How Does PiQo4 Work?
PiQo4 uses acoustic sound waves to quite literally shatter pigment. The best way to understand this is to think about pigment like large rocks.
The PiQo4 starts by breaking down the large rocks into pebbles and then those pebbles into sand. This is all achieved through the short and long pulses delivered through the PiQo4 treatment.
Unlike some other skin treatments, PiQo4 is able to deliver the treatment with targeted precision which makes it incredibly effective.

What is a PiQo4 Treatment like?
The treatment with PiQo4 starts with a consultation with WAVE’s expert team. We want to make sure this is the right treatment for the results that you are looking to achieve.
If PiQo4 is the right treatment for you, we’ll schedule your appointment for a treatment.
In order to ensure you get the best results from your procedure, you should prepare your skin in advance. This means use medical grade skincare that contains hydroquinone, retinol or Retin-A.
We typically recommend that patients stop this medical grade skincare treatment 48-72 hours before their treatment.
After that, the actual treatment is fairly straight forward. You’ll be treated by one of WAVE’s expert staff who will ensure you are comfortable and will help you achieve optimal results.
