How much does Picosure Tattoo Removal Cost?

The cost of a Picosure tattoo removal treatment varies per size.  Our office charge $250.00 for tattoo removal the size of a business card and then there up.  We offer a free consultation to determine the price per treatment as well as an estimate of how many treatments will be needed. I would consult a board certified Dermatologist in your area who uses the Picosure system and have a consultation.

PicoSure laser usually involves several treatments spread out by four to six weeks to effectively reduce the pigment of tattoos. Depending on the color(s), size, age of tattoo and other factors, the result can vary.In our NYC practice, only physicians do the laser treatments and we often inject local anesthetic to make the laser treatment comfortable. The size of area being treated can be limited based on the amount of surface area if a topical numbing cream will be used and pricing varies depending on the size. Our patients are quoted a fee during the consultation, and they are provided this in writing, and the consultation fee is applied to the procedure if performed within a finite period after the consultation.

PicoSure Laser allows us to treat your with less follow-up visits in comparison to other lasers. PicoSure uses photo acoustic energy as opposded to thermal energy to shatter the tattoo particles into smaller fragments with less treatments! The cost of tattoo removal is truly dependent upon the patient's tattoo size.

Thank you for your question. There are many factors that will determine the price of laser tattoo removal. These factors are the size, color, placement and the number of sessions needed. However, the average cost to remove a large tattoo is approximately $500-$1000 per session. In my office I use the Picosure laser it is 95%+ effective in removing tattoos and works best on dark colors such as black, blue, purple and green and it can take up to 6-10 sessions. Please remember the further the tattoo is from the heart the more time it will take to remove. I recommend having a consultation with an expert to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!

The cost is depends on the size of the tattoo as it relates to the pulses that would need to be generated to cover the tattoo.  We measure the square inches of the tattoo.  We do charge for numbing as we place topical on the tattoo (depending on the surface area, if too large, there is a risk of lidocaine issues) and allow the patient to rest in a room for 1 hour prior to treatment.  If the tattoo is very small, we don't recommend numbing as it is a very quick treatment.  Pico pulsed lasers are triple to quadruple the cost of older QS laser technology and because of this, do carry a higher price tag to the treatment.   The benefit, is that we have found when comparing QS and pico pulsed lasers, the pico pulsed does clear in fewer treatments (but still require multiple treatments depending on the ink density, location, skin color etc).  The best is to schedule a consult with your doctor so that you can gain a better idea.
