Laser tattoo removal involves the use of high-intensity light beams that penetrate the skin and break up the ink molecules in the tattoo pigment. The laser light selectively targets the ink while leaving the surrounding skin tissue unharmed. The broken-up ink particles are then absorbed and naturally eliminated by the lymphatic system in the body. The number of laser tattoo removal sessions required will depend on various factors, such as the size, color, and location of the tattoo, as well as the patient’s skin type.
One of the benefits of laser tattoo removal is that it is a non-invasive and relatively safe procedure. While some discomfort may be experienced during the treatment, there is typically no bleeding, scarring, or downtime required. However, it’s important to note that not everyone is a suitable candidate for laser tattoo removal. Individuals with certain medical conditions or skin types may not respond well to the treatment. It’s essential to consult with a qualified dermatologist or laser specialist like us, at Laser Eraser, before deciding to undergo laser tattoo removal.
During a laser tattoo removal session, the patient will be given protective eyewear and the treated area will be cleansed. The laser device will be passed over the tattoo, emitting short pulses of light to break up the ink particles. The sensation is often described as being similar to the snap of a rubber band against the skin. After the treatment, ice packs may be applied to soothe the treated area. Depending on the size and complexity of the tattoo, each session can last between 15 and 30 minutes.
