What is the difference between PicoWay and PicoSure laser?

PicoWay has 3 wavelengths that operate at full picosecond power and speed. PicoSure has a natural 755nm wavelength and uses laser pump handpieces to convert to 532nm and 1064nm. This conversion drops the energy and compromises the effectiveness of the wavelength.
