Which Laser is the Best for a Black Tattoo Removal?

The best laser for tattoo
removal is the PicoSure Laser. It was
proven superior in clinical trials on both black and colored tattoos. It goes beyond photothermal action and
utilizes a pressure wave technology that more effectively breaks up and removes
tattoo ink particles. The ability to
remove tattoos completely depends upon the type of ink used, depth and location
of placement, as well as the patient’s response to treatment.  We see great response to the PicoSure Laser in my practice and we use it exclusively for tattoo removal.

Luckily for you, black ink is one of the easiest pigments to remove using lasers. Any pigment laser can be used for tattoo removal, and I prefer the Q-Switch Alexandrite laser. I recommend finding a physician who is experienced and knowledgable in tattoo removal, and one who can offer you effective options for making it comfortable (numbing cream, numbing injections, etc). Over a series of sessions (usually around 5), your ink will slowly fade, leaving you tattoo-free skin. Ask your physician to see some before and after photos, and ask how long he or she has been using the laser for tattoo removal. If something sounds too good to be true or they can't offer any evidence of previous success, I would suggest inquiring further with another physician. Best of luck!
