tattoo removal metode with laser

There are currently three types of lasers available for tattoo removal:

• Alexandrite,
• YAG and
• Ruby

Each works on different pigment colors and compounds, so the dermatologist will use one or a combination of lasers depending on the nature of a specific tattoo. It follows that you would want to select a dermatologist that has the specific laser necessary for removing your tattoo.

A tattoo’s pigment has been inserted into the dermal layer of the skin through ruptures in the skin’s top layer, or epidermis. In very short pulses, the laser light is selectively absorbed by the color of the tattoo ink.

This high energy causes the tattoo ink to fragment into smaller pigment particles that are then removed by the body’s immune system. Whether it’s a tiny fish on an ankle or a large design covering half of the back, in most cases laser treatments can remove up to 90 to 95 percent of a tattoo, although multiple sessions will most likely be necessary.

It is possible that tattoo removal treatment could bring out a latent herpes infection so a patient must alert his dermatologist if he has a herpes infection in the area of the tattoo.

In some cases where herpes is involved the doctor will prescribe a preventative antibiotic prior to the tattoo removal procedure. Additionally, it is advised that patients don’t go into the sun prior to having a tattoo removed because skin burnt from the sun reacts more strongly to laser treatment.
