The Technology Behind Our Tattoo Removal
Silver Lake clients turn to Parfaire Medical Aesthetics for tattoo removal that uses the latest picosecond laser innovation. This technology delivers ultra-short pulses of energy measured in trillionths of a second to create a mechanical PressureWave. This effect shatters ink pigments into tiny pieces, roughly 10 to 100 nanometers, which are then cleared by the body’s immune system.
Older Nd:YAG lasers operate on nanosecond pulses that generate much larger ink fragments between 1,000 and 10,000 nanometers and depend heavily on heat, which increases the risk of irritation and scarring. The picosecond laser eliminates these concerns with 4.5 to 5.5 times more photoacoustic impact, allowing faster clearance and fewer treatment sessions. It works across all pigment colors and skin tones. Silver Lake patients also see the added advantage of skin rejuvenation, as the technology improves sun spots, melasma, and acne scars for a brighter, more even complexion.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions will I need for complete tattoo removal?
The number of treatments depends on the tattoo’s size, color composition, ink depth, and the skin’s response. Typically, four to eight sessions are needed, while some clients experience noticeable results after only one to three treatments. A custom session plan will be discussed during your consultation.
Is tattoo removal painful?
Silver Lake clients often say the laser feels like a small rubber band snapping lightly against the skin. Our specialists use numbing creams and cooling devices to make the experience as comfortable as possible. Most clients find that the discomfort is very mild and far less than tattoo application.
What are the side effects?
Clients may experience temporary redness, swelling, or small blisters, which generally subside quickly. Severe complications are rare when treatments are performed by experienced clinicians. The laser technology reduces the likelihood of scarring or changes in pigmentation.
Can all tattoos be removed?
Most tattoos can be significantly faded or completely removed. Results depend on ink type, depth, and age. Professional tattoos typically require more sessions than amateur ones. Treatments can be safely applied to any body area.
How soon can i see results?
Ink begins to break down immediately during treatment, and fading continues over several weeks as the body clears the pigment naturally. Full results are typically achieved after multiple sessions.
Is it safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, this laser is safe and effective for all skin tones, including darker complexions. Adjustable settings help prevent pigment changes while maintaining effective ink removal.
What is the cost of tattoo removal?
Pricing depends on the size of the tattoo and the number of sessions required. Small tattoos generally start at $150 per session, with packages and financing options available for convenience.
Can i get a new tattoo after removal?
After your skin has fully healed, it is safe to get a new tattoo. Timing depends on individual skin response and the number of previous sessions.
