Many people have done it: had a tattoo put on only to wish they had thought twice. Tattoos are permanent and are designed to be, but they need not remain that way. Modern laser technology offers laser tatoo removal, a great way to dramatically lighten, diminish, and remove your tattoos. With the use of state-of-the-art lasers to stimulate the body’s immune system, tattoo inks are flushed out after a certain number of treatments.
Arriving at a tattoo removal clinic for a consultation which may or may not be free of charge (depending on the clinic, they may put the charge toward your first treatment with them), it is a great idea to make sure that you know whether or not your tattoo and your skin type are compatible with the lasers at that particular clinic. You may find it helpful to do some research on laser tatoo removal in your area to see what types of lasers are used. There are three common lasers used for modern laser tatoo removal.
Each laser is called a Q-Switched laser and each one has its own light frequency and wavelength operating options. Each laser works best with certain types of tattoo ink colors. For example, the Q-Switched Ruby Laser works best on green tattoos, while the Q-Switched YAG Laser has an option to alter the wavelengths for both dark blue or bald ink and red or orange inks. The Q-Switched Alexandrite Laser works best for green and blue-black inks. So each laser is only used if its wavelength capacity is best for the tattoo in question. Learning about the types of lasers being used and what will work best for your laser tatoo removal is a great idea.
