The Sapphire Pro has a Japan made motor, with less strength and running time. Pro devices can only be used with the 4-speed power supply. We do not recommend the Pro to be used with Ultra Precision Needles because the needles require a stronger motor for pigment implantation. The Sapphire Elite has a German made motor and is compatible with the iStar power source and the 4-speed power control. We recommend using Ultra Precision Needles with this device but the Elite can also be used with the Sapphire Pro series needles.

The #3 round or the #5 round tend to be our best sellers, however it really depends on the artist and his/her training.

The Nano needle is tapered to provide better needle stability. The taper is from .2mm to .18mm where the needle contacts the skin.

The most popular MIDAS needles are the #11, #12, and #18-U. However, we just added the #13 Nano which is becoming very popular as well.

For machines within warranty, we offer complimentary repair or replacement (depending on what is wrong). If this is you, please fill out a Machine Service Request Form and send it in with your device. For machines outside of warranty, we charge a $35 repair fee for service.

The reason our needles are more expensive is because we ensure 100% quality which means zero waste products as well as authentic sterilization certificates.

Blue Ice is the most popular anesthetic, however it is important to know it only works when applied to broken skin. If applied pre-procedure, without opening the skin it will not work. For a pre-procedure anesthetic we recommend either Zensa or Numpot.
