The Technology Behind Our Tattoo Removal

Arcadia clients seeking advanced tattoo removal benefit from Parfaire Medical Aesthetics’ state-of-the-art picosecond laser technology. This system delivers ultra-short bursts of energy measured in trillionths of a second, creating a mechanical PressureWave that fractures tattoo pigments into particles between 10 and 100 nanometers. These fragments are small enough to be cleared by the body’s immune response, leading to noticeable fading and smoother skin over time.

Older Nd:YAG lasers function with slower nanosecond pulses that rely on heat, resulting in larger ink fragments of about 1,000 to 10,000 nanometers. This increases the need for more sessions and heightens discomfort or risk of scarring. The picosecond laser, however, provides faster and safer ink clearance due to its 4.5 to 5.5 times higher photoacoustic force. It works effectively across all tattoo colors and skin tones. Additionally, Arcadia residents benefit from skin rejuvenation as this technology reduces signs of sun exposure, dark patches, melasma, and acne scars for a more radiant complexion.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions will I need for complete tattoo removal?

The total number of sessions required varies with tattoo characteristics, including pigment type, size, color, depth, and individual skin response. On average, four to eight sessions are necessary, but some see noticeable fading after one to three treatments. We will provide a customized session plan during your consultation.

Is tattoo removal painful?

Clients from Arcadia usually say the sensation feels like a gentle snap from a rubber band. Our practitioners take steps to ensure comfort by using numbing creams and cooling systems that minimize irritation. The process is typically well-tolerated, with pain levels significantly less than those of tattoo application.

What are the side effects?

Common reactions include temporary redness, mild swelling, or small blisters, which generally fade quickly. Severe complications are rare when performed by qualified professionals. Our laser system further minimises risks such as scarring or pigmentation changes.

Can all tattoos be removed?

Most tattoos can be substantially faded or removed. The outcome depends on factors such as ink depth, type, and age. Professional tattoos may require more treatments than amateur tattoos, and all body areas can be treated safely.

How soon can i see results?

You may see ink breakdown immediately, with gradual fading continuing over weeks as your body naturally clears the pigment. Maximum results are usually seen after completing multiple sessions.

Is it safe for darker skin tones?

Yes, the picosecond technology is safe for all skin tones, including darker complexions, with settings adjusted to prevent pigment issues.

What is the cost of tattoo removal?

Cost varies depending on tattoo size and the number of required sessions. Small tattoos generally start at $150 per treatment, and packages and financing options are available.

Can i get a new tattoo after removal?

After full healing, it is safe to get a new tattoo. Timing may vary based on skin response and the number of sessions previously completed.
