HOW DOES TATTOO REMOVAL WORK?

Due to advancements in laser technology, tattoo removal in Arlington and Gainesville VA is legitimately made possible. It works by using laser that penetrates the skin with a nanosecond intense light which then causes the skin to break up the ink particles. Due to the particles breaking apart, they then become smaller and the immune system removes the pigments over time. Laser tattoo removal is a safe method and does not target any of the surrounding skin that is not inked.

TECHNOLOGY IN USE

Tattoo ink and natural pigmentation like melanin absorb short pulse duration/high peak energy pulses so quickly that they create a photo-acoustic effect within the pigment clusters. This effect breaks down the ink into much smaller particles that can be more easily removed by the body’s natural filtering system.

KEY ADVANTAGES FOR PATIENTS
