A Message from Dr. James E. Murphy
“This is an opportunity to erase tattoo pigment more efficiently with far less recovery time. After evaluating the treatment and clinicals, there’s no question that PicoSure® advanced technology provides us with the most advanced tattoo removal treatment on the market. We have been treating tattoos for several years now with the RevLite SI Laser, which has been the best Q-switch laser on the market, until now." Dr. James E. Murphy
PicoSure® Rethinking Tattoo Removal Possibilities
PicoSure ®Pressure Wave™ is an unparalleled breakthrough in tattoo removal technology, gently delivering ultrashort pulses of energy to tattoo ink in trillionths of a second. This shatters the ink into tiny particles that are easily eliminated by the body with no injury to the surrounding skin. Based on physicians' studies, PicoSure® has proven efficacy on difficult ink colors and previously treated tattoos. This means your tattooed skin can experience better clearance of pigments with fewer laser treatments and less recovery time.

I have been going to Jeri at Murphy Plastic Surgery for a few years now. Jeri is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to all of the treatments offered, in particular, laser procedures. I started coming here to have a tattoo removed. Soon after, I continued on with other laser treatments. The picosure facial is one of my favorites. I find Jeri to be very cautious yet aggressive enough to always leave with great results. If you are considering a treatment such as tattoo removal or facial laser treatments, I highly recommend Jeri. Although I have not seen anyone else at this practice, I feel comfortable enough here that I have scheduled a corrective surgery for my son with Dr. Murphy. Highly recommend!

View on GoogleBenefits of Laser Tattoo Removal with PicoSure
- More effective than older laser treatments, meaning fewer appointments to remove tattooed pigments.
- The laser encourages collagen and elastin to grow, which can result in smoother skin after healing.
- The laser stimulates your lymphatic system to flush away ink molecules.
- Older treatments had trouble with bright ink colors. PicoSure successfully breaks up fluorescent ink and black pigments.
- The laser is lightning fast, so ink removal appointments can be over in about 10 minutes.
- Less skin is affected by the laser, as it is precisely targeted. Patients say the removal process hurts less than getting the tattoo.
Is Laser Removal Pain Intense?
Not at all. The tattoo removal procedure is made virtually pain-free thanks to our Zimmer chiller tool, which blasts chilled air onto the tattoo during treatment. A cooling, numbing gel can also be applied to the area for your comfort. Some patients say the laser feels like the quick snap of a rubber band.
