How does tattoo removal work?
Tattoo removal typically involves the use of laser technology, which breaks down the ink particles in the skin. The body’s immune system then gradually eliminates these smaller ink particles. Different types of lasers are used depending on the ink color and skin type.
Is tattoo removal painful?
The pain level during tattoo removal can vary depending on individual pain tolerance and the size of the tattoo. Many people compare the sensation to getting a tattoo, often describing it as a snapping or stinging feeling. Anesthesia options, such as topical numbing creams or local anesthesia, may be offered to help minimize discomfort.
How many sessions are required for complete removal?
The number of sessions needed for complete tattoo removal varies based on several factors, including the size, location, and color of the tattoo, as well as the individual’s skin type and healing response. On average, most people require between 5 to 10 sessions, spaced several weeks apart, to achieve significant fading or complete removal.
