Pico Laser for Tattoo Removal

EXCLUSIVE NEW TREATMENT 1^st clinic in Midlands

Midlands leading laser Medical Cosmetic Clinic is proud to offer:

The Ultimate in laser tattoo removal of all colours

“See my true colours and remove my true colours”

The Solihull Medical Cosmetic Clinic is proud to introduce the new and exclusive Pico laser to the Midlands. Unlike cheaper ND:Yag machines which only remove certain colours of tattoo at lower energy requiring sometimes up to 20 treatments or more, the Pico laser is considered the gold standard in laser tattoo removal in the world. We are the first clinic in Birmingham to offer this exclusive treatment as a major referral centre for people who have been disappointed with tattoo removal results from salons and tattoo parlours. So far we have already had many patients contact us in the Midlands who would have otherwise had to travel to other parts of the country paying expensive prices for treatment. Now we can bring the technology closer to home.

Medical Evidence For Pico Laser Tattoo Removal:

A study carried out in America using Pico laser and Nano laser for tattoo removal

The researchers found the picosecond laser cleared tattoos faster than the nanosecond technology. Red, yellow and orange pigments seemed to respond best to the 532 nm picosecond laser, with 75% to 100% clearance after an average of two treatments in most cases. Seven tattoos containing black ink responded equally well after one to two treatments to the 755 nm and 1064 nm picosecond lasers. One treatment resulted in 75% clearance of the red pigment in nine tattoos. In two of the people studied, the red pigment was gone after three treatments.

What is Picosecond?

Picosecond is the first of a new generation of aesthetic lasers that don’t rely solely on heat to burn or melt away unwanted tattoo ink or melanin, the pigment that causes dark spots in your skin.

Instead, Picosecond engineers used cutting-edge physics and medical science to help practitioners treat patients in a new way. Instead of building up heat, Picosecond delivers energy so rapidly (in trillionths of a second) that tiny particles that make up pigment and tattoo ink vibrate and shatter, without burning surrounding tissue. Less heat means less tissue damage and discomfort.

Advantages of Picosecond Technology over Traditional Laser Tattoo Removal

Picosecond laser technology can be used to treat multicoloured tattoos on different skin types. Unlike traditional lasers, it delivers super-short pulses of energy measured in picoseconds to the targeted ink. Traditional laser treatments are associated with:

• Limitations on tattoo colours and types that can be treated
•  Discomfort during treatment
•  Ineffectiveness in breaking up ink particles
•  Certain risks associated with the treatment, particularly with darker skin tones

Picosecond tattoo removal has several advantages over traditional laser treatments:

• It produces fast results with high-power, concentrated energy delivered in ultra-fast pulses to shatter ink particles so the body can clear them.
• It provides better results for different skin types in a few treatments.
• As the energy pulses are so fast, patients experience minimal discomfort during treatment.
• Advanced picosecond technology minimises risk, as the energy is delivered optimally to the ink particles in ultra-short pulses, while the least amount of heat goes into the skin.

Tattoo Removal Procedure with the Picosecond Laser Technology

First, a numbing agent is applied if the patient desires it for more comfortable treatment. Then, the Pico laser handpiece is used in the treatment area to deliver high-power laser energy in picosecond pulses precisely to the ink particles. The energy pulses shatter the ink particles into tiny fragments, most of which are later naturally eliminated by the body. The skin is constantly monitored to keep it cool and comfortable from the beginning to the end of the procedure.

This method selectively treats the tattoo without causing damage to the surrounding skin. With less heat generated, the treatment is safer with fewer side effects. Patients may experience temporary skin reddening or discoloration around the treatment site or a temporary lightening of the skin in the area. These symptoms typically resolve and the skin returns to a normal tone.

Tattoos can be removed in a single treatment, although complete removal may require additional treatments. Certain ink colours may require more treatments to remove than others, although treatments will still be fewer with picosecond laser technology, with fewer resulting side effects.
