Picosecond Laser Tattoo Removal Machine
Picosecond Laser Tattoo Removal Machine
Picosecond laser is a faster, safer and more effective tattoo removal machine. Approved by the FDA, picosecond lasers have become the first choice for doctors and patients, with rich wavelengths to address ink colors and skin types.
How does Picosecond Laser remove tattoos?
Ultrashort pulses: The machine emits laser pulses in picoseconds (trillionths of a second), much faster than conventional nanosecond lasers. This rapid energy delivery creates a powerful photomechanical effect that breaks tattoo ink into smaller particles.
Targeted wavelengths: The machine uses specific wavelengths of light (e.g., 532nm, 755nm, 1064nm) to target different colors of tattoo ink. For example, the 755nm wavelength is particularly effective for removing stubborn blue and green inks.
Minimal thermal damage: Because the energy is delivered so quickly, heat transfer to the surrounding skin is minimal, reducing the risk of thermal damage and making the treatment safer for all skin types.
Multiple spot sizes: The machine offers adjustable spot sizes (e.g., 2mm to 10mm), allowing practitioners to precisely treat both small and large areas.
Picosecond Laser Tattoo Removal Advantage
Faster Results: Picosecond lasers break down ink particles more effectively than traditional lasers, allowing for faster tattoo removal in fewer sessions.
Effective for All Ink Colors: The 755nm wavelength, in particular, is highly effective for removing hard-to-treat colors, such as blues and greens, which are often resistant to traditional laser treatments.
Safe for All Skin Types: Minimal heat transfer and precise targeting of ink particles make Picosecond lasers safe for use on a variety of skin tones, including darker skin types.
Minimal Side Effects: Because the laser energy is delivered very quickly, there is less risk of thermal damage to the surrounding skin, which reduces side effects such as blistering or scarring.
Versatility: In addition to tattoo removal, Picosecond lasers can be used to treat a variety of skin problems, including pigmentation issues, sun damage, wrinkles, and melasma.
Larger Spot Size: Adjustable spot size (up to 10 mm) allows for deeper penetration and more effective treatment of larger areas.
Shorter treatment times: The efficiency of the picosecond laser means that each treatment is shorter compared to traditional laser treatments.
Frequently Asked Questions about Picosecond Laser Tattoo Removal Machines
1. Does Picosecond Laser Tattoo Removal hurt?
Most patients describe the sensation as a slight snap or tingling sensation, similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. Topical anesthetic creams can be used to reduce discomfort.
2. How many sessions are needed to remove a tattoo?
The number of sessions required depends on factors such as the size, color, and age of the tattoo, as well as the individual’s skin type. On average, most tattoos require 4-8 sessions to be completely removed.
3. How long does each treatment take?
Treatments typically last 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of the tattoo.
4. When will I see results?
Some fading may occur after the first treatment, but noticeable results are usually seen after 2-3 treatments. The body gradually eliminates broken ink particles over time.
5. Are there any side effects?
None, but some people may experience temporary redness, swelling, or minor bruising. These are normal and usually subside within a few days.
6. Can Picosecond Lasers Remove All Tattoo Colors?
Picosecond lasers are effective in removing a wide range of tattoo colors, including stubborn blues and greens. However, some colors, such as white or light-colored inks, may be more difficult to remove.
7. Is Picosecond Laser Tattoo Removal Safe for Dark Skin Tones?
Yes, Picosecond lasers are safe for all skin types, including dark skin tones, because they minimize thermal damage to the surrounding skin.
8. How long is the downtime after Picosecond Laser treatment?
There is virtually no downtime after Picosecond Laser treatment. Patients can usually return to normal activities immediately, but should avoid sun exposure and follow post-operative care instructions.
9. Can Picosecond Lasers be used for other skin treatments?
Yes, Picosecond lasers are versatile and can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including pigmentation issues, sun damage, wrinkles, and melasma.
