Safety and effectiveness of black tattoo clearance in a pig model after a single treatment with a novel 758 nm 500 picosecond laser

Background Optimal selective photothermolysis of a pigment particle requires pulse durations equal to or less than the particle's thermal relaxation time (t½). Since tattoo particles in skin range in diameter from 40 to 300 nm, picosecond pulses would approximate t½ more closely and, therefore,...
