7 Most Concerned About Tattoo Removal

 At present, tattoos have become a way for many people to pursue fashion, but sometimes all kinds of strange tattoo designs may also bring troubles to our lives. If you are looking for a safe and effective way to remove tattoos, then you need to know the following:

1. How does laser tattoo removal work?

Many people are curious about how to remove tattoos using laser technology? When using a laser to remove a tattoo, the laser will directly act on the tattoo area. The light energy pulse generated by this laser will penetrate the superficial skin and then be absorbed by the ink of the tattoo. The tattoo ink will split into each time it absorbs the energy of the laser. More and more small fragments will be gradually metabolized by the body's immune system until the tattoo pattern disappears. The working principle of the whole treatment process is actually very clear. Therefore, laser tattoo removal is considered the safest treatment.


      2. Can tattoos be completely removed?

To be precise, it can be completely removed. Because everyone's tattoos may be different, the length of time required for complete removal mainly depends on the following aspects:

1) Skin type. The depth of skin tone is a very important factor. Generally speaking, people with lighter skin tone will get tattoos removed faster and easier. Darker skin can only be removed by using a higher-energy laser, and it is likely to have pigmentation and scars after removal.

2) Laser technology and professionals. Good laser technology and a sufficiently professional tattoo removal artist determine whether you will leave scars after treatment. Generally, Q-switch and Picosure Tattoo Removal technology are the most common, and they do not leave scars.

3) The depth of tattoo ink. When you find an experienced tattoo removal specialist to remove the tattoo, he will study your tattoo ink and specify a complete treatment plan based on your skin condition and the depth of the tattoo ink. This may take a long process, so it is important to find a sufficiently professional and satisfactory tattoo removal specialist.

4) The location of the tattoo. Tattoos that are easier to remove are near the heart, face and neck. Because the blood circulation in these positions is relatively fast, the healing speed will be faster, and the removal of tattoos on the forearms and calves will be slower because the circulation in these positions is relatively slowly.

5) The depth and type of tattoo ink. The tattoo colors darker, the more times it needs to be removed, and the more difficult it is to remove. The lighter color will be easier to remove. Black ink is the easiest to completely remove, followed by green and blue tattoo inks, and purple, yellow, and white tattoo pigments are the most difficult to completely remove.

3. Is tattoo removal painful?

The pain often varies from person to person. Some people find it a little uncomfortable, and some people find the pain unbearable. Of course, this is also related to the use of tattoo removal techniques. If the energy of laser technology is too high, the more painful it will be. The less energy laser is used to remove the tattoo, the less pain will be and the less damage to the skin will be. Before laser tattoo removal, you can also use some other methods to relieve pain, such as taking painkillers such as ibuprofen capsules, or applying local anesthesia to the treatment area, but before that, you need to consult a doctor if it is feasible.

4. Are old tattoos easier to remove?

Yes, because the tattoo ink will be easier to remove, it will spread to the surface of the skin over time, the tattoo ink will be absorbed into the immune system, and then use laser treatment, the tattoo will be easier to remove.

5. Can salt and ice remove a tattoo?

Ice and salt treatment is a non-laser tattoo removal method,It is to put a mixture of salt on the wound, the salt will irritate the wound, and then the secretions will suck out the tattoo ink. However, the mixture of salt and ice will not only frostbite and burn the surface of the skin, but also will not actually remove the tattoo. If it is not handled properly, it will also cause infection. Therefore, you should find a safe and effective way to remove the tattoo.

6. How much does it cost for tattoo removal?

Usually, the average cost of removing a tattoo is about 200-500 US dollars every times. The price varies from person to person, It depends on the depth of the tattoo, tattoo size and tattoo time. If you have a larger area and a darker color, the more treatments you need to remove, it may spend more. In this case, you can buy a technologically advanced laser tattoo removal machine, the tattoo removal price is about 1000-2000 US dollars, so you can control the cost within a certain range, this choice will be a lot more favorable.

7. How should I follow the tattoo aftercare instructions?

After you finish the laser tattoo removal treatment, the whole process is not over yet. Good aftercare after treatment can speed up the removal of the tattoo.

You need to do the following aspects:

1) For the first three days, cover the treated area with a layer of antibiotic healing ointment. Wrap it with sterilized gauze. You can remove the bandage after three days, but keep the area as clean and dry as possible. Do not apply any other creams or cosmetics to the treatment area for the first few days. Vitamin E oil can also be used to heal damaged skin cells.

2) Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun. Sunlight and ultraviolet rays can damage the healing skin. After treatment, you should wear looser clothes and try to avoid wearing tights to prevent clothes from rubbing against the healing skin.

3) Do not destroy the scabs or blisters, which may cause scars and allow them to heal naturally. If a large blister appears, use a sterilized lancet to poke a small hole at the bottom of the blister to allow it to drain. Use over-the-counter antibacterial ointments or creams to keep the area moist and accelerate healing.

4) Avoid strenuous exercise within 24 hours after treatment. Strenuous exercise will speed up your blood, and it will be very easy to scratch the healing wound. You need to rest and relax your body.

5) Quit smoking and drinking, and keep your body in optimal health. Alcohol inhibits the ability of the liver and kidneys to expel tattoo ink particles from the body, thereby slowing the healing process. Smoking will deprive the body of oxygen, will slow down the blood flow and metabolism of the skin surface, and will affect the speed of healing.
