Tattoo Removal
Laser tattoo removal is a common method for removing unwanted tattoos. It involves using specialized lasers to break down the ink particles in the skin, allowing the body to gradually eliminate them. Other tattoo removal methods include surgical excision, dermabrasion, and chemical peels, but laser removal is generally preferred due to its effectiveness and reduced risk of scarring.

How it works
Lates laser technology is a relatively new advancement in tattoo removal that offers several benefits compared to traditional lasers.
Latest Laser Technology :
- 1. Ultra-Short Pulses : lasers emit pulses in picoseconds (trillionths of a second), which are much shorter than the nanosecond pulses emitted byother lasers.
- 2. Targeted Energy : The ultra-short pulses create a photomechanical effect that shatters the tattoo ink into smaller particles without heating the surrounding skin as much as traditional lasers. This makes it more effective in breaking down stubborn ink colors and reducing the risk of damage to surrounding tissue.
- 3. Reduced Side Effects : treatment typically results in fewer side effects such as blistering, scarring, and hypopigmentation compared to other lasers, making it a safer option for various skin types.
