If so, you may be curious about the different types of removal procedures available. To help you choose the best tattoo removal method, we will explain some of the options available for you to choose from. You’ve likely heard of the different techniques that can be used to remove an unwanted tattoo. While these procedures may provide you with the results you want, they can also leave you with unwanted scars. Having a tattoo surgically removed is one option; while this option may be effective for very small sized tattoo removal, it often results in scarring of the skin if the tattoo is larger in size. Another tattoo removal method is cryosurgery, also referred to as cryotherapy. During this type of procedure, your tattoo is freeze-burned using liquid nitrogen. While this procedure has been proven to be effective in the removal of warts, it does leave something to be desired when it comes to successfully removing a tattoo. LASER TATTOO REMOVAL IS EFFECTIVE One of the most popular and effective tattoo removal methods is laser tattoo removal. This process is effective because the ink of your tattoo can be targeted by the laser which then causes the ink to break up into fragments. These residual fragments of ink are then naturally eliminated from your body by your immune system. The process of removing your tattoo through the use of lasers is not a single visit procedure. In order to obtain the desired results, you should be prepared for multiple visits. While laser tattoo removal can be a rather time consuming procedure, it has been shown to be the most effective when it comes to lessening the visibility of your tattoo. The technology used in the laser removal process has advanced in recent years. You can now expect to see less scarring, in some cases none at all, and the level of pain experienced is rather minimal. So, rather than waste time trying other procedures, you should definitely consider laser removal. It has been shown to be the most effective tattoo removal method available. ![]() It’s Important to Know About Laser Tattoo Removal Safety Laser tattoo removal is something that anyone who has grown tired of their tattoos can benefit from. To help you understand the process and what is involved, I have listed some helpful tips that will help you understand laser tattoo removal safety. When you first arrive for your appointment, you will undergo some basic preparation. This will include the placement of protective eye shields over your eyes to protect them from the laser that will be used. Your skin will also be tested to determine how it will react to the laser. This also helps the technician determine what the most effective energy level for treatment should be. Once you have undergone the initial preparation for the procedure, you are then ready to begin the procedure. During the course of treatment, you will have a hand piece placed against the surface of your skin. Once the laser has been activated, you will soon begin to experience the pulse of the laser. Many people have described this as being similar to having a rubber band snapped against your skin. While it is common for tattoos that are smaller to require fewer sessions, you should be aware that the larger your tattoo is, the more treatments you will need to receive to lighten the tattoo to a point that you are satisfied with. Once your treatment has been completed, you will then receive an ice pack which should be placed on the area that was treated with the laser. You will also receive after care instructions that may include directions on the application of any topical antibiotic creams or ointments. You will also be instructed to apply sunscreen to the area that was treated to help protect it from the harmful rays of the sun. You should keep in mind that once your procedure has been performed, your skin is at risk of becoming infected. You are also at risk of developing a scar on the skin where the procedure was performed. If properly treated, you will greatly reduce the risk of infection. Another risk that is associated with tattoo removal is hypopigmentation; this is when the skin that was treated with the laser becomes lighter than the surrounding skin. |
