Laser tattoo removal technology uses specific wavelengths of laser light to selectively break up the tattoo color pigments into small enough particles that are then metabolized by the body and eliminated from the body. This principle is called “selective photothermal destruction”. Different colors of pigments require different wavelengths of laser beams, so professional tattoo removal lasers usually integrate a variety of lasers to deal with various colors of tattoos.

There are two main types of lasers used for tattoo removal:

  1. AQSW (Actively Q-Switched)-Bigger
  2. PQSW (Passively Q-Switched)- Portable
Feature AQSW (Actively Q-Switched) PQSW (Passively Q-Switched)
Pulse production Uses Pockels Cell Uses Saturable Absorber
Pulse type Single, powerful pulse Train of pulses
Power and effectiveness Higher power, more effective Lower power, less effective
Size and portability Larger, non-portable Smaller, potentially portable

Discover the Best Tattoo Removal Lasers 

So you want to achieve fast and painless tattoo removal?  Or do you need to remove acne scars, age spots, birthmarks, etc.?

Mico Aes offers the most effective professional laser skin treatment options for medspas, clinics, and beauty salons, including powerful FDA-cleared Nd: YAG and Pico Laser Machines.

Our professional tattoo removal laser machines do much more than remove tattoos.  They remove all sorts of unwanted spots and hyperpigmentation, including melasma, freckles, birthmarks, rosacea, post-acne erythema, and more.  They also achieve skin anti-aging by removing wrinkles and fine lines.

Gain Medium

The gain medium is the aspect of a laser device that will determine the wavelength of laser light emitted. Gain mediums may be solid, liquid, or gas. Lasers used in tattoo removal are solid-state gain mediums. The most common wavelength used for tattoo removal is 1064 nm which is produced by the Nd: YAG crystal (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet). Other common gain mediums for tattoo removal are Alexandrite (755 nm) and Ruby (694 nm). To create 532 nm laser energy, 1064 nm laser emission is passed through a KTP crystal (Potassium Titanyl Phosphate), which serves as a second harmonic generator, cutting the wavelength in half.

Q-Switched Nd: YAG Lasers

What is a Q-Switched Nd: YAG Lasers

Q-switched laser systems are to produce high-energy, extremely short nanosecond or picosecond pulses by modulating the cavity loss and Q-factor of the resonator cavity. These brief but powerful pulses can selectively disrupt and remove pigment particles in the skin while minimizing thermal damage to surrounding tissues.

Commonly used for tattoo removal are Nd: YAG solid-state lasers, which can emit two wavelengths: 1064nm and 532nm. The 1064nm ruby wavelength is most effective for removing deeper colors like blue, black, and green tattoo inks;

While 532nm is better for removing lighter colors like orange, red, and yellow. By integrating these two complementary wavelengths, the Wave Laser skin system can achieve efficient removal of multi-colored tattoos.

In addition to tattoos, Q-switched lasers are also widely used to treat various pigmentary disorders such as age spots, sun spots, and melasma. The principle is to utilize the selective absorption of 1064nm or 532nm wavelengths by melanin to photo-thermally disrupt pigment particles and remove blemishes. This non-ablative process does not strip away the skin surface, thus increasing safety and minimizing the risk of scarring.

Over multiple treatment sessions, the body’s natural processes gradually flush out these shattered nano-pigments, causing the tattoo to fade away. The laser tattoo removal process is a non-surgical and non-invasive treatment and can be performed with virtually no downtime.

What is a picosecond Lasers

Nanosecond AQSW lasers have pulse durations in the range of 6-40 nanoseconds (ns).

Picosecond lasers have much shorter pulse durations, typically in the range of 500-800 picoseconds (ps), which is 6-10 times faster than nanosecond pulses at the same energy level (around 0.9-1.0 Joules).

Both picosecond and nanosecond AQSW lasers use the same principle of Q-switching to produce high-energy, short pulses. The difference lies in the timescales involved.

