Before (session 0) and after (session 1) at Cosmetique Totale.
The tattoo
A medium black tattoo on the skin, more than 10 years old when treatment began.
Older ink benefits from years of natural immune-driven fading: macrophages have been working on the particles throughout the tattoo's life, reducing effective density before treatment begins.
The laser
Cosmetique Totale treated this case with the Picosecond, a picosecond platform.
For black ink, it operates at 1064 nm with a pulse duration of 300–750 ps.
