Is it safe to switch from PicoSure to Q-switch due to lack of availability of clinics using Q-switch in my new city?

October 5, 2017
Asked By:Mrs Peanutbutter in Glasgow, GB

I have had 7 sessions of tattoo removal with PicoSure at a clinic in Glasgow, UK. I am about to move to Tenerife, Spain in a few weeks and my research on-line showed that there are no clinics or tattoo studios offering laser treatment with PicoSure and they all use Q-switch. Is it safe to go ahead and continue the removal of my tattoo using Q-switch? Is it safe to assume that at worst of cases the procedure will only be slower? Thank you very much for your time.
