A laser used for tattoo removal is a highly focused tool that emits a concentrated beam of light onto the skin to eliminate unwanted tattoos. This laser targets darker colors present in the tattoo ink over the lighter skin tone. When the laser beam hits the tattoo ink, it breaks it into tiny particles that are no longer visible to the naked eye and can be absorbed and eliminated by the body’s natural lymphatic system.
The Q-Switched Nd YAG Laser is specifically crafted for tattoo removal, delivering high-powered laser light to the skin in fractions of a second to minimize skin damage and reduce the risk of scarring. Typically, treatments are fast and clients experience minimal discomfort. The older the tattoo, the more sessions may be required, especially for tattoos with various colors and intricate designs.
Our clinic provides treatments using a Q Switched Nd YAG Laser, capable of removing tattoos with black, dark and light blue, green, and red pigments in 6-12 sessions, depending on the tattoo’s quality. By matching the laser color to the tattoo ink color, both multi-colored professional tattoos and single-color amateur tattoos can be safely and effectively removed.
Laser Technology: Different types of lasers are used depending on the ink color and skin type. The most common lasers include Q-switched lasers, which emit powerful pulses of light energy in very short durations. Specific lasers like the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser are often used because they can target a wide range of ink colors.
Ink Fragmentation: The laser light is absorbed by the tattoo ink, causing the ink particles to heat up and shatter into smaller pieces. These smaller particles are then gradually removed by the body’s immune system over time.
Multiple Sessions: Complete removal usually requires multiple treatment sessions, spaced several weeks apart. The number of sessions depends on factors such as the size, color, and age of the tattoo, as well as the patient’s skin type.
