The Latest Technologies For Laser Tattoo Removal
Sugar Land Laser Tattoo Removal specializes in safe, effective and complete tattoo removal using the latest laser technologies. Our lasers are specifically designed to remove every tattoo, regardless of ink color or age. Using laser tattoo removal technologies, a tattoo can most often be removed with no scarring.
Tattoos have become rather popular in the last few years. Compared to other methods of tattoo removal, lasers work best.
How does laser tattoo removal work?
Pulses of light from one of our lasers are used for a short amount of time on the area of the tattoo. The lasers create specific wavelengths of light that are designed to break up the various colors of ink in a tattoo. The resulting smaller particles of ink are then removed by the body's own immune system in the deeper layer of skin.
Most often several treatments are needed. Each treatment only takes a few minutes to less than half on hour, depending on the size of the tattoo and these treatment sessions are spaced 4 or more weeks apart.
While ink evidence may remain, it should be in only limited amounts. The skin requires healing time to repair itself after each treatment session, but the laser leaves little to no scarring. Sometimes hyperpigmentation (darkening) or hypopigmentation (lightening) of the skin may occur.
At Sugar Land Laser Tattoo Removal we use Astanza Trinity Laser technology which produces three lasers from one device allowing all colors to be completly removed.
Reasons for removing a tattoo.
There are multiple reasons why people consider removing a tattoo. They are often acquired in adolescence or early adulthood, sometimes because of teenage rebellion or a desired lifestyle. For former gang members, removing tattoos allows them a new lifestyle. Tattoos are often removed due to work related or professional reasons. Later in life some people see such tattoos as less desireable and more a hinderance to their well being.
Does laser tattoo removal hurt?
Tattoo removal with a laser does not hurt as much as getting the it in the first place did. The time of treatments are very short, often lasting only minutes, and most people explain the pain as similar to being slapped with a rubber band. The few days after each treatment the skin may be painful. It often reddens or swells and possibly blisters and scabs similar to a bad sunburn. Proper aftercare of the area is important to limit any scarring and optimize healing time.
How much does laser tattoo removal cost?
Cost tends to be more expensive than getting a tattoo. Laser removal cost will go up depending on how many treatments are needed to remove a tattoo and how much time is needed for each treatment. Thus, the larger and more complex a tattoo is, the more expensive it will be to be removed. The tattoo removal cost will vary, but it often is several hundred to possibly a thousand dollars for proper laser tattoo removal. Up-to-date laser removal clinics produce better results and often take fewer sessions to remove the tattoo. Our tattoo removal cost is very affordable, too.
