What Is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Laser tattoo removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses concentrated light energy to remove tattoos. The laser’s energy targets the pigment in the ink and makes it easier for the body to remove. This process gives you the option to erase or lighten a tattoo that no longer suits your style.
How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?
Our system will safely deliver energy beneath the surface of the skin, selectively targeting ink particles. This creates a photoacoustic shock wave that shatters the ink particles into a million tiny pieces. Over time, your body’s lymphatic system naturally flushes the ink particles away, resulting in ink-free skin. This advanced laser beam works in different wavelengths. Each wavelength is attracted to a different ink color, making Alma Harmony exceptionally efficient at treating both darker and brighter shades.
Our Device: Alma Harmony XL Pro Laser
We use the Harmony XL Pro for laser tattoo removal because it offers a versatile and powerful solution for treating all types of tattoos. This multi-application platform combines multiple technologies, including a Q-Switched Nd laser, which is highly effective at targeting deep and resistant tattoo pigments. The device’s unique ability to adapt its wavelengths to different colors also makes it stand out from other systems.The Benefits of Our Laser Tattoo Removal Services
- Precise Removal: Our laser tattoo removal technology allows for incredibly accurate targeting of tattoo ink, meaning only the areas with the tattoo are treated, leaving surrounding skin untouched. This precision makes it possible to treat even the most intricate designs or to leave sections of the tattoo untreated if desired.
- Reduced Risk of Scarring: Because the treatment works under the skin, our laser minimizes the chances of scarring.
- Minimal Downtime: You can quickly return to your daily activities with little to no interruption. The treatment is designed to fit into your lifestyle, so you won’t need to plan around lengthy recovery periods with each session.
- Gradual Fading: Your tattoo fades over time with several treatment sessions. This gives your skin the chance to heal naturally between sessions.
What to Expect From Laser Tattoo Removal
Preparing for Laser Tattoo Removal
Before beginning your tattoo removal services, we recommend avoiding sun exposure since tanned or sunburned skin can affect the laser’s effectiveness and the sensitivity of the skin. If you’re currently using any skin care products that contain retinoids or other harsh ingredients, it’s a good idea to pause their use a few days before your appointment to minimize any potential irritation.
Your Laser Tattoo Removal Treatment
When you arrive for your tattoo removal services, we will make sure you are comfortable and fully informed about the process. The session will begin with the application of the Alma Harmony XL Pro laser. We move the device slowly across the skin as pulses of laser light are applied to the area. As each section is treated, the tattoo will take on a frosted look which means the treatment has been effective in the area. Depending on the size of your tattoo, the session may last anywhere from a few minutes to an hour.
Post-Treatment Care and Instructions
After your treatment, we’ll provide you with simple, clear instructions to help your skin recover smoothly. It’s best to keep the treated area clean and apply any recommended ointments to aid healing. You may experience some redness, swelling, or tenderness which will resolve over the next week. To support the fading process, avoid direct sun exposure on the treated area and wear a high-SPF sunscreen to protect your skin as it heals.
Frequently Asked Questions About Laser Tattoo Removal
The pain of laser tattoo removal is subjective. Some patients find it to be less painful than getting the original tattoo while others find it more painful. The sensation is similar to having a rubber band snapped on the skin which can be more or less uncomfortable depending on the area being treated. We make the treatment as comfortable as possible by offering options such as topical numbing cream. Please communicate with us about any discomfort you are experiencing so we can adjust the treatment as needed.
Improved laser technology allows us to treat colors that were not treatable before. Laser tattoo removal can treat a wide range of colors, including traditionally difficult hues like green, blue, and yellow. During your consultation, we will let you know what to expect from the removal process, taking into account your specific tattoo.
Yes, you can get a new tattoo over the treated area once your skin has fully healed. It’s typically recommended to wait until the skin has completely recovered and the ink has fully faded before applying a new tattoo. This waiting period helps ensure that the new tattoo looks its best and that the skin is in optimal condition.
