Laser tattoo removal is becoming increasingly popular, as people look for ways to get rid of unwanted ink. There are a number of reasons why someone might choose to remove a tattoo, including job prospects, personal preference, or simply because they’ve outgrown the design.
Lasers are effective for removing tattoos because they can target specific pigments with high precision. This means that there is less damage to the surrounding tissue, and the risk of side effects is much lower than with other tattoo removal methods, and it usually requires fewer sessions to see results.
Lasers can also be used to remove tattoos that have been resistant to other treatments, such as surgery or topical creams. If you are considering laser tattoo removal, it is important to find a reputable and experienced provider who has the appropriate equipment and training.
When the laser light beam is directed into tattoo underneath the skin, tattoo ink which acts as a pigment absorbs light energy and breaks down into smaller fragments and particles. Smaller fragments of tattoo are then metabolised and removed from the body.
You may feel slight discomfort during the laser procedure. However topical numbing cream will be applied prior to the treatment to increase patient comfort. Generally patient tolerates the laser procedure well.
The tattoo removal process will be influenced by the skin’s colour, depth of the pigment in the tattoo and colour of the tattoo.
The number of sessions will differ depending on the size and colour of your tattoo. Three to eight visit or more, may be necessary to completely remove your tattoo.
Superficial tattoos may require lesser number of sessions, while larger and deeper tattos require more.
Any tattoo requires a number of treatments and visits. The tattoo should get lighter following each treatment.

You should avoid drinking alcohol or taking any medications that can thin your blood for at least 24 hours before the treatment. These measures will help reduce the risk of bleeding or bruising during the tattoo removal process.
After your laser tattoo removal treatment, it is important to follow the aftercare instructions to ensure that the treated area heals quickly and without complication.
Typically, you will be advised to keep the treated area clean and dry for the first 24 hours. After this, you can gently wash it with a mild soap and pat it dry. You should avoid scrubbing the area or using any harsh cleansers. You may also be advised to apply a thin layer of cream provided to aid healing.
It is important to avoid exposing the treated area to sunlight or other sources of ultraviolet light, such as tanning beds, for at least six weeks. If you must be in the sun, be sure to cover the area with a sunscreen that has an SPF of 30 or higher.
You may experience some redness, swelling, and itching after your treatment. This is normal and should subside within a few days.
Blisters sometimes occur after laser tattoo removal. If this happens, do not pop the blister. Simply allow it to heal on its own. If the blister breaks, clean the area with soap and water and apply a bandage if necessary.
