What is Laser Tattoo Removal? 

Laser tattoo removal works to break down the inks within the skin through the use of focused beams of light using Q-switched lasers. The lasers heat the ink particles in the skin, breaking them into smaller particles and allowing your immune system to remove them. 

  • What are the benefits of laser tattoo removal? – Laser tattoo removal doesn’t leave any ghost images of your previous tattoo or scarring from ink removal. It’s applicable for all skin tones and is a completely non-surgical procedure. 
  • Who’s a good candidate for tattoo removal? – If you find yourself hiding your tattoos or regret having one and have a healthy immune system, you’re considered a good candidate for laser tattoo removal.
  • Is the procedure safe? – Laser tattoo removal works with Q-switched lasers, the only technology capable of penetrating the skin down to the dermis layer without causing damage to the surrounding skin. As the laser shatters pigment deposits, your body safely absorbs and flushes the pigment through your bloodstream. 
  • What are the side effects of laser tattoo removal? – Some side effects after treatment may include blistering, swelling, and bleeding, and our team can provide antibacterial creams to help reduce reactions for your treatment. 
  • What types of skin does tattoo removal work on? – Laser tattoo removal works on all skin types, as it only targets the tattoo ink rather than the skin’s natural pigments. 
  • What types of tattoos can be removed? – Black tattoos can be removed more quickly than others due to how the ink is applied during tattoo sessions. However, both black and colored tattoos can be effectively removed over time. These tattoos also include types such as fine lines, tribal tattoos, and even brightly colored tattoos.

Laser Tattoo Removal: Procedure and Results 

During your consultation with Mara Gomez, APRN, your concerns regarding your tattoo, including its size, shape, and overall appearance. Throughout this time, Mara and her team will discuss the side effects, procedure costs, and risks associated with your desired treatment. During your appointment, Mara, staff members, and qualified estheticians will thoroughly sterilize and cleanse the tattoo area and then use the Q-switched lasers to penetrate the outer layers of skin and break down the tattoo ink. From there, additional appointments will be scheduled to remove the tattoo’s appearance gradually. 

Afterward, Mara and her team will provide post-aftercare instructions to help avoid infections and irritations after the procedure.
