Looking for tattoo removal in Edmonton? First off, you are not alone! 1-7 people will eventually regret the tattoos they get. Some the next morning and others over the years. Luckily we now have a solution for that!
Tattoo removal works by using laser energy to break up the tattoo ink into smaller particles which are then removed from your body via your immune system. Over multiple treatments more and more of the ink shatters, in the end hopefully leaving your body ink free.
The Q switched laser is one of the first lasers used for tattoo removal and has been around for years, but with its high energy and slow pulse rate your chances of burning are increased, in addition to a extremely painful treatment. Since the pulse rate is slower (the speed in which the laser enters your skin) it does not break up the tattoo ink as quickly. Meaning more sessions and more money.
Picoway is the new generation of tattoo removal! What makes it unique is it’s picosecond laser technology, meaning that the energy is delivered in ultra short pulses that are one trillionth of a second. The pulses are so fast and concentrated that the ink is being shattered into smaller particles making it easier for your body to eliminate. Meaning fewer treatments, which is always excellent news.
So when choosing a clinic for tattoo removal, think about this? Do I want longer more painful treatments, or would you prefer a laser that is less painful and that requires fewer treatments.
