Have you been regretting a tattoo, but putting off removal? You may be concerned about the cost, the pain involved, the time commitment, or any combination of these factors. Fortunately, Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville has an answer to your reasons for hesitation. With the PicoSure laser, tattoo removal is simpler and speedier. This revolutionary aesthetic technology approaches tattoo removal in an entirely new way, saving you appointments and discomfort. Read on to learn more about your new best tattoo-removing friend!
The PicoSure Laser Difference
Most tattoo removal lasers are nanosecond or Q-switched lasers. While these operate by emitting short pulses of energy, they use a photothermal action to break up ink particles. This produces heat, which can damage the skin, cause pain, and cause blistering post-treatment.
The PicoSure is a picosecond laser. The bursts of energy it emits are much briefer – only trillionths of a second! – and it uses a photomechanic action. This destroys ink particles in an unprecedented way. After being broken into tiny particles, the body’s immune system will naturally process them and remove them from the skin’s surface. Your tattoo will be minimized in a spectacularly thorough fashion.
Advantages of PicoSure Treatment
In addition to the basics of treatment, PicoSure carries other benefits over standard tattoo removal lasers.

- Gets you out of the office and back to daily, tattoo-free life – in as little time as possible
Tattoo removal can seem like a big decision, but it’s something that should be available to every patient. Don’t allow a tattoo that you’ve come to regret control your activities, decisions, or confidence. Get in touch with our Jacksonville Beach clinic today to discuss your laser tattoo removal.
