The Science Behind Laser Tattoo Removal
Laser tattoo removal is a remarkably efficient process. It revolves around the use of a specialized laser to break down ink pigments embedded in the dermis, the middle layer of your skin where tattoo ink resides. By emitting pulses of light energy, the laser's beams are absorbed by the ink particles, causing them to fragment into smaller components that your body's immune system naturally eliminates over time.
During your session with us, our skilled laser practitioners will assess your tattoo, considering factors such as colors, skin type, and more, to determine the best course of action for partial or complete removal. They'll explain the process, discuss expectations, and address any concerns or questions you may have.
The actual removal process entails a series of treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart. This allows your body to gradually eliminate the fragmented ink particles, resulting in a gradual fading of the tattoo. The number of sessions required varies based on factors like the tattoo's size, color, and age. Generally, achieving complete tattoo removal necessitates multiple sessions, typically ranging from 5 to 10, with intervals of 6 to 8 weeks between each session.
