The tattoo

A full sleeve black tattoo on the upper arm, forearm.

The forearm drains adequately but sits further from the major lymph nodes of the torso.

Timeline

2 sessions over 1 year.

Sessions were spaced 2 weeks apart.

The laser

LaserAway treated this case with the Picoway, a picosecond platform.

For black ink, it operates at 1064 nm with a pulse duration of 240 - 450 ps.

Mike from GO describes PicoWay as a monster on black ink, and it is his personal choice for black ink removal.
