Tattoos have played a major role in terms of symbolism and self expression for the human culture throughout history. However, in any case of permanently decorating the body, regrets and mind changes will surely emerge, and the desire for tattoo removal will be requested. Fortunately regardless of the motives of removing a tattoo, tattoo removal can now be achieved for all sizes, shapes, and colors without any scarring and perfect results.
Because each tattoo is unique, each tattoo removal procedure is tailored to suit the characteristics of that individual tattoo. For example, tattoos that have been done professionally tend to penetrate deeper levels of the skin with ink at uniform levels. This uniform composition of the ink allows dermatologists and laser surgeons to eliminate larger areas of tattoo inked skin at the same depth. In contrast, tattoos applied at home are usually performed with an uneven hand and therefore removing it will be harder
Laser tattoo removal is an extremely effective method for the removal of unwanted tattoos. Amateur tattoos are generally easier to remove than professional ones, and they also tend to fade away naturally as time passes. Multicolored professional tattoos that have red, blue, yellow and other colors may need multiple treatment sessions in order to be completely removed. In addition, black ink is surprisingly easier to remove than color inks such as green and white, which typically need to get treated my longer laser wavelengths. Depending on the size and color of your tattoo, the number of treatments that you will need in order to fully remove your tattoo will vary. Each tattoo and patient is unique. Therefore treatment with the laser will be different for each patient depending on their age, size and type of tattoo (amateur or professional) that the patient has. The color of the patient’s skin and the depth of the pigment in the skin will also affect the method of tattoo removal.
