Q & A
What is laser tattoo removal using Picosure?
Picosure laser tattoo removal is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure involving the use of a specialized laser to break down and eliminate unwanted tattoos. The Picosure laser emits ultrashort energy pulses that shatter the tattoo’s pigment particles, which are then eliminated by the immune system.
In contrast to other laser tattoo removal systems, which utilize nanosecond pulses, the Picosure laser emits 100 times shorter picosecond pulses. This means that the energy is delivered more quickly, shattering the ink particles in the tattoo into fragments that are simpler for the immune system to eliminate.

The number of treatments required depends on the tattoo’s size, colour, and location, as well as the patient’s skin type and immune system. On average, optimal results may require four to six treatments.
