Tattoo Removal & Laser Tattoo Removal in Austin, TX

With Laser Tattoo Removal, doctors can fade, lighten, and erase everything from small, single-color tattoos to large, multicolored ones. And, as importantly, there is little risk of the scarring or loss of pigmentation that the other procedures will cause. In many cases, the unwanted tattoo will completely disappear. Greater than 95% fading of the tattoo may be accomplished with laser treatments. However, it is very important to know that over 100 tattoo inks are in use worldwide today, none of which are regulated by the FDA. Not knowing which tattoo ink, how deep or how much was used, makes it impossible for the doctor or Dermatologist to predict the degree of removal on any given tattoo.

Often times, it is the color of the tattoo itself that determines the success of the laser removal treatments. The type of laser used to remove a tatto depends on the tattoo's pigment colors. The Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser has become the standard laser for tattoo removal. This laser effectively removes black, blue, purple and red tattoo pigment. The VersaPulse laser combines four lasers in one unit, including three proven Q-switched lasers (Q-switched ND:YAG, Q-switched Alexandrite, and Q-switched FD ND:YAG and is shown effective in treating all ink colors including yellow and green, typically the hardest colors to remove. The Medlite IV laser also combines laser technology & is effiective for multiple colors of tattoo ink. IPL treatments may also be used on tattoos such as blue & black inks.

For instance, the Sona Medspa in Memphis offers laser tattoo removal. There light-based treatment can remove tattoos safely and quickly and, in most cases, without leaving a scar.

Previous tatoo removal methods are still used including; Tattoo Excision, in which the tattoo removal specialist will remove the skin with the tatto & suture the sides together & dermabrasion tattoo removal in which the skin is "sandpapered" down.
