Do you regret getting a tattoo? Well, you are certainly not alone! In fact, 40% people of people who get a tattoo done, regret the decision after some time. That amounts to two people in every five! While the number is astounding, it’s not at all surprising since there are a number of reasons why people may start regretting having a tattoo etched on their skin and also wish to have it removed later. In this regard, however, newer technologies can help you out.
What Is PicoSure Laser Technology and How Does It Work?
Before the launch of this far more effective and efficient technology, the gold standard for tattoo removal was considered to be Q-switched Lasers that used thermal energy to break apart ink particles. PicoSure, on the other hand, uses ultra short pulses and a great pressure that is responsible for shattering the ink particles into tiny dust like fragments that are then easily removed and eliminated by the body’s natural process.
Why Should You Choose PicoSure Laser Treatment?
A need has been felt in recent years for a far more improved and fast tattoo removal method that is effective in removing even the hardest of ink colors and in fewer sessions, as compared to previous technologies. Over the years, technologies and methods of tattoo removal have evolved from potentially harmful and pain inducing treatments to methods that provide virtually no side effects and guarantee far better results, in fewer sessions!
Yes, this is true. You won’t be required to visit the practice that often if you opt for the PicoSure tattoo removal method, as it doesn’t need as many sessions to completely remove or cover up a tattoo as compared to traditional Q-switched lasers. The PicoSure laser also works on hard to remove colors like green, red, orange, yellow and pink.
Advantages of PicoSure Laser Tattoo Removal by Cynosure
The first and foremost advantage that people, who have undergone this treatment report the entire process from start to finish, is far less painful as compared to previous technologies. We also use a Zimmer Cryo 6 cooler that chills the skin to alleviate the heat with cold air. Furthermore, your skin and its texture will not be adversely affected by this treatment. Traditional Q Switched lasers often leave a “ghost” image of the tattoo after it’s removed because the laser cannot determine the pigment of the skin versus the pigment of the skin. The PicoSure is far much less likely to do this.
In addition to this, other main advantages of the tattoo removal treatment that have beaten the rest are;
- The removal of tattoos is done more quickly, i.e. in half the sessions or even less
- The technology can effectively treat recalcitrant tattoos, i.e. ones that are especially resistant to some lasers and aren’t completely removed even after numerous sessions
- Provides efficient removal of light green and blue pigments
- Far less costly as compared to other laser tattoo removal technologies, largely due to ability to remove tattoos completely in fewer sessions
