How Tattoo removal works
Wavelength selection for ink color and breakdown of pigment particles
Black and multicolored tattoos may require different wavelengths. Ink composition, density and depth, previous tattoo layering and existing scars are assessed together. Some permanent-makeup pigments can darken after laser treatment, so a small test area may be considered; complete removal is not guaranteed.
Expected changes and suitable candidates
Assess ink color, depth, layering and existing scars to select wavelength and treatment area; check the possibility of paradoxical pigment darkening
An examination is appropriate when you wish to lighten or remove a tattoo. Risks of hypopigmentation and hyperpigmentation must also be compared according to skin color and tattoo location.
We assess the gap between your current condition and desired changes, and discuss the treatment's scope and limitations. Individual responses can differ.
Number of sessions, intervals and duration
Multiple sessions may be needed, allowing time for skin recovery and pigment clearance. Do not pick scabs or pop blisters; the next treatment is determined by the degree of fading.
Planning before and after treatment
- Consultation: share your medical history, past treatments and important dates.
- Planning: confirm the treatment areas, products or devices and recovery plan.
- Follow-up: follow the aftercare instructions and contact a medical institution about unusual symptoms.
Possible side effects and precautions
Energy-based procedures can cause redness, swelling, pain or temporary changes in sensation. Depending on the device and settings, burns, changes in skin color or uneven skin texture may occur, so skin condition and treatment history are reviewed first.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, inflammation at the treatment site, implanted devices and medication can affect suitability. A clinician should assess these according to the guidance for the particular product and device.
Tattoo removal prices and costs
Final cost depends on the exact product or device, area, amount, number of sessions and any additional procedures. Check VAT inclusion and event eligibility conditions together.
