A new laser machine named PicoSure designed to delete tattoos, promises to almost completely remove a tattoo without leaving any shading or scars.

PicoSure, which initially went on sale in the United State, is being tested in the Centre for Laser Medicine at Ruhr University Clinic in Bochum, Germany, News.com.au reported.

The US company Cynosure makes the PicoSure range of laser systems and guarantees that the technology is faster than other lasers and is almost painless.

In the past it used to take between 15 and 20 one-hour sittings to get the job done, but now it takes just a 10 minute sitting.
