What is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Laser tattoo removal is a cosmetic procedure aimed at removing unwanted tattoos through the use of advanced laser technology. At Renew Beauty, we employ the Spectrum laser system, a state-of-the-art device designed for effective and precise tattoo removal. This procedure is non-invasive and targets the ink embedded in the skin without harming the surrounding tissue. The laser light is specifically tuned to interact with the pigments in the tattoo, gradually breaking them down so that they can be naturally expelled by the body.
How fast will I see results?
Laser tattoo removal operates on the principle of selective photothermolysis. The Spectrum laser system delivers high-intensity pulses of light that are absorbed by the tattoo pigments in the skin. Each type of pigment absorbs different wavelengths of light, so the Spectrum’s ability to adjust its wavelengths allows it to target a wide range of ink colors and types.When the laser light hits the ink particles, it heats them rapidly, causing them to fragment into smaller pieces. These smaller particles are easier for the body to process and remove. The body's lymphatic system then gradually flushes out these fragments over several weeks. The procedure involves multiple treatments, as each session progressively breaks down the ink particles further, with each successive treatment making the tattoo appear lighter. The Spectrum’s advanced technology also helps minimize damage to surrounding skin and enhances overall treatment efficiency, ensuring a more comfortable and effective removal process.
How does it work?
The timeline for seeing results from laser tattoo removal can vary based on several factors, including the tattoo's size, color, and depth, as well as your skin type and the body's natural healing response. Generally, you can begin to see visible fading of the tattoo a few weeks after your first treatment. However, achieving significant results usually requires a series of sessions, typically spaced 6-8 weeks apart, to allow your skin to heal and for the body to process the fragmented ink.
With each session, you should notice progressive improvement as the tattoo becomes lighter. Full removal or substantial fading often takes multiple treatments, and the final results are usually evident after completing the recommended treatment series. It’s important to follow your specialist’s guidance on session frequency and aftercare to optimize the results and ensure a smoother removal process.
