What is PicoSure laser tattoo removal treatment?
PicoSure is a cutting-edge laser treatment that safely and effectively removes all types of tattoos. It is a picosecond laser, which means that it uses targeted laser light energy in ultra-short pulses to shatter tattoo ink pigment into smaller particles.
Because PicoSure laser tattoo removal delivers light pulses at one trillionth of a second, it can treat even the most complex tattoo designs, including larger tattoos. It also means that we can treat hard to remove tattoo colours such as blues and greens faster than other laser devices.
This laser tattoo removal treatment is popular with our clients as it offers faster treatment sessions, effective tattoo removal and less chance of scarring compared to devices that use heat energy to break down tattoo ink.
Is PicoSure laser tattoo removal worth it?
There are a number of reasons why so many of our clients choose us for laser tattoo removal using PicoSure, including:
- PicoSure laser treatment uses two wavelengths to target and destroy all ink colours on the spectrum.
- It is suitable for most skin types (best on skin types 1-4)
- Each of your laser treatment sessions are fast. For small tattoos we only need a few seconds per session and for larger tattoos we need around ten minutes.
- We use it to treat all types of tattoos including eyebrow tattoos
- Provides impressive results that are permanent

How does the tattoo removal process work?
The first step in your tattoo removal journey will involve an in-depth consultation at our Bristol studio. This is where our tattoo removal experts will assess your tattoo, skin type and talk to you about PicoSure laser treatments.
Our laser technicians will develop a bespoke tattoo removal treatment plan. This will be based on your tattoo type and whether you want to fade a tattoo or completely remove your unwanted tattoo.
During your PicoSure treatment, we will pass the laser device over the tattoo. This will send ultra-short pulses of light energy directly into the tattoo ink. This precise method ensures that we only target the ink without damaging the healthy surrounding tissue.
In the first few sessions, we will target the ink pigment deeper in the skin. In your final few sessions, we will decrease the depth of the laser, but increase the energy to treat the ink that sits on the surface of the skin.
The laser will shatter the ink into smaller particles. This allows your body to process them naturally through the lymphatic system.
How many laser treatments do I need to remove a tattoo fully?
Laser tattoo removal is not a one-size-fits-all treatment. Every tattoo is different and we treat every client on a case-by-case basis. This ensures we help you see the best results.
The number of sessions you will need to remove unwanted tattoos will depend on several factors, including:
- The size and location of your tattoo
- The colours in your tattoo design
- The depth of the tattoo ink
- Your skin condition and overall health (so your body can process the ink)
At our Bristol clinic, you meet with one of our laser practitioners to discuss how many treatments you will need to completely remove your tattoo.
On average, you will need:
- 6-10 laser sessions to fully remove a tattoo
- 2-6 treatments to fade a tattoo for cover up
Common questions about laser tattoo removal Bristol
Does laser tattoo removal hurt?
The short answer is yes, laser tattoo removal can hurt. Sometimes more than getting the tattoo in the first place. The good news is that each tattoo removal session is faster than a session with your tattoo artist.
We also use a cooling device that blows very cold air onto your skin during treatment. This not only protects the skin, but also makes the whole process more comfortable.
Why do you not use a numbing cream?
We do not use a numbing cream during laser tattoo removal, because the cream can change the texture of your skin.
This can make it more challenging to remove a tattoo and lead to you needing more tattoo removal sessions.
Is there a risk of scarring?
At Zapp Laser Studio in Bristol, you will be in the hands of trained laser experts who understand how to perform tattoo removal safely. The use of the PicoSure device also means that the risk of scarring is extremely low.
It is important that you also follow our aftercare advice after every treatment session. This will ensure that your skin heals and that your body can process the tattoo ink properly.
How soon will I see results?
The fading of your unwanted tattoo is a gradual process. You will see your tattoo starting to fade in the first few weeks after your first session. Your results will continue to improve as you progress through your course of treatments.
