Our Technology
Lucid Q-PTP & Picosecond Laser Machines for Laser Tattoo Removal
Combining the Bison Medical Lucid Q-PTP with Picosecond Laser Technology provides a highly versatile approach to modern tattoo removal.
Our Lucid Q-PTP Q-switched Nd:Yag Laser, offers established nanosecond technology for targeting a wide range of tattoo pigments and our Picosecond Lasers deliver significantly shorter pulses, producing highly localised photoacoustic disruption of tattoo pigment.
Why we use both!
No single laser is optimal for every tattoo. Having access to both Lucid Q-PTP Lasers and Picosecond technology allows treatments to be tailored according to the tattoo’s colour, pigment composition, depth and density.
This combination provides us with greater flexibility to select the most appropriate wavelength, pulse duration and treatment parameters as your tattoo progressively fades.
The result is a comprehensive, adaptable approach to tattoo removal, combining the proven versatility of Q-switched Nd:Yag technology with the highly targeted pigment disruption offered by Picosecond technology.
debunking laser tattoo removal myths
Have you ever wondered what’s true and what’s false when it comes to laser tattoo removal? With old myths still around, it can be hard to distinguish which ones are true vx. misleading. Educating yourself on these myths can be the easiest way to ease your mind when considering laser tattoo removal.
Myth # 1: Black ink is impossible to remove.
FALSE: Of all the colours, black ink responds best to laser light and absorbs all wavelengths. Contrary to popular belief, black ink is one of the easiest colours to remove. It also has fewer additives, which can make the removal of some colours difficult.
Myth # 2: Removing tattoos will leave a scar or burn your skin.
FALSE: The chance of scarring from laser tattoo removal is slim to none. Thanks to advanced laser technology, wavelengths of light energy safely penetrate through the top layers of skin and specifically target the ink pigment from your tattoo without harming any surrounding skin tissue. Lasers provide precise treatment and only target the ink from your tattoo. It is essential to seek treatment from a trained professional to ensure the use of proper protocols. Following proper after care instructions is also crucial to ensure scarring does not occur. Many patients experience blistering or scabbing after treatment. These side effects are completely normal reactions to laser tattoo removal and should be expected for some patients. As long as patients allow scabs and blisters to heal naturally, they will achieve great results. Picking or popping blisters and scabs can cause infection and can lead to unwanted scarring – not from the laser tattoo removal itself.
Myth # 3: Tattoo removal creams work just as good as lasers.
FALSE: While the simple concept of spreading cream over a tattoo to remove it sounds convenient, unfortunately, this is not the case. No tattoo removal cream is as effective as lasers – it’s just not possible. Tattoo ink resides deep within the skin’s dermis layer. Unlike lasers, creams cannot and do not penetrate the skin deep enough to reach the ink of a tattoo. Tattoo removal creams use bleach or peel away the top layer of the skin to create a fading effect, but will never altogether remove a tattoo. These creams can cause unwanted scarring and burning.
Myth # 4: All tattoos are easy to remove
FALSE: Tattoos are like snowflakes; they’re all designed differently and have various factors that make it unique, including the person wearing the tattoo. Some tattoos require more sessions due to the complexity of their design and the colours used.
Laser tattoo removal is the best way to fully remove your tattoo or simply fade it so your tattoo artist can re-design.
