Laser tattoo removal uses advanced lasers to break down tattoo ink particles in the skin, allowing your body to gradually clear them away. The treatment is safe and effective, with minimal side effects like temporary redness or swelling. Multiple sessions are needed, as each visit lightens the tattoo further. Black ink is easiest to remove, while other colors may require more sessions or special lasers. Most patients experience only mild discomfort, similar to a rubber band snap. After each session, follow your provider’s aftercare advice to promote healing and reduce the risk of scarring.
