Save yourself the time and the money, don’t go anywhere else! Before going here I’d had 5 – 6 treatments with the q-switch laser, which wasn’t bad. I’d tried one of the chain brand laser clinics — which was awful! This laser, and these guys in particular; far surpass any other treatment. Their care and professionalism is first class to start with. Pico vs Q-switch, there’s no question, Pico is superior. The treatment itself is less painful, initial healing is faster — 24 hours instead of 3 – 4 days, and the fading with only two weeks has truly amazed me. I cannot rate them highly enough. Less pain, faster results, saving money in the long run. It’s a no brainier.
