Melasma (with appropriate protocols)
Freckles and diffuse discolouration
Post-inflammatory pigmentation from breakouts
Treatment brightens the complexion, leaving the skin clearer, more even and naturally radiant. Most patients notice improvements within weeks, with continued refinement over a course of sessions
Our patients return to us year after year for natural, balanced results. Every review reflects our commitment to precision, safety and a personalised approach to aesthetic care.
With all of our Picosure treatments we always combine both Picosure handpieces. One handpiece works on pigmentation reduction whilst the Picosure Focus handpiece works on improving skin tone and texture, reducing wrinkles and even superficial acne scars.
Many clinics avoid using the Picosure Focus handpiece as there is a cost associated with this. At Dr Joney De Souza Clinic we never compromise on the quality of the treatments we deliver or the products we use, and therefore we combine both of these exceptional treatments during one session. There is very little or no downtime.
The Picosure Laser is the perfect way to correct hyperpigmentation and to improve overall skin tone, quality and texture. Best results can be achieved following a course of Picosure laser treatment. Using gentle Picosure laser stimulation, just four treatments a year can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, pores and pigmentation.
PicoSure delivers energy to the skin in trillionths of a second. Instead of relying on overwhelming heat, it uses a pressure-wave effect to fragment unwanted pigment and stimulate new collagen and elastin.
This makes it highly effective for treating delicate facial areas that require accuracy and reduced thermal impact.

Expert physician-led treatment with precise energy selection for each area of the face.
Minimal downtime compared with traditional resurfacing lasers.
Suitable for a wide range of skin types thanks to its low heat profile.

Natural, elegant outcomes that focus on clarity, refinement and healthy radiance.
PicoSure Focus is highly effective for targeting pigmentation such as sun spots, age spots, melasma, freckles, and uneven skin tone. It can also help improve overall skin clarity, brightness and texture.
The PicoSure Focus lens delivers picosecond pulses of energy that shatter pigment into tiny particles without damaging surrounding tissue. This process stimulates natural skin renewal and collagen production for clearer, smoother-looking skin.
Most patients benefit from 2–4 sessions, spaced 2–4 weeks apart, depending on the amount and depth of pigmentation being treated. Some types of pigmentation, such as melasma, may require more gradual treatment plans.
Downtime is minimal. You may experience mild redness for a few hours, and some pigmentation may temporarily darken before naturally flaking or fading over several days. Makeup can usually be worn the next day.
Most patients describe the sensation as a series of quick snaps or warmth on the skin. The treatment is generally well tolerated, and the device’s advanced technology helps maintain comfort throughout.
Most patients notice brightening and more even tone within 2–3 weeks, with deeper clarity achieved through a course of treatments.
Every PicoSure Focus treatment at Dr Joney De Souza Clinic begins with a thorough consultation. During this appointment, Dr Joney will assess your skin, discuss your concerns and review your medical history to determine the most effective approach. He will explain how the PicoSure Focus lens works, what improvements you can expect and how many sessions may be recommended for optimal results.
Once your personalised plan is agreed, the skin is carefully cleansed and protective eyewear is applied. The PicoSure laser is then used to deliver ultra-short picosecond pulses of energy across the treatment area. These pulses target pigmentation, sun damage and uneven tone while stimulating natural collagen regeneration. Most sessions take around 15–30 minutes, and patients usually describe the sensation as a quick, warm “snap” on the skin with minimal discomfort.
After treatment, the skin may appear slightly pink or feel warm for a few hours. Some pigmentation may temporarily darken before gradually fading as the skin renews. Dr Joney will provide a tailored aftercare plan, which may include gentle skincare, moisturiser and strict sun protection to support the healing process.
There is very little downtime with PicoSure Focus. Most patients return to normal activities immediately, and makeup can often be applied the next day. Over the following weeks, the skin becomes clearer, brighter and more even in tone as collagen production increases. A review appointment may be recommended to assess your progress and plan any follow-up treatments.
