Pico Laser in Dubai - Advanced Pigmentation, Tattoo Removal & Skin Rejuvenation

An advanced laser treatment that clears pigmentation, smooths scars, and rejuvenates skin with ultra-precise, high-speed pulses.
Powered by Oligoscan™
Performed by our team of DHA-licensed dermatologists and aesthetic specialists, Pico Laser is an innovative skin treatment that uses ultra-short picosecond pulses of energy to break down pigment and stimulate skin renewal without damaging surrounding tissue.

At Shookra, Pico Laser is more than just a pigmentation or tattoo removal tool - it is a versatile technology that addresses multiple concerns, including acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, sun damage, and dullness. By delivering energy in trillionths of a second, the laser shatters unwanted pigment particles into microscopic fragments, allowing the body to naturally clear them away. Simultaneously, it stimulates collagen and elastin production for long-term skin rejuvenation.

What makes Pico Laser unique is its precision and safety. Unlike older nanosecond lasers, picosecond technology works faster, requires fewer sessions, and is suitable for a wider range of skin types, including darker tones.

Whether you want to erase sunspots, fade stubborn pigmentation, remove tattoos, or refresh overall skin texture, Pico Laser at Shookra offers a clinically advanced, non-invasive solution with minimal downtime.

Did a Hydrafacial at Shookra yesterday with the beauty therapist Boutaina and I’m honestly so impressed. My skin felt super clean, hydrated, and just... fresh. The clinic is gorgeous, the staff were lovely, and everything felt really professional. You can tell they know what they’re doing.



Definitely one of the best facials I’ve had in Dubai — perfect if you're looking for deep cleansing, glow, or just a proper skin reset. Will 100% be back.

Absolutely loved my experience at Aesthetic and Longevity Clinic. The ambience is luxe and calming, the staff warm and welcoming. I went in for the Salmon DNA treatment with Dr. Bushra, who was incredibly gentle and thorough — the procedure was smooth, painless, and so well explained. Can’t wait to see the results!

Frequently Asked Questions

No items found.
What is Pico Laser?

Pico Laser is a cutting-edge treatment that uses ultra-short picosecond pulses of laser energy to break down pigmentation and tattoo ink while stimulating collagen for skin rejuvenation.

What concerns can Pico Laser treat?

It is highly effective for pigmentation (sunspots, freckles, melasma), acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, tattoo removal, and overall skin brightening.

How is Pico Laser different from traditional lasers?

Unlike older lasers, Pico technology delivers energy in picoseconds (trillionths of a second), which allows more precise pigment targeting, less heat damage, faster recovery, and fewer sessions.

Is Pico Laser safe for all skin types?

Yes. Pico Laser is considered safer for darker skin tones compared to older Q-switched lasers because of its precision and reduced risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Does Pico Laser hurt?

You may feel a tingling or snapping sensation during treatment. A topical numbing cream is often applied to maximise comfort.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions depends on the concern:

-Pigmentation: usually 3–6 sessions
-Acne scars: 4–6 sessions
-Tattoo removal: 6–10 sessions or more depending on ink colour and depth

Is there downtime after Pico Laser?

Downtime is minimal. Some redness, swelling, or mild darkening of pigmentation may occur but usually subsides within 24–48 hours

When will I see results?

Many patients notice brighter, clearer skin after 1–2 sessions. For tattoos and deep pigmentation, results develop gradually over multiple treatments.

Can Pico Laser completely remove tattoos?

In many cases, yes. However, the number of sessions required depends on tattoo size, ink depth, and colours used. Some tattoos may fade significantly rather than disappear completely.

Who should avoid Pico Laser?

It is not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those with active infections, open wounds, or severe skin conditions in the treatment area. A consultation ensures safety and suitability.