Advantages of Picosecond Lasers:

  1. Shorter Pulse Duration: The ultrashort picosecond pulses allow for more confined photoacoustic and photomechanical effects, potentially reducing collateral thermal damage to surrounding tissues.
  2. Higher Peak Power: At the same energy level, the shorter pulse duration translates to higher peak power, which can enhance optical breakdown and ablation efficiency.
  3. Fewer Treatment Sessions: The increased efficacy of picosecond pulses is claimed to reduce the number of treatment sessions required for tattoo removal compared to nanosecond lasers.
  4. Picosecond laser systems are generally more expensive than nanosecond AQSW lasers.

Both picosecond and nanosecond AQSW lasers are actively Q-switched systems, utilizing similar components like a Pockels cell and polarizers to achieve Q-switching. However, the picosecond systems are designed to produce pulses in the picosecond range, which allows for higher peak powers and potentially enhanced tissue effects.

While picosecond lasers hold promise for improved efficacy and reduced side effects, particularly in the later stages of tattoo removal, nanosecond AQSW lasers remain a well-established and widely used technology in dermatology and aesthetic treatments due to their proven clinical performance and relatively lower cost.

Applications of the laser tattoo removal machines?

Painless Tattoo Removal

Utilizing MicoAes’ tattoo removal treatment series, unwanted dark, and colored tattoos can be safely and effectively eliminated. By combining laser wavelengths targeted at different ink colors, high-intensity light beams can break down the ink particles within the tattoo, revealing clear, unblemished skin while minimizing the risk of scarring or pigmentary changes.

Successful multi-color tattoo removal requires high-powered lasers capable of providing sufficient energy across various color absorption spectra. The high-powered Q-switched Nd: YAG 1064nm laser is ideal for treating deeper ink colors (blue, black, and green), while the 532nm wavelength is suitable for addressing lighter ink colors (orange, red, and yellow). This treatment method mechanically breaks down the ink particles without causing thermal damage, leading to tattoo fading while minimizing the risk of scarring or pigmentary alteration. Therefore, Q-switched lasers are considered the best option for tattoo removal.

Benign Pigmentary Disorders

Hormonal changes and the life cycle can affect the distribution of melanin (skin color) in our skin, leading to the appearance of age spots, sun spots, or melasma (a deep, patchy facial discoloration condition).

MicoAes’ laser and light therapies target melanin in the deeper skin layers to eliminate spots and pigmentary deposits, clearing pigmentary accumulations from all layers to reveal an even, flawless complexion.

This treatment is designed with patient comfort in mind and is safe and effective for all skin types, including darker skin tones.

Q-switched Nd: YAG laser systems, utilizing nanosecond laser pulses (the gold standard for treating pigmentary disorders), are the optimal choice for addressing naturally occurring excessive pigmentation, including:

  • Pigmentary incontinence
  • Solar lentigines (age spots)

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does laser tattoo removal work?

Laser tattoo removal uses high-intensity light pulses to break down tattoo ink particles in the skin. The laser sends energy into the dermis layer, shattering the ink into tiny fragments. The body’s immune system then removes these fragments over time, causing the tattoo to fade.

  • What type of laser is most effective?

PicoSure lasers are considered highly effective for tattoo removal. They use ultra-short pulses (picoseconds) to break up ink particles without damaging surrounding tissue. PicoSure lasers can treat multicolored pigments and are effective on stubborn black ink.

  • How many treatments are typically needed?

The number of treatments varies depending on factors like tattoo size, colors, and complexity. Amateur tattoos may take 2-4 sessions, while professional tattoos often require 6-12 sessions. Larger, more complex tattoos with multiple colors generally need more treatments.

  • Is laser tattoo removal painful?

Most patients report that laser tattoo removal is uncomfortable but tolerable. The sensation is often compared to a rubber band snapping against the skin. Many clinics offer numbing options like cooling devices, ice packs, or topical creams to manage discomfort during treatment.

  • How long does each treatment session take?

Treatment sessions typically last between 10-30 minutes, depending on the tattoo’s size and complexity. Larger tattoos require more time per session.

  • Are there any side effects?

Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and tenderness in the treated area, which usually subside within a few days. Proper aftercare is important to minimize risks and promote healing.

  • Is laser tattoo removal safe for all skin types?

Modern laser systems like PicoSure are generally safe for all skin tones. However, it’s important to consult with a qualified professional to determine the best approach for your specific skin type and tattoo.
