Laser Removal (Most Common): Lasers heat ink particles, shattering them into smaller pieces the body can remove.
Types: Q-switched and picosecond lasers are used, with specific wavelengths chosen for ink color and skin tone.
Process: Numbing cream or injection, laser pulses, followed by aftercare.
Expect: Multiple sessions (6-10 or more) with 6-8 weeks between for healing.
What to Expect During & After Laser Removal
Consultation: A dermatologist assesses your tattoo and skin.
Preparation: Skin is cleaned, and a numbing cream or local anesthetic is applied.
Treatment: Lasers target and break down ink.
Immediate Aftermath: Swelling, redness, blistering, or scabbing can occur.

Apply antibacterial ointment.

Avoid sun, tight clothing, and picking at scabs.
