Laser Tattoo Removal Offers Second Chances for Many

Sept. 1, 2010 - PRLog -- With the increasing trend towards more tattoos the shift also continues in the direction of more tattoo removals and although there are a number of methods that may work for tattoo removal the most effective method for tattoo removal is performed with a laser. Laser tattoo removal can effectively remove tattoos without producing the scarring or other side effects that were once common place in the tattoo removal industry, and for many, having tattoos removed can create second chances and a world of opportunity.

Sanctuary Medical Aesthetic Center uses the Q-switched laser to remove tattoos. The Q-switched laser technique produces a very short laser pulse that is absorbed by the tattoo only and has no effect on the surround tissue or skin. The laser causes the dye in the tattoo to break down and eventually be removed by the body’s immune system as part of the healing process effectively eliminating the tattoo pigment over time.

The increased popularity of tattoos has resulted in a number of individual who have received tattoos that they later realized that they did not want or that did not fit in with later goals in life. Thus, the need for tattoo removal has become an increasingly popular scenario as well. For many people, having an old tattoo removed opens up new doors and opportunities in life that they otherwise would not have access to such as new career options or eliminating the constant reminder of a “bad time” in life.

Sanctuary Medical Aesthetic Center warns that although tattoo removal is very effective with the Q-switched laser technique, multiple treatments may be required in order to remove professional tattoos or those which have multiple colors. Certain colors are easier to remove with the laser than other such as red, blue and black versus green which does not as easily respond to the laser treatment. The entire treatment process only requires a few minutes and a local anesthesia is administered to prevent discomfort during treatment.

Laser tattoo removal usually requires multiple treatment procedures that break up the pigment under the skin. Tattoo removal lasers such as the Q-switched laser are generally safe and have a minimal risk of scarring when performed by specially trained professionals. Recovery time following the tattoo removal treatment is 1-3 days.
