TATTOO REMOVAL

The principle of laser tattoo removal is simple: The laser light passes through the skin and is absorbed by the tattoo ink. The rapid absorption of the light energy by the tattoo ink causes the ink to break into tiny particles. These particles are then removed by the body's own natural processes leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.

Typically, professional tattoos may require several treatments approximately six to eight weeks apart to satisfactorily remove the tattoo.

PIGMENTED LESIONS

Nearly everyone has pigmented lesions of some type. These areas of the skin contain high concentrations of melanin and are typically caused by an excess of pigment commonly due to sun exposure or congenital factors.

During the treatment, the laser light wavelengths are absorbed only by the unwanted melanin. Raising the temperature of the melanin causes the pigment to shatter. Once the unwanted pigment cells or melanin have been thoroughly fragmented without damage to any surrounding tissue, the body begins removing the shattered melanin particles through phagocytosis during the weeks following treatment, whereby the particles are absorbed by the body leaving little or no trace of the original lesion.
