The Astanza Duality 

Our Laser Technology. Black Out Tattoo Removal uses industry-leading laser technology to ensure the safest treatments and most effective results. The Astanza Duality is renowned amongst leading tattoo artists, medical spas, physicians, and laser practitioners worldwide. We're excited to bring this advanced laser and its unparalleled treatment results to St. Paul. The Astanza Duality is a state-of-the-art Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. Q-switch refers to the type of pulse the laser creates. Unlike laser pointers that produce a continuous beam of light, Q switched lasers have light energy pulses that last as little as billionths of a second. Since the laser releases energy in such a short amount of time, the power is concentrated into very intense pulses. These ultra-short pulses make our Astanza Duality the ultimate solution for safely removing tattoo ink from the skin. The pulses are powerful enough to shatter trapped ink particles tremendously fast, allowing the laser to penetrate the skin without damaging any skin tissue. Our Duality laser also produces two essential wavelengths for removing unwanted tattoos. The 1064 nm and 532 nm wavelengths target various tattoo colors and are safe to use on all skin types. Each wavelength targets a specific group of colors and can remove the majority of tattoo pigments when used together. Furthermore, the Duality features a homogenized square spot laser beam to emit an even distribution of energy across the skin. This unique design minimizes treatment overlap, reducing the risk of side effects, and ensuring safer energy applications for all skin types, especially darker skin types IV-VI.
