Jefferson Surgical Clinic of Roanoke is one of the first in the nation to offer “PicoSure,” the world’s only picosecond aesthetic laser for tattoo removal. According to the manufacturer, the advancement in laser technology safely and effectively erases tattoos with fewer treatments and better results. Even tattoos that have been treated previously but failed to clear can be removed with PicoSure’s patented “PressureWave” technology.
“We are excited to offer the most advanced tattoo removal treatment exclusively in our area,” said Karen Tuttle, administrator of Jefferson Surgical Clinic. “Under our new division – JSC NeoPulse Laser Therapy – we have created a brand that will give us room to grow and expand our range of services to include PicoSure.”
The JSC NeoPulse Laser Therapy (www.NeoPulseLaser.com) division was formed through a partnership with the five vascular surgeons – Drs. James Callis, Jesse Davidson, James Drougas, William H’Doubler, and Thomas Conlee and plastic surgeon – Dr. Steven Harris.
A reported breakthrough in tattoo removal technology, the new PicoSure processs gently delivers ultra-short pulses of energy to the tattoo ink in trillionths of a second without injury to the surrounding skin. This shatters the ink into tiny particles that are easily eliminated by the body. Based on physician studies PicoSure has proven efficacy on difficult ink colors, as well as previously-treated tattoos, for better clearance with fewer laser treatments and improved recovery time.
Recent data estimates that nearly 20 percent of the 45 million Americans with at least one tattoo regret their decision.
