What is Laser Tattoo Removal?

Laser tattoo removal is a dermatologist-performed, aesthetic procedure for the precise removal of permanent tattoo inks with a light beam of a specific wavelength.

How Laser Tattoo Removal Works?

A high-intensity, short-pulse beam of light, when focused onto the tattoo, generates immense heat. The tattoo pigments absorb the thermal energy of laser light and are shattered into tiny pieces. These pigments are further cleared by immune system cells, leading to fading of the tattoo.

Step-by-Step Laser Tattoo Removal Treatment Journey- What to Expect

1. Initial Consultation

The laser tattoo removal experts and dermatologist at Citrine Clinic, a modern laser tattoo removal clinic in Delhi, will perform a thorough evaluation of the tattoo, identify the skin type/tone, and discuss the expected outcomes and treatment plan. A picture of the tattoo might be taken to compare with the results.

2. Preparation

Sun-protect the tattoo. Avoid injuries, infections, or other active skin conditions over the tattoo; use of blood thinners, smoking, tight clothing, harsh treatments, and dehydration.

3. The Session

A protective eyewear will be asked to wear. The tattooed skin will be cleaned and numbed with local anaesthesia. A professional will direct short pulses of high-intensity laser over the tattoo after doing a small patch test. The laser light is passed over the tattoo a few times.

4. After Session

The treated skin may show reactions such as scabbing, blistering, swelling, and redness or pigmentation changes, which resolve over time. It will be soothed, moisturised, and sun-protected. Before going home, the professional will share follow-up schedules and aftercare instructions.

FAQs on Laser Tattoo Removal

Is laser tattoo removal safe?

Laser tattoo removal is FDA-cleared and considered the safest option among tattoo removal methods when performed by a skilled, experienced professional. The common, mild, and temporary side effects include redness, swelling, itching, crusting, blistering, discomfort, and frosting.

Does laser tattoo removal hurt?

The session-related discomfort is generally tolerable. The intensity felt depends on your pain threshold, the targeted area, and the chosen laser type. The session can be made painless/fully comfortable with the use of a numbing cream. Post-session discomfort is temporary and mild, easily manageable.

Does laser tattoo removal cause scars?

Laser tattoo removal does not cause scarring if the flaky skin, blisters, or scabs on the healing treated area are not scratched or picked, and the treated area is kept clean and UV-shielded.

How many laser sessions will be required to get rid of a permanent tattoo?

Every tattoo is different, and so is the type of laser used to remove them. Generally, 4 to 15 laser sessions will be required, with a minimum 1-month gap between sessions. A month-long interval is needed for the tattoo ink to be broken down by the immune system and for the skin to heal optimally.

How soon will the tattoo disappear after laser treatment?

Tattoo will start to fade within 2-4 weeks of laser treatment, and significant fading will require 6-12 weeks. Complete removal may take 1-2 years. If you, too, wish for permanent tattoo removal with a minimally invasive approach, get ahead with laser tattoo removal in Delhi at Citrine Clinic.
