What is tattoo removal?

Tattoo removal at Serenity Medical Spa uses cutting-edge, FDA-approved PicoSure® laser technology to eliminate unwanted tattoos. This technology utilizes a picosecond (one trillion pulses per second) laser specifically designed for tattoo removal. It’s a highly effective way to eliminate unwanted pigment, as well as sun damage and other signs of skin aging. 

Which inks can PicoSure® tattoo removal eliminate?

PicoSure tattoo removal at Serenity Medical Spa can eliminate nearly any type of ink, including the following difficult-to-remove colors:

• Black
• Blue
• Green
• Yellow
• Orange
• Other bright colors

PicoSure technology can also eliminate multicolored, faded, and previously treated tattoos. 

How does tattoo removal work?

PicoSure laser tattoo removal uses ultra-rapid pulses to minimize heat and create a photomechanical effect that rapidly removes ink. Its powerful energy bursts and PressureWave technology break down ink into tiny particles, allowing your body’s immune system to eliminate the pigment naturally over time.

PicoSure technology also boosts collagen production and diminishes acne scars, wrinkles, fine lines, and pigmented lesions. It creates younger-looking, healthier skin without any downtime.

What can I expect during PicoSure tattoo removal?

During tattoo removal at Serenity Medical Spa, you can relax while Dr. Gertzman holds a small laser device close to your skin to emit energy into pigmented tissues. You might feel the sensation of a rubber hand snapping against your skin. Dr. Gertzman can numb the area to ensure your treatment feels comfortable. 

The length of tattoo removal treatment depends on the size of the treated areas. It might last just 10 minutes, but multiple treatments are often necessary to optimize the results.

What happens after laser tattoo removal sessions?

After laser tattoo removal at Serenity Medical Spa, it’s important to follow your post-treatment instructions. Avoid unprotected sun exposure as the treated tissues heal. Dr. Gertzman determines when to schedule your next tattoo removal treatment session. 

You might need 4-10 sessions spaced weeks or months apart, depending on the type of tattoo you’d like eliminated. At the end of your series of treatments, the tattoo will be completely gone.
