Picosecond laser tattoo removal in Beaulieu sur Mer

Laser tattoo removal

Picosecond laser tattoo removal represents a genuine revolution in the field of tattoo removal.

This innovative technology uses ultra-short pulses of light energy to break up tattoo pigments into microscopic particles, which are easily eliminated by the lymphatic system. This technique offers many advantages over traditional tattoo removal methods, such as dermabrasion or surgery.

Increased effectiveness

The picosecond laser is able to treat a wide range of tattoo colours, including multicoloured tattoos, blues and greens, which were previously difficult to treat with traditional lasers. This is because picosecond pulses are shorter and more intense, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin and target the tattoo pigments more precisely.

Faster treatment

Thanks to its increased power, the picosecond laser can treat tattoos more quickly than nanosecond lasers. This means that the number of sessions required to achieve optimum results is generally reduced. On average, between 2 and 8 sessions are needed with the picosecond laser, compared with 10 to 15 sessions with traditional lasers.

Less risk of scarring

The ultra-short energy of the picosecond laser minimises collateral damage to the skin, reducing the risk of scarring. This is particularly important for people with tattoos on sensitive areas of the body, such as the face or hands.

Increased comfort

Picosecond laser treatment is generally less painful than traditional lasers. Most patients experience a tingling or warming sensation during treatment, which is generally bearable without anaesthetic. However, a topical anaesthetic can be used for more sensitive patients.

The picosecond laser is a safe, FDA-approved treatment for all skin types. There is no risk of burns or infection, and side effects are generally minimal and temporary.

Dr Filippini uses the DEKA TORO laser, one of the most advanced picosecond lasers on the market. This latest-generation laser offers several unique advantages that make it an ideal choice for tattoo removal:

  • Three wavelengths: The TORO laser combines 3 wavelengths (785 nm, 532 nm and 1064 nm) for optimum effectiveness on all types of pigment. This versatility makes it possible to treat black and coloured tattoos, including multicoloured tattoos and blues and greens that are difficult to treat with traditional lasers.
  • Picosecond and nanosecond emissions: The TORO laser offers a choice between picosecond and nanosecond pulses, allowing treatment to be tailored to each tattoo. Picosecond pulses are ideal for deep, tough tattoos, while nanosecond pulses can be used for more superficial tattoos.
  • Versatility: The TORO laser can also be used for other aesthetic treatments, such as the treatment of wrinkles, scars and pigment lesions.
