How Does Tattoo Removal Work?

How can something permanent be removed? After some time, tattoos begin to fade. Your body’s immune system recognizes tattoo ink as a foreign substance and attempts to remove it. This phenomenon is the basis for laser tattoo removal. 

At LifeGaines Med Spa in Boca Raton, we use the PiQo4 laser for tattoo removal. Using high-energy light beams, the laser breaks up pigment deposits beneath the skin. This technology makes use of both Nanosecond and Picosecond pulses. With nanosecond pulses, pigment and ink particles are broken down by delivering short bursts of energy.

The area is rescanned using Picosecond pulses, which dismantle the smaller, shallower particles. When these bursts of light cause the tattoo ink to break down, the body can harmlessly absorb the pigment.  Each pigment color absorbs a specific wavelength.

Our LifeGaines Boca Raton tattoo removal laser uses four wavelengths to remove tattoos of a wide variety of pigment colors. However, it is important to note that Laser tattoo removal cannot remove not all colors.  

Some people won’t respond as well to the treatment and be left with fragments of tattoo ink in the skin, but this may be enough for you if you’re desperate to remove your tattoo or planning to tattoo over the area – just make sure you won’t regret it again!

A laser tattoo removal procedure uses pulses of light energy to speed up the natural removal process by penetrating the skin and removing the tattoo ink.
