Tattoo Removal & Laser Tattoo Removal in Charlotte, NC
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, Sona Medspa with offices in Charlotte & Huntersville offers laser tattoo removal. The light-based treatment at Sona Medspa works by eradicating tattoos range from a single wavelength of light to a broad spectrum of light, the varieties of which are intended to obliterate the ink in the tattoo without damaging the skin..
