The Technology Behind Our Tattoo Removal
Rosemead residents can enjoy exceptional tattoo removal outcomes with the advanced picosecond laser at Parfaire Medical Aesthetics. This technology produces ultra-fast pulses lasting only trillionths of a second, generating a powerful PressureWave that shatters tattoo pigments into particles around 10 to 100 nanometers. These tiny pieces are easily removed by the body’s immune system, promoting clearer and more even skin.
Older Nd:YAG lasers emit slower nanosecond pulses, creating much larger pigment fragments that rely heavily on heat to break down, often resulting in more discomfort, more treatments, and potential for burns. In contrast, the picosecond laser achieves faster and safer results with a 4.5 to 5.5 times stronger photoacoustic effect. It works effectively on a wide range of colors and skin tones. Rosemead clients also benefit from its additional skin rejuvenation properties, which address pigmentation concerns, melasma, sun spots, and acne scarring for a healthier-looking complexion.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions will I need for complete tattoo removal?
Session numbers vary depending on tattoo size, pigment type, color intensity, depth, and the way your skin responds to treatment. Typically, four to eight appointments are required, although some clients notice significant fading in just one to three sessions. A tailored recommendation is provided at your consultation.
Is tattoo removal painful?
Rosemead clients frequently describe the tattoo removal experience as similar to a quick rubber band pop. We prioritize comfort by applying numbing creams and using cooling technology to keep the skin calm. Pain levels are generally mild and noticeably less than what’s felt during tattooing.
What are the side effects?
Most clients experience mild side effects such as temporary redness, slight swelling, or minor blistering. These reactions generally resolve quickly without intervention. Serious complications are extremely uncommon when treatments are performed by experienced professionals. Our technology is designed to reduce the likelihood of scarring or changes in skin pigmentation.
Can all tattoos be removed?
Nearly all tattoos can be faded significantly or removed completely. Results depend on the type of ink, its depth, and the age of the tattoo. Professional tattoos often require additional sessions compared to amateur ones. The treatment is safe for tattoos on any part of the body.
How soon can i see results?
The laser begins breaking down tattoo pigments immediately, and fading continues progressively over the following weeks as the body naturally clears ink particles. Full results usually appear after multiple sessions.
Is it safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, the laser is safe and effective for all skin types, including darker skin tones. Adjustable settings help prevent pigmentation changes while maintaining efficacy.
What is the cost of tattoo removal?
Pricing is based on the size of the tattoo and the number of sessions needed. Small tattoos typically start at $150 per session. Packages and financing options are available to accommodate individual needs.
Can i get a new tattoo after removal?
Once your skin has fully healed, it is safe to receive a new tattoo. Timing may vary depending on the number of sessions completed and how your skin responds to the treatment.
