With the development of the medical aesthetics industry and continuous innovation in various technologies, picosecond laser technology has stood out among numerous cosmetic techniques and attracted much attention due to its advantages of high precision, high efficiency, and low risk. True picosecond laser devices have also become the preferred solution for many clinics and medical institutions seeking safe and effective tattoo removal and skin improvement.
So why is picosecond laser technology so powerful? This guide will delve into the core principles, indications, key advantages, target audience, and comparison with nanosecond lasers, providing you with comprehensive and detailed information to help you with your business.
What is a tattoo?
A tattoo is a permanent mark, pattern, or design created by injecting ink into the dermis. It's achieved by pricking the skin with a needle (either manually or using an electric tattoo machine) to inject pigment deep into the skin. Tattoos can be considered a synonym for individuality and art, with different designs carrying different meanings.
How does a picosecond laser remove tattoos?
Picosecond lasers are a non-surgical, non-invasive laser skin treatment.
The ultrashort pulse duration of a picosecond laser is only one trillionth of a second, delivering powerful energy to the ink pigment and breaking it down into tiny particles-a process known as the photoacoustic effect. These tiny pigment particles can be absorbed by the body's immune system, particularly macrophages, and eliminated as waste. Compared to traditional nanosecond lasers, picosecond lasers are more effective, providing better overall results while reducing skin damage.
Furthermore, picosecond lasers can target and remove various colors of ink tattoos, including difficult-to-remove colors such as blue and green, by adjusting different wavelengths.
What symptoms can picosecond laser treatment treat?
Picosecond lasers can be used to treat various skin problems, making them a top choice for those seeking a perfect skin rejuvenation solution.
- Tattoo Removal:
Picosecond lasers are highly effective at breaking down ink particles, especially blue and green ink particles that are difficult for other lasers to remove.
- Improving Pigmentation:
Removes age spots, sun spots, melasma, freckles, including Hori's nevus and pigmentation caused by minocycline.
- Skin Regeneration:
Picosecond lasers stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, helping to restore skin elasticity, shrink pores, and improve uneven skin tone and dullness, leaving your skin radiant.
- Acne Scar Removal:
Picosecond lasers are highly effective in removing acne scars.

Picosecond vs. Nanosecond
Many so-called picosecond laser devices on the market don't actually use picosecond technology, but rather nanosecond laser technology, which has similar functions. This leads many manufacturers touting professional picosecond laser devices while actually selling nanosecond laser tattoo removal machines.
Perhaps you're wondering how to distinguish between these two technologies? Are there significant differences in their effectiveness for tattoo removal and skin treatment? I will provide a table to answer your questions at a glance.
| Feature | Picosecond laser | Nanosecond laser |
| Pulse duration |
Picosecond (10⁻¹² s) |
Nanosecond (10⁻⁹ s) |
| Mechanism |
Photomechanical effect: Energy generates shock waves that break up particles. |
Photothermal effect: Energy generates heat, causing tissue to vaporize. |
| Efficacy | The pigment is broken down into tiny powders. |
It is effective, but not as effective as picosecond lasers in breaking down pigment. |
| Pain |
The pain is relieved because the surrounding tissues are heated less. |
Pain occurs due to increased temperature in the surrounding tissues. |
| Treatment results |
Suitable for a variety of tattoo colors, including blue and green. |
It works very well for dark tattoos. |
Who can expand their business by purchasing the Newangie 350ps True Pico?
Medical spas and beauty centers: These businesses dominate the picosecond laser market and can expand their services to include other minimally invasive treatments such as tattoo removal and skin enhancement.
- Dermatology clinics:
Introducing picosecond laser devices helps clinics expand their services to address a wider range of skin concerns, such as benign pigmented lesions, acne scars, and wrinkles.
- Plastic surgery clinics:
Clinics specializing in cosmetic surgery can integrate picosecond lasers to offer advanced skin treatments and complement surgical services.
- Distributors:
The maturity and efficiency of picosecond laser technology have made it well-known in the beauty market. Wholesale picosecond devices can quickly expand one's business and make it increasingly popular in the target market.
Who is not suitable for using picosecond laser devices?
The following patients are contraindicated for picosecond laser devices:
• Pregnant women or breastfeeding mothers;
• Those with photosensitivity in the near-infrared wavelength range;
• Those currently taking medications known to increase sensitivity to sunlight;
• Those suffering from photoinduced epilepsy;
• Those currently taking or who have previously taken oral isotretinoin.
What should you pay attention to before and after picosecond laser tattoo removal treatment?
Before Treatment:
Avoid Sun Exposure
For at least four weeks prior to treatment, avoid direct sunlight and sunbathing. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation can cause pigmentation, reduce treatment effectiveness, and increase the risk of complications.
Avoid Irritating Skincare Products
Discontinue use of skincare products containing retinol or various acids at least one week before treatment. Avoid makeup to prevent clogged pores and interference with treatment results.
Sun Protection
When going out, always apply a strong sunscreen. Wearing a hat, mask, and sun-protective clothing are also recommended for physical sun protection.
Cleanse the Tattoo Area
Take a thorough shower before treatment to remove all makeup, creams, and oils from the tattoo area to ensure a smooth treatment process.
Post-treatment:
Focus on moisturizing
Skin is more sensitive and prone to dryness after treatment, so proper moisturizing is crucial. Apply a gentle moisturizing cream to prevent the treated area from becoming too dry and itchy.
Sun protection
Sun protection is still essential after picosecond laser treatment. The sun protection procedure is the same as before the treatment. When going out, be sure to apply broad-spectrum high-SPF sunscreen. Wearing a hat, mask, and sun-protective clothing for physical sun protection will be even better.
Keep clean and dry
The treated skin is more fragile and susceptible to infection, so keep the treated area clean and dry. For daily cleansing, gently clean the treated area with mild soapy water, avoiding washing with excessively hot water.
Do not scratch the treated area
Scabs may form on the treated area; allow them to fall off naturally. Do not pick or scratch, as this can leave scars and cause infection.
Avoid excessive heat
Avoid saunas or excessively hot baths/showers for two days after treatment, as high temperatures can worsen sensitivity and swelling.
Prevent infection
Follow the above recommendations to avoid infection. If you notice any signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, or pus, please contact your doctor immediately for help.
In closing:
Whether you're getting a tattoo or removing one, it's crucial to ensure the safety and reliability of the method. Choose trustworthy equipment, beauty clinics, and qualified doctors. This will not only protect your safety and health but also maximize the results.
