The process of laser tattoo removal

November 17, 2009
Posted in Tattoo Removal — Written by Nicholas

Laser tattoo removal is one of the safest and most effective forms of tattoo removal available.

Laser tattoo removal involves using laser beams- which are directed onto the tattooed area. The methods used in this procedure often depend on a number of factors, such as the colour of the tattoo, the density of the ink and the depth of the ink in the skin.

Black tattoos are the easiest to remove, as they are able to absorb the majority of the light that is beamed onto it. Tattoos which feature different coloured inks such as yellow or green have less pigmentation, which makes them slightly more difficult to remove. Coloured tattoos require more sessions of treatment than black tattoos in order for them to be completely removed.

The price of tattoo removal treatment depends largely on the number of sessions that are required- which is why the removal of coloured tattoos is usually more expensive.

A good clinic will ensure that the entire laser tattoo removal procedure is carried out following the correct hygiene and safety procedures, so it’s important to choose a reputable and trusted clinic.
