In California, a PMU or tattoo artist license alone does **not** allow you to legally perform laser tattoo or PMU removal. Laser tattoo removal is considered a medical procedure in California. It may be performed by a licensed physician, or by a registered nurse (RN) or physician assistant (PA) under physician supervision. If you plan to use this device professionally in California, please confirm your licensing and clinic setup with the California Medical Board before offering treatments to clients.
