Pigment and ink require wavelength precision

Unwanted tattoos, traumatic ink, and stubborn brown spots need lasers that match chromophore depth and color. Fort McMurray patients benefit from physician assessment of ink type, skin tone, and lesion diagnosis before any pigment laser.

TORO is a versatile Q-switched and fractional laser platform configurable for tattoo particle fragmentation, epidermal pigment, and selected brightening protocols. Each pass shatters ink or melanin into particles cleared by the immune system over weeks.

Tattoo removal is a process, not a single event. Complete clearance is not guaranteed; amateur, layered, and color-rich tattoos need more sessions. Sun protection and scab care are mandatory between visits.

Q-switched photoacoustic fragmentation

Ultra-short pulses create photoacoustic shock that breaks tattoo ink or pigment granules without excessive thermal damage when parameters are correct. Wavelength choice targets color: black responds broadly; greens and blues need specific filters. Physician tests spot and adjusts fluence per response.

How sessions work

  • Multiple wavelengths for color spectrum
  • Fractional modes for skin quality adjuncts
  • Series spaced eight to twelve weeks for tattoo clearance
  • Physician rules out malignancy masquerading as pigment
