Until the launch of PicoSecond, Q-Switched lasers had been considered the gold standard for removing tattoos. Q-switched laser treatments use thermal energy to heat up and break apart the ink particles. Now with PicoSecond, ultra-short pulses (one trillionth of a second in length!)hit the ink particle with a pressure so great,

the ink shatters into tiny dust-like particles. Because the particles are so small, they are more readily absorbed and eliminated by the body. This can mean better clearance of the tattoo and less treatments overall!

Every tattoo is unique and contains different colors and different volumes of ink. It’s important to speak with a PicoSecond doctor to find out how many treatments you may need, and what to expect.
