What Is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Ink particles from tattoos are too big for the body to remove naturally. This is what gives tattoos their permanent quality.
Laser tattoo removal is one of the more convenient methods for breaking down those ink particles, so the body can dispose of them through the lymphatic system.
How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?
The procedure uses a high-powered laser to penetrate the skin. The laser light passes harmlessly through the skin, but when it encounters ink particles in the tattoo, it forces the pigment to vibrate. This vibration creates heat, which in turn causes the particles to break into smaller fragments that the lymphatic system can eventually remove.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF LASER TATTOO REMOVAL?
Some Mistakes Don’t Need to Be Permanent
There are many advantages to tattoo removal, most of which stem from its non-surgical nature of the treatment. Amongst the benefits of this treatment we have:
- No Scaring
The laser light used in this treatment is programmed not to target skin cells that have no pigmentation from the tattoo. Therefore, the risk of scarring is very low compared to other tattoo removal treatments that use skin sanding.
- It’s Very Effective
Laser tattoo removal has proven highly effective at diminishing the appearance of tattoos. With every session, you will see the tattoo gradually fade.
- Minimal Recovery
The treatment is precise, so only the area where the tattoo is located will be affected. You will need to protect your skin from sunlight for a few days. And you may experience some redness or tenderness in the area, but these should subside within a few days.
- It’s Safe
Laser tattoo removal treatments are the safest way to remove unwanted tattoos, with little risk of infection, there few undesirable side effects, minimal pain.
What to expect
The length of each session varies, but it generally lasts between 20 minutes and 1 hour. The results of laser tattoo removal are gradual; you can expect the pigmentation fade with each treatment as your body begins to remove the broken-up pigment particles.
