Cynosure sold the machines to dermatology and tattoo removal practices across the country beginning in 2012 when it was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint alleges that although the company advertises that the machine removes tattoos and shows pictorial results, the machine does not do so. Allegedly, Cynosure published <a href=\"\/product-liability\/marketing-defects\/\">marketing<\/a> materials that described Picosure as \u201cthe world\u2019s first and only picosecond laser for tattoo removal,\u201d showing before-and-after images where tattoo ink had been completely removed.<\/p>\n<p>Dermatology and tattoo removal practices purchased the Picosure device under the belief that it would remove tattoos as advertised. When they began to raise questions regarding the efficacy and safety of the product, says the complaint, Cynosure continued to make misrepresentations regarding its product and did not allow companies to return the product for a refund.<\/p>\n<p>This action is currently pending in the Northern District of Illinois Federal Court.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on this developing case, visit:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/cookcountyrecord.com\/stories\/510625065-dermatologist-claims-laser-tattoo-removal-tool-is-fraud-brings-class-action-vs-mass-based-maker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dermatologist Claims Laser Tattoo Removal Tool Is Fraud, Brings Class Action<br \/>\nvs Mass.-Based Maker<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cynosure.com\/product\/picosure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">About Cynosure\u2019s Picosure Device<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Protecting Consumers in Chicago<\/h2>\n<p>The Chicago product liability attorneys at Power Rogers have handled a number of product liability and defective product injury cases over the years, and Attorney Devon Bruce has recovered millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for clients harmed by faulty products.
