PICOHI 300: Complete Buyer's Guide

PICOHI 300 is a dual-wavelength picosecond Nd:YAG platform combining 1064 nm output with frequency-doubled 532 nm output. This gives the platform broader pigment and tattoo-removal flexibility than a single-wavelength system while remaining more limited than platforms offering additional wavelength channels.

The 1064 nm channel is published with up to 500 mJ pulse energy and 1.67 GW peak power, while the 532 nm channel is published with up to 250 mJ and 0.91 GW peak power.

PICOHI 300 uses genuinely short picosecond pulses, with published durations of approximately 300 ps at 1064 nm and 275 ps at 532 nm.

The short pulse architecture is designed to deliver high peak power over an ultrashort interval. For buyers, the important distinction is that the published pulse duration varies by wavelength rather than being a single 300 ps specification across the entire system.

The published spot-size range is approximately 1.5–13 mm, depending on the applicator. VMLA reaches up to approximately 13 mm, while ZMLA provides an adjustable range of approximately 4–12 mm.

The DOE configuration is listed with a 10 mm 7×7 array. For buyers interested in fractional workflows, the important consideration is not simply whether fractional optics exist, but which applicators are included in the quotation, what spot sizes they provide, and what training and service support accompanies them.

The strongest documented buyer fit for PICOHI 300 is tattoo removal and benign pigmentation, supported by its dual 1064/532 nm architecture and broad spot-size options.
