Hello, I have a large, colourful, somewhat dense, partial half sleeve tattoo and I'm looking into removal with Picosure. I know that laser tattoo removal isn't a guarantee but... if Picosure is better for stubborn colours and can get rid of inks that were no longer responding to regular nano-second lasers, then does this mean that Picosure is able to "fully remove" all tattoos? Except those being white ink or on people with darker skin tones. Thanks!!

Answer: Removal of a Tattoo With PicoSure We have had great success with the PicoSure laser. Full removal of a tattoo depends on many factors like colors, patient's ethnicity and location. If the tattoo has multiple colors then a combination of laser may have to be used. Different ink colors respond to different wavelengths. I recommend to go for in person consultation to get a treatment plan.

Answer: Full Tattoo Removal with Picosure
The PicoSure™ Laser is able to completely remove colored and black tattoos which was proven in the clinical trials used for FDA submission. Clearance varies depending on the type of tattoo ink used, depth of placement, patient response, location, size and other factors. At Hall Plastic Surgery and Rejuvenation Center in Austin, Texas we are treating a number of colorful sleeve tattoos. We collaborate closely with our patients to develop a strategy for removal which may include prioritizing specific areas of the sleeve for initial treatment. Once these portions are cleared the remainder may then be targeted.
