Are you looking for the best way to laser a tattoo? A pico laser is the fastest, safest and most effective way to remove a tattoo.
If you have an unwanted tattoo you obviously want to get rid of it as soon as possible. There are several laser techniques that you could use to remove a tattoo. One of the most fast, safe and effective ways to remove a tattoo is with a pico laser. In this article we will tell you how a pico laser works and what the benefits are.
What do you find out?
How does a Pico laser work
Like other lasers, the pico laser works through pulses of light. The difference with other lasers is that the pico laser produces light pulses of only one picosecond. Traditional lasers operate at a rate of one nanosecond. In this regard, the pico laser is 1,000 times faster than traditional lasers. Because the pulse is so powerful, the ink particles in the skin are instantly pulverized into very small particles. Because the particles are so small, they are disposed of faster in the body. In this way, fewer treatments are needed than with a traditional laser. In addition, with a pico laser you can work very precisely so you can treat exactly the right spot.
Tattoo removal with Pico laser
With a pico laser, you can safely and effectively remove a tattoo. A pico laser treatment usually requires about 4 - 9 treatments. Of course, this depends on various factors and the size of your tattoo. Prior to treatment there is always a consultation with the skin therapist. He discusses the options and approximately how many treatments will be needed. During treatment, the picolaser is focused on the right spot and gives several pulses of light. In general, removing a tattoo with a pico laser is not considered very painful. You can compare it a bit to rubber bands shooting against the skin. At New Skin Laser Clinic we use a Zimmer Cool device, which numbs the skin with ice cold air. This makes the treatment 75% less sensitive.
After treatment
After treatment, the treated skin may experience redness, swelling, itching, burning and blistering. Usually these side effects completely subside after three days. It is important to protect your tattoo from the sun between treatments. In doing so, be sure to lubricate your skin well with sunscreen. During the treatment, the heat generated must be allowed to leave the house. Therefore, use as little creams or makeup as possible on the day of treatment. Only sunscreen is allowed.
