Laser Tattoo Removal Hunt Valley MD



What is PicoSure?

Using picosecond technology, the PicoSure laser offers a breakthrough in laser tattoo removal treatment.  Ultra-short pulse bursts of energy are delivered to the skin in just trillionths of a second.  The picosecond pulse width is 100 times shorter than the nanosecond technology used with traditional tattoo removal systems.  Clinical studies show that PicoSure is able to treat darker, multi-colored, and complex tattoos more efficiently, with more significant removal in much less time.

How does PicoSure remove tattoos?

Traditional nanosecond lasers used for tattoo removal rely predominately on photothermal (heat) action delivered to the pigment of the tattoo and the surrounding tissue.  The ultra-short pulse of energy of PicoSure goes beyond the photothermal action of a traditional laser by creating an intense photomechanical effect that shatters the target ink into tiny particles that are easily eliminated by the body, while leaving the surrounding tissue unheated.
