Efficacy of Medlite C6 and Picosure Wavelengths
These lasers are designed to produce one or more specific wavelengths of light in short bursts. Tattoo ink is removed the specific wavelength of light that passes into the skin, and is absorbed by the ink. The rapid absorption of light energy causes the tattoo ink to break into tiny particles that can then be removed by the body’s natural filtering and immune systems. The tattoo fades gradually over a series of treatments.
The tattoo is targeted by specific wavelengths of light which are absorbed by the ink
The tattoo ink is broken down into smaller particles which can be naturally filtered by the body
These particles are gradually removed by the body and the tattoo begins to fade
On average, professional tattoos require 6-12 treatments for full removal or 2-4 treatments to lighten for effective coverups. All treatments are spaced a minimum 6 weeks apart. The number of treatments depends on a number of variables (for example: body placement, type of ink, colour etc). Black is the easiest to shift but at Sacred Laser we can effectively target the full spectrum. We use the gold standard in medical lasers in 3 wave lengths that allow us to target all colours.
