Laser Tattoo Removal of Body Art & PMU Brows in Springfield, MO

We Use the Latest Technology with the Cutera Enlighten III Laser

How Cutera Enlighten III Pico Laser Works

The Cutera Enlighten III Laser is one of the newest and most advanced light energy platforms on the market today. It is equipped with 3 different wavelengths: 1064nm, 670nm & 532nm to eliminate ANY color of tattoo ink or permanent makeup pigments, safe for all skin types and skin colors, You will generally need HALF the sessions it would take with an old-school, traditional ND:Yag nanosecond Q-Switch Lasers or a pico laser equipped with only one wavelength, limiting removal capabilities of all ink colors & saturation levels.

By using photo-acoustic technology in nanosecond AND picosecond pulse durations, the ink absorbs the light energy, passing harmlessly through the skin, and shattered into tiny particles. Your body absorbs these tiny molecules and flushes them through your lymphatic system with fast recovery time, and minimal pain with our powerful pre-numbing topical anesthetic to keep your treatments fast and comfortable!

HOW MANY Treatments do I Need?

Newer, dark, high-density tattoos may require more sessions.
Not all tattoos will fully clear.
Tattoos located on limbs and extremities will take more sessions based on distance from the heart.

SPF 30 or higher required after 2 weeks of dry healing
Only use Dove Sensitive Skin Bar Soap to lightly clean in the p.m.

Skin sensitizing serums or topicals remain off the treatment area in-between sessions and not within a 2" perimeter for 30 days before treatment

What about PERMANENT MAKEUP?

Permanent Makeup pigments are significantly lightened with just one treatment as long as placement of pigment is not deeper than it should and WILL NOT DAMAGE THE SKIN like Saline Removal does
1 Session is usually enough to remove unwanted color like dense blues, grays or green.
Full removal of both brows or a botched shape will take 2-3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart
