Pico Laser Treatments at Totally RAD Beauty: Christchurch’s Premier Skin Clinic (What to Know Before You Book)

If you’ve been Googling “Pico Laser Christchurch” or asking around about laser hair removal and skin brightening treatments, you’re not alone. At Totally RAD Beauty, we’ve had a lot of questions lately about our Pico laser services - from pricing and packages to how it feels (yes, we’ll talk about the pain factor too 👀).

Whether you’re looking to fade dark spots, tighten skin, lighten underarms, or just want smoother, hair-free results, this post breaks down what you need to know (plus we’re shaing our answers to real client questions!)

First, What Is Pico Laser?

Pico laser is a next-generation laser treatment that uses ultra-short pulses (picoseconds) to target pigmentation, acne scars, uneven tone, and even unwanted hair without damaging the surrounding skin.

It’s fast, effective, and safe for most skin tones. One of the biggest perks? Minimal downtime and long-term results with consistent sessions.

Common Questions We Get About Pico Laser at Totally RAD Beauty

1. Do you offer package deals for Pico Laser + Hair Removal (like underarms or Brazilian)?

Yes! One of our most popular combo treatments is: Underarm Lightening + Hair Removal (30 - 45 mins session)

This includes:

• Diode Laser Hair Removal for long-term smoothness

• Picolaser Skin Brightening to reduce dark spots

• Cooling + Hydrating Post-Care to soothe the skin

It’s perfect if you're looking to remove hair and lighten pigmentation in a single session.

2. Can I do Pico Laser and Underarm Whitening in one appointment?

Absolutely! In fact, Pico laser is one of the most effective methods for underarm whitening. We often combine it with gentle exfoliation and aftercare support to safely fade dark pigmentation caused by shaving, friction, or hormonal changes.

3. Is Pico Laser painful? Do you offer numbing?

Great question - and one we get often.

Most clients find Pico Laser treatments very tolerable. The sensation is usually described as quick, light snaps (like a rubber band) and the discomfort is minimal. Because of the ultra-fast pulses, sessions go by quickly and are far less intense than traditional lasers.

We typically don’t apply numbing cream for standard Pico Laser sessions. Why? Numbing can sometimes dull the skin’s natural response, making it harder for our trained estheticians to assess how your skin is reacting in real time, which is key to keeping it safe and effective.

But comfort always comes first. If you’ve had a previous experience where the pain was too much, or you’re concerned about sensitivity in a specific area (like the underarms or face), just let us know. We’ll assess your skin, walk you through your options, and tailor the experience to keep you as comfortable as possible.

You’re in trusted hands; we never rush, and we always prioritize your skin’s health and your peace of mind.
