Here's what you need to know about tattoo removal.
If you've heard anything about laser tattoo removal, it's probably that it's insanely painful. I mean, if I had a nickel for every time I've heard, "Doesn't that hurt even more than actually getting the tattoos?"It will take months—if not a year or more.
Tattoos don't just go away after a turn with the laser. (I wish) I've had six sessions, and I'd bet I need about five more, even though my initial estimate was six to eight sessions. It takes a long time to complete because every time the tattoo is laser-applied, the body's immune system breaks down and digests the particles. The regeneration period is up to eight weeks, and the next time you go, the laser breaks down the new pigment particles. And so on and so on.
Although these prices can be intimidating, several cosmetic surgeons offer payment plans and other financing options to help patients cover the cost of laser tattoo removal.
Alternative Tattoo Removal Treatments
In addition to laser tattoo removal, there are many other treatment options, including:
- Intense Pulsed Light: IPL™ emits pulses of light onto the skin, removing the tattoo as a laser treatment. This method is said to be more effective and less painful than laser tattoo removal treatment; However,it is also more expensive.
- Surgical Excision: During this procedure, the tattoo is cut off and the skin is sewn back together. This procedure will leave a scar behind.
- Dermabrasion: In this treatment, the skin is sanded away, leaving a scar or pale area.
