The tattoo

A small white and black tattoo on the forearm.

The forearm drains adequately but sits further from the major lymph nodes of the torso.

Timeline

3 sessions over years, 5 months.

Sessions were spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

The laser

Medical Arts treated this case with the Picoway, a picosecond platform.

For white and black ink, it operates at 1064 nm with a pulse duration of 240 - 450 ps.

Mike from GO describes PicoWay as a monster on black ink, and it is his personal choice for black ink removal.
