Pico Laser in London — two clinics, every skin tone

Pico Laser is the most versatile pigment laser available, and the safest choice for medium and deeper skin tones. At Blueness we run it at two London clinics — King's Cross and Swiss Cottage — with a consultation and patch test before every course.

What Pico Laser treats

Hyperpigmentation, melasma, sun spots and dark marks left after acne — on the face and the body.

Uneven tone and dullness, with a gentle collagen boost that improves texture over a course.

Tattoo removal, including colours older lasers struggle with.

At King's Cross we also use Pico for pitted acne scars and surgical scarring.

Why Pico is safer on deeper skin tones

Picosecond pulses break pigment apart mechanically instead of heating the skin. Less heat means less inflammation — the main cause of burns, light patches and rebound pigmentation with older lasers.

That is why Pico is our first-line laser for Fitzpatrick IV–VI, and why we still patch test before treating a full area.

Choosing your London clinic

King's Cross (N1) offers the full Pico range, including pitted acne scars and surgical scarring, plus Erbium resurfacing.

Swiss Cottage (NW6) offers Pico for pigmentation, melasma, sun spots and tattoo removal.

What to expect

Your first visit is a consultation: skin typing, a look at what you have tried before, and an honest plan with the number of sessions you are likely to need.

Sessions take 15–30 minutes. Most people return to normal plans the same day, with daily SPF 50 to protect the result.
