Unwanted dark and multi-colored tattoos can be safely and effectively eliminated with Alma laser tattoo removal treatments.
Successful multi-color tattoo removal requires a high powered laser that can deliver enough energy within the absorption spectrum of a wide range of colors. The high-power Q-switched Nd: YAG 1064 nm laser is ideal for treating darker ink colors (black, blue, and green), while the 532 nm wavelength is effective for brighter ink colors (red, orange, and yellow). The mechanical Q-Switched effect works by vibrating and breaking down the ink particles in the tattoo. As the area heals, the body’s immune system flushes away the shattered ink particles, causing the tattoo to fade with minimal risk of scarring or hypopigmentation.
If you’re planning to undergo a TR Treatment you should know that it depends on the size, age, and location of the tattoo. Some large tattoos are so big they can’t be covered in one session, thus requiring more appointments. Also, older tattoos are harder to remove as over time the pigment goes deeper within the skin. Keep in mind intervals of 6-8 weeks between sessions are mandatory therefore an 8 session process can take a little bit over a year.
