Frequently asked questions.
Below is more information you need to know about this treatment.
Typically, multiple treatment sessions are needed. Results vary depending on size and color of the tattoo and how old it is.
Not all tattoos are equal. Some tattoos are easier to remove than others. For instance: Older tattoos are easier to remove since they are typically already faded. Tattoos that are less than a year old are much more challenging to eliminate. Size matters because the size of the tattoo may impact the number of treatments needed to eliminate it completely. Color makes a difference because not all lasers can remove every tattoo color at once. Different dyes respond differently to various wavelengths. Black tattoos are the easiest to fade because the laser can target the black pigment easier than it would red or blue shades. Green ink is notoriously difficult to remove. Skin color is also a big factor. People with fair skin and dark tattoos tend to have an easier time fading their ink than others since the laser can specifically target the tattoo pigment more easily.
Treatment with the PicoWay laser has low to no downtime. Most people can return to their activities of daily living shortly after treatment. You may need a bandage to keep the treatment area dry for a few days following tattoo removal.
