How many laser sessions to remove my tattoo?

Tattoo removal with the traditional Q-SWITCHED Laser is very effective and perceived as a long-term treatment. Some patients notice a clear improvement three months following the first laser intervention. The estimated number of sessions varies regarding the density of pigment as well as the tattoo technique used, the number of years the pigment was introduced…

Generally four to six sessions is enough to remove an “amateur tattoo”. Indeed, the latter one presents a lower ink density in comparison with a professional tattoo.

As for a professional tattoo, patience is the word as twelve, fifteen or twenty sessions can be necessary to completely remove a tattoo.

The Picosecond PicoSure Laser allows the patient to enjoy faster treatments and results, ensured by a reduced number of sessions and a shortened period between two sessions. Combining those two particularities will lead to a faster tattoo removal, around 12 - 18 months with the PicoSure Laser, instead of the impressive 24 – 48 months for the Q-Switched traditional Laser.

Depending on the patient’s expectations in terms of treatments, either one or the other of these techniques would be recommended.
