The size of the tattoo industry has exhibited growth over the last few years. Many people have past “tattoo” experiences they would like to erase, so the Requests for tattoo removal have increased..
Modern technology has made possible to remove tattoos using advanced Q-switched Lasers.
The Laser energy is absorbed by the ink particles in a very short time, rising its surface temperature and causing tattoo’s structure fragmentation.
For laser tattoo removal and the selective destruction of tattoo different pigments Dermatologists use Lasers with different wavelengths (Q-switched ruby laser, Q-switched Alexandrite, Q-Switched Nd: YAG).
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions required varies by:
- Size and body area,
- The depth and the quantity of the pigment,
- Whether is recent or not,
- If it is a a professional tattoo or not.
Typically, black and darker-colored inks can be removed more completely, due to the color’s energy absorption.
You need several sessions with an interval of 5-6 weeks. Post-treatment skin hydratation and sun protection are compulsory.
