Tattoos are often a form of self-expression, a way to mark a significant moment, or simply an artistic choice. However, as life evolves, so do our tastes and circumstances. That once-cherished tattoo might become a source of regret. The good news? Dermis Advanced Skin Care offers effective laser tattoo removal to help you reclaim your skin.

Why Consider Laser Tattoo Removal?

There are numerous reasons why someone might consider tattoo removal:

  • Career Changes: A visible tattoo might not align with a new professional environment.
  • Lifestyle Shifts: Changes in personal style or beliefs can make a tattoo feel out of place.
  • Fading or Blurring: Tattoos can lose their vibrancy and definition over time.
  • Poor Application: Sometimes, a tattoo simply doesn’t turn out as expected.
  • Personal Reasons: The memory associated with the tattoo might become painful or unwanted.

How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?

Laser tattoo removal is a safe and effective method for breaking down tattoo ink. Here’s a simplified explanation:

  1. Targeted Energy: A specialized laser emits pulses of intense light energy.
  2. Ink Absorption: The tattoo ink particles absorb this light energy.
  3. Fragmentation: The ink particles shatter into smaller fragments.
  4. Natural Elimination: The body’s immune system then naturally eliminates these smaller ink particles over time.

Our Advanced Technology: Lutronic SPECTRA™

At Dermis Advanced Skin Care, we utilize the Lutronic’s Dual Mode, Q-switched Nd:YAG SPECTRA™ laser, a gold standard in tattoo removal technology. This advanced system offers several key advantages:

  • Multiple Wavelengths: The SPECTRA™ laser has 4 distinct wavelengths, allowing us to target a wide spectrum of tattoo ink colors effectively.
  • Efficient Targeting: Its combination of high-peak power and short pulse width ensures efficient targeting of pigment with minimal damage to the surrounding skin.
  • Faster Removal: The SPECTRA™ laser often removes tattoos quicker than previous laser solutions.
  • Enhanced Comfort: The technology is designed to minimize discomfort during the procedure.

What to Expect During the Tattoo Removal Process:

  • Consultation: A thorough consultation with one of our skin care specialists is essential. We’ll assess your tattoo, discuss your expectations, and determine the best treatment plan.
  • Number of Sessions: The number of sessions required varies depending on factors like:
    • Tattoo size and color
    • Ink type and density
    • Location of the tattoo
    • Your skin type
  • Discomfort: Patients often describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snap. We can utilize numbing cream to minimize discomfort.
