Tattoos were used as marks of identification of a person in ancient times but now, they have become a way of decorating your skin or conveying messages/personality types etc. When you get yourself inked, you love it at that time. But you may want to get rid of the same tattoo which you had got done with tremendous zest, at some point in our life. Laser tattoo removal or permanent tattoo removal is the process of removing tattoos and other forms of body ink by using lasers on fragment particles of ink so that they can be absorbed naturally by the skin.


What Types Of Tattoos Are Removed?

All types of tattoos can be removed using permanent tattoo removal process i.e. laser tattoo removal. This will include tattoos done by professionals and accidental tattoos that are caused by bruising and injury of the skin. Colored tattoos are also removed, although yellow or green tattoos pose a greater challenge when it comes to removal and subsequent permanent tattoo removal treatments may be necessary.

How Do Q Switched Lasers Work?

A specific wavelength of light passes into the skin and gets absorbed by the ink. As a result, the tattoo ink breaks into small particles which can then be eliminated by body's natural filtering systems. The surrounding skin is never harmed. Different colors of ink have different spectra and so the laser machine has to be calibrated according to the ink to be removed. Any kind of tattoos - amateur, professional, surgical and tattoos formed after any injury, can be removed using laser treatment for tattoo removal

What Is The Laser?

Treatments for laser tattoo removal may require local anesthesia and there may be associated pain and reaction at the site of laser delivery, which resolves in a few days. Professional tattoos require 6-10 sessions, whereas amateur ones need 4-5 sessions, all spaced at an interval of 6-8 weeks. The type and amount of ink used, and the depth of the ink in the skin - all these factors decide how many sessions of treatments would be required for you.

Is It Painful?

At The Skin Art, the process of laser tattoo removal is performed with some amount of mild pain that can be managed by use of a local anesthetic.

What Are The Points To Remember When Undergoing This Procedure ?

  1. Every skin is different, just like every individual is unique. One must have realistic expectations and not get carried away by advertisements, results obtained in other patients, celebrities etc.
  2. Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon with ample years of experience should be your treating physician.
  3. There are various makes of the Q switched laser available, and all machines do not have the same power, just like all physicians performing a particular procedure do not have the same level of expertise. Hence, you may be getting the right treatment done, but may be disappointment with the results, so choose your service provider wisely.
  4. Multiple sessions are required in colorful tattoos. There may be a faint image still persisting even after multiple treatments depending on size, color, number of sessions needed etc.
