Why Multiple Sessions Are Needed for Tattoo Removal with the PiQo4 Laser – Explained
Why One Session Isn’t Enough for Tattoo Removal
Getting a tattoo might happen in a single sitting—but removing it is a different story. At Eraditatt, we use the PiQo4 laser, one of the most advanced systems in tattoo removal. It's fast, powerful, and effective across all skin tones and ink colors.
But here’s the truth: you’ll need more than one session. That’s not a flaw in the process—it’s just how your body works.
How the PiQo4 Laser Works
The PiQo4 laser uses short bursts of energy in picosecond and nanosecond pulses to shatter tattoo ink into tiny particles. These fragments are so small that your immune system can begin to absorb and flush them out naturally.
It’s a game-changer in tattoo removal—but it still works with your body, not against it.
Your Body Needs Time to Heal and Flush Ink
After each session, your body begins the process of healing and clearing away broken-down ink. That takes time. Your immune system works steadily, but it can't remove all the ink particles at once—especially when the tattoo is dense or deeply layered.
Why wait between sessions?
It prevents overloading your lymphatic system.
It allows inflammation to subside.
It gives you a clearer view of how much fading has occurred.
That’s why sessions are typically spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart.
What to Expect Over Multiple Sessions
No two tattoos are the same. Factors like color, depth, age, and location all affect how many sessions you’ll need. On average, clients need 6 to 10 treatments for full removal. Lighter fading or partial removal for a cover-up may take fewer.
You may start seeing results after the first session, but significant fading often becomes more noticeable after the third or fourth.
Ink Fades in Layers—Just Like It Was Applied
Tattoo artists apply ink in layers to get solid lines and saturated color. The PiQo4 laser removes it the same way—layer by layer. Each session targets more ink than the last, helping you get closer to the clear skin you’re aiming for.
Colors like black and red fade quickly. Others, like teal, blue, or yellow, take longer. The PiQo4 is specially designed to handle all ink colors, making it one of the most complete solutions available today.
Factors That Influence Your Timeline
Several things can impact how quickly your tattoo fades:
Tattoo depth and ink density
Location on the body (areas with better circulation fade faster)
Your immune system’s efficiency
Skin tone and overall health
Sun exposure and aftercare
Following aftercare instructions and living a healthy lifestyle—hydrating, avoiding smoking, staying active—can all speed up fading.
