Attenuate or remove a tattoo gradually
Laser tattoo removal makes it possible to gradually fade or even eliminate a tattoo.
The treatment acts directly on the pigments present in the skin, while respecting the surrounding tissue.
Since each tattoo is unique (color, depth, age), an initial assessment makes it possible to assess the number of sessions required and the possible results.
How does laser tattoo removal work?
The treatment is based on a picosecond laser, which sends very fast and targeted pulses.
This energy breaks up tattoo pigments into very fine particles, which are then eliminated naturally by the body over time.
This technology allows:
- a precise action on pigments
- gradual and controlled elimination
- often fewer sessions than with old technology
What tattoos can be treated?
The effectiveness depends on several factors: color, depth, skin type, and age of the tattoo.
The most responsive tattoos are:
- black tattoos
- professional or decorative tattoos
- accidental tattoos
Some colors such as red, green or blue can also be treated, while other pigments (yellow, beige) remain more complex to remove.
Course of a session
The session generally lasts between 5 and 30 minutes depending on the size of the tattoo.
A tingling or hot sensation may be experienced during treatment.
After the session, it is possible to observe:
- redness
- small bubbles
- the formation of scabs
These reactions are normal and are part of the healing process.
Number of sessions and results
Tattoo removal is a gradual process.
On average, several sessions are necessary (often between 4 and 10, sometimes more), spaced a few weeks apart.
The result improves over time, but complete disappearance cannot always be guaranteed.
Precautions
To optimize results:
- avoid sun exposure before and after sessions
- protect the treated area
- do not scratch scabs
