Update Your Tattoo with Lumenis Piqo4 Tattoo Removal

Whether you have been thinking of updating the canvas on your tattoo or completely removing it, we are here to help! The Piqo4 by Lumenis is the most advanced state of the art laser tattoo removal treatment.

In this video, watch Dr. Mejia perform an initial tattoo removal session on a patient who is actually going to get another one of the same due to the first one not being done correctly.

This powerful laser tattoo removal was unveiled at the American Academy of Dermatology’s annual meeting in February, 2018 and is the only laser in the United States that has four wavelengths and the ability to deliver both nanosecond and picosecond pulses.

Pico Fractional, is a new PiQo4™ hand-piece, which introduces a fractional laser beam based on photoacoustics. As opposed to traditional laser treatments, which use thermal energy, PicoFractional creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones within the skin, and utilizes the shattering effect of sound waves to create tiny holes deep within the dermis, known as Laser Induced Optical Breakdown (LIOB).

This pigment removal works on four wavelengths shattering the most popular ink colors.

Since each pigment color absorbs a specific wavelength, PiQo4 offers 4 wavelengths in order to treat the broadest range of pigment/tattoo colors, on the widest range of skin types. Its four wavelengths – 1064nm, 532nm, 650nm and 585nm – target 9 of the most frequently used tattoo colors ranging from light orange to dark black. With PiQo4 you can erase the rainbow.

Check out this video by Lumenis comparing a competitor product. Notice the speed using the Piqo4 at 53 seconds vs. 3 minute, 51 seconds.

IPL Treatment Demonstration


In this video, Ashley Hess our Physician Assistant, does a demonstration of the IPL treatment. IPL stands for Intense Pulse Light and it targets the pigment producing cells and it targets the pigment from chronic sun exposure. It also targets the redness and blood vessels that cause sun damage. This procedure can be done on different parts of the body like the neck, face, hands and chest.

The Universal IPL machine is made by Lumenis :

IPL treatment improves the appearance of photoaged skin, removes age spots (sun-induced freckles), most benign brown pigments, and redness caused by broken capillaries through a process called photorejuvenation for face and body. The process is ideal for patients with active lifestyles because the procedure requires no downtime and has a low risk of side effects.

The demonstration was on Renee’s right hand. She already had the IPL treatment done on her left hand(seen on the right of the picture) a week before. In the video, she said the it made her hand look 10 years younger.

IPL was also done on the left side of her chest two weeks before and on this day, she had it done on the other side. This was so you could see the before and after. Notice that the left side (seen as the right side of the video and picture) doesn’t have as much brown pigmentation and it is just after one treatment.
