Have you grown to regret that tattoo you got on a whim when you were younger? With PicoSure’s advanced laser technology, your tattoo and tattoo regret no longer have to be permanent. PicoSure laser tattoo removal is fast and safe, with some tattoos being completely removed in as few as three sessions.
How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?
The PicoSure laser is a major technological advancement over older Q-switched nanosecond lasers. The unique picosecond technology allows for better tattoo clearance in fewer treatments due to the laser’s ultra-short pulse duration. Laser tattoo removal treatments use pulses of powerful laser light which break up ink into smaller pieces that can be absorbed and eliminated through the body’s natural processes. The PicoSure uses multiple laser wavelengths to treat the full spectrum of tattoo inks, even stubborn blue and green inks, as well as tattoos that have previously been treated. Laser tattoo reduction with the PicoSure causes fewer side effects than outdated tattoo removal options and doesn’t harm the surrounding skin.
What to Expect During Laser Tattoo Removal
It takes about about 6-12 appointments to remove the average tattoo completely, although this varies with size and color. Some patients compare tattoo removal to the feeling of getting a tattoo, but for a much shorter duration. A cooling anesthetic may be applied if needed to alleviate any patient discomfort. PicoSure laser tattoo removal treatments have few side effects, which typically include a sunburn-like sensation and some temporary whitening of the skin. While patient experience and results may vary, most are able to return to their normal routines immediately following treatment with no downtime.
