Before (session 0) and after (session 2) at Removery.


The tattoo

A medium black tattoo on the forearm.

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

Timeline

2 sessions over 2 years.

Sessions were spaced 3-4 months apart.

Complete clearance in 2 sessions is at the faster end of what this type of tattoo typically requires.

The laser

Removery treated this case with the PicoSure, a picosecond platform.

For black ink, it operates at 1064 nm with a pulse duration of 550 - 750 ps.

PicoSure's black ink adapter (1064nm) is considered largely ineffective by most experienced providers; the native 755nm is its strength.
