PicoSure uses the latest technology in tattoo removal to remove ink colors and brown spots by delivering ultra-short picosecond pulses of energy into the skin. These pulses create a photomechanical effect, or PressureWave™, that targets ink and brown spots while avoiding unmarked tissue. The PressureWave breaks down the ink and brown spots into tiny, dust-like particles, which are easily eliminated by the body. This results in clearer skin with fewer treatments without injuring the surrounding skin.
