ABOUT PicoSure® Tattoo removal
Emerald Medispa utilizes the most advanced laser technology to safely fade and remove unwanted tattoos. The PicoSure® device delivers ultra-short light pulses shattering ink particles into tiny fragments which are then eliminated naturally from the body. With repeated treatments, tattoos can fade immensely and may even disappear completely.
Attracted to the pigmentation in tattoos, the Picosure®’s laser energy causes a change in pressure that breaks the ink apart into tiny particles without injuring the surrounding skin. With repeated treatments pigmented cells are broken apart and absorbed by the lymphatic system where they are eliminated naturally.
