Fast Laser Tattoo Removal with PicoSure®

How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?

PicoSure represents a major technological advancement over obsolete Q-switched Nd: YAG lasers. PicoSure is equipped with a picosecond laser that can remove just about any tattoo. The full spectrum of colored tattoo inks, including notoriously stubborn blue and green inks, and very dark lines can be removed. PicoSure’s powerful laser light pulses shatter underlying tattoo inks into microscopic particles that the immune system can naturally eliminate from the body. The PicoSure laser is safe and will not permanently damage your skin. Even if you have tried other tattoo removal treatments before without experiencing success, PicoSure can deliver the results you’ve been waiting for.

What to Expect During PicoSure Laser Tattoo Removal

Four to six appointments are typically needed to completely remove the average tattoo, although the exact number will depend on the tattoo’s size, color, and age. Scheduling a consultation is the best way to learn how many appointments will be needed. Some people say that the procedure feels similar to getting a tattoo, but for a much shorter duration. A cooling anesthetic can also be provided to alleviate discomfort. PicoSure laser tattoo removal has few side effects, including some temporary skin whitening and a sunburn-like sensation. Most people are able to resume their normal activities immediately following treatment without experiencing any downtime.
