An estimated 20 million Americans have tattoos, and many of them now feel that having a tattoo does not fit their new image. Today’s advanced laser technology provides the means for your tattoo to be removed safely and quickly and, in most cases, without leaving a scar. Laser tattoo removal is the safest, quickest and most likely to leave your skin intact following treatment. Today, cosmetic medical lasers designed to eradicate tattoos range from a single wavelength of light to a broad spectrum of light, the varieties of which are intended to obliterate the ink in the tattoo without damaging the skin. The light energy vaporizes or fragments the ink particles. Your body then absorbs these ink fragments naturally and the color fades over the next couple of weeks. The results and appearance of the tattoo vary from patient to patient. After each treatment session you should see the tattoo become lighter. Due to the various levels of professionalism and types of inks used in tattooing, the results and the number of treatments may vary. Typically, multiple treatments will be required and are scheduled 4 weeks apart. |
