Pico lasers have many useful applications, foremost of which being for laser tattoo removal. Pico laser tattoo removal simply refers to any treatment that uses laser technology with a pulse width measured in picoseconds.  The LightSense™ laser is a type of picosecond laser, one with an incredibly short pulse width.  A picosecond is one trillionth […]

Why is a picosecond laser advantageous for laser tattoo removal? We look at the science behind picosecond lasers  In the world of laser tattoo removal, broadly speaking, lasers are divided into the nanosecond and picosecond categories. These terms refer to measurements of time, specifically, the duration or pulse width of the laser. That is, how […]

The best lasers for tattoo removal plotted on a timeline It’s a long way to LightSense™ After existing for a full sixty years lasers have only just been properly harnessed for their potential to safely and effectively remove tattoos.  It’s taken a long time to fine-tune the science that underpins laser tattoo removal so that […]

One of the most common questions about technology for laser tattoo removal relates to its strength.  Which is understandable, when someone chooses to remove a tattoo with a laser they have likely decided that they are ready for a completely fresh start as soon as possible. So they seek out the technology that they think […]

Laser tattoo removal in picoseconds There are different types of machines for laser tattoo removal, all of which sit on a timeline pointing towards the current fastest lasers in terms of pulse duration measured in picoseconds.  The LightSense™ laser is at the forefront of this technology.  In order to explain why pulse duration matters so […]
