How do pico laser treatments compare with IPL on cost-effectiveness?

Doctor's Answer

Pico Laser vs IPL

Usage

Pico Laser is emitted at a specific wavelength which makes it more targeted and effective at treating specific skin issues.

On the other hand, IPL involves the use of a broader wavelength during the treatment. This means that IPL will be able to cover a wider range of treatment types

Safety

IPL can be performed by beauty therapists and not necessarily by doctors unlike for Pico Laser, which has to be operated by a medically-certified doctor.

The un-regulated nature of IPL treatments may subject you to possible complications should it be done by an inexperienced beautician.
