Laser tattoo removal is a safe, minimally-invasive procedure that helps eliminate unwanted tattoos. The laser tattoo removal procedure doesn’t hurt and effectively removes any part of your tattoo that you dislike or want to replace. The procedure involves focussing a beam of light on the surface of your skin in order to destroy any ink deposited within it. This causes the body cells surrounding the pigment along with the large pigment molecules to break down, which results in its disappearance over time.
Laser tattoo removal is a safe, effective, and permanent way to eliminate your tattoos.
Laser tattoo removal works by breaking up the pigment particles in the tattoo. The ink absorbs the laser energy, which then breaks down into smaller particles that are easily removed through your body's immune system.
The laser beam is applied to the tattoo over its surface in a series of passes that remove ink from its outer layers while leaving the underlying skin unharmed or at least less damaged. Laser tattoo removal is painful in some cases as the laser energy has to reach the pigment deposited in the deeper layers of the skin which also have the nerve fibers.
Laser tattoo removal is a relatively more expensive treatment than standard tattoo removal treatments. The cost of laser tattoo removal generally depends on the size and location of your tattoo, as well as how many sessions you need.
There are some side effects that you should be aware of. The redness and swelling associated with laser tattoo removal treatment will last up to two weeks, while the blistering can last up to three weeks. These symptoms may cause discomfort, but they shouldn’t be too severe or interfere with your daily life.
Scarring is another potential issue associated with this type of treatment, especially if it's done incorrectly or not treated immediately after your procedure has been completed. If you have any scars remaining after getting tattoos removed by lasers, then it may take longer than expected until they disappear entirely. You'll also want to avoid other treatments, like chemical peels, that could also cause scarring because these methods often leave behind new areas of discoloration on top of what was originally there before being permanently removed from your body.
