Ink Regret ? – with <b>Laser Tattoo Removal</b> you get a do-over <b>...</b>

Tattoos are permanent markings on the skin and in recent years have gained intense popularity in our society. There was even an exhibition at the Museum of Croydon in the UK dedicated to tattoos, who has them and why.

Do you want a Do-Over?
Lots of people want do-overs when it comes to tattoos. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 45,224 tattoo removal procedures were performed in 2013.

At Caddell's Laser Clinic our clients ratio is 55% come in for lightening their tattoos so they can cover them with a new tattoo and 45% come in for a total removal.  Whether removing completely or just lightening a tattoo – lasers give you a do-over!

People get their tattoos removed because they don't reflect who they are any longer, while others have their old tattoo lightened to have new ink placed over the old, because they want something different or they are running out of room.

Laser Tattoo Removal is by far the most popular, widely used and safest treatment for removing or lightening a tattoo. There are several different types of lasers that have different wavelengths which makes them suitable for different color inks. Lasers used to remove tattoos continue to improve in their ability to remove a more colors of ink and the reduction of scarring.

During laser tattoo removal, the laser is used to selectively target and destroy the tattoo with no damage to the surrounding tissue, which greatly decreases scarring. Because of the different wavelengths, the technician can choose the precise combination of lasers for the depth and color of a particular tattoo. The most difficult colors to remove are yellow and green.

What does Laser Tattoo Removal feel like?
During the laser tattoo removal you'll feel intense emissions of light penetrate the tattoo and you'll hear the laser noise and fans. The laser is attracted to the tattoo ink and it shatters the ink into tiny, microscopic crystals, which are then absorbed through the lymphatic system of your body.

Laser tattoo removal treatments are quick, so you can schedule your appointments even with a busy schedule. Caddell's Laser Clinic offers a numbing cream if desired, to reduce the level of pain from the laser, and many clients express relief after their first session: "Wow…it wasn't that bad at all!"

PicoSure advanced, effective <b>laser tattoo removal</b> - Washington <b>...</b>

Posted: 07 Mar 2014 09:16 AM PST

PicoSure laser technology is the newest most advanced laser treatment for Tattoo Removal. The PicoSure laser provides a major breakthrough in tattoo removal by helping to clear notoriously stubborn colors quicker and more effectively than other laser technologies. Most green and blue tattoos can be completely removed in as few as one to three PicoSure laser treatments, whereas the same tattoos would typically require many more treatments using other laser technologies.

PicoSure Advantage

  • Fewer treatments
  • Better removal of even the most stubborn ink colors (such as blues, greens and black)
  • Effective on tattoos that show resistance to other laser treatments

Why PicoSure laser technology is a more effective laser tattoo removal treatment.

Picosecond vs. Nanosecond Technology

Traditional nanosecond lasers predominately rely on photothermal action, delivering heat to the pigment and surrounding tissue. PicoSure laser takes advantage of advanced laser technology to shatter the target tattoo ink into tiny particles that are easily eliminated by the body.

PicoSure's ultra-short pulse duration goes beyond photothermal action, creating an intense photomechanical impact. This results in greater destruction of ink particles and, thus, better clearance of the tattoo with fewer treatments. The PicoSure laser does this without injury to the surrounding skin. Even dark, stubborn blue and green inks, as well as previously treated and resistant tattoos can be removed.

Traditional laser vs PicoSure Laser

Ultra-Short Pulse Duration Is the Difference (1064nm Nd:YAG)

  • Picosecond pulse width is 100x shorter than nanosecond technology (providing for a more targeted and powerful treatment).
  • Only ultra-short pulse durations trigger photomechanical effects (change in the actual tattoo particles).
  • With the picosecond short pulse width, half the energy is required to remove tattoos effectively (compared to Q-Switched nanosecond lasers that are commonly used for tattoo removal).
