It is very common to use both types of lasers. Many practices have both types and some of the pico lasers also have combines pico and Q-switch built in. My recommendation is that you find a practice that has both. Best of luck.
Absolutely. With today's new technologies, it is possible to remove any part, or all, of a tattoo, and to do so faster, easier, and with less discomfort than ever before. Understand that it will take multiple treatments done over time, and depending on what part you may want removed, there may...
