Principle of Tattoo Removal Procedure

Pico laser emits short pulses in picoseconds (trillionths of a second) to deliver high-intensity energy to pigments. This energy breaks down tattoo pigments into tiny particles, which are then removed through the skin's natural healing process. The short pulses focus exclusively on pigments, minimizing impact on surrounding skin tissue.
