Laser tattoo removal is the only method proven to remove tattoos without scarring. To remove a tattoo, the laser is pulsed over the tattoo, directing its light energy towards the ink. The energy is absorbed by the ink particles which then shatter into tiny fragments. In the days following the laser procedure, the body’s immune system will flush away the shat- tered ink particles and cause the tattoo to fade. With more treatments, more ink will be shattered leaving the skin free of the tattoo.
