Tattoo removal

The history of skin tattooing is as old as humanity. Tattooing is known in all parts of the planet and in all historical eras. Tattooing is a process of mechanical pigment insertion into the third layer of the skin – the dermis. In time, due to a change in attitudes or other social reasons there comes a decision to permanently remove the tattoo.

It is possible to remove a tattoo in several ways. Depending on the localisation, size and depth of the pigment, various ways of removing a tattoo are possible. Until modern lasers appeared, there was no adequate treatment.

To remove tattoos, various lasers have been used, erbium, CO2 laser, argon laser. The mode of operation was to destroy the pigment mechanically, however there was also damage on the surrounding tissue. The results were weak and skin damage was severe.

Only when the technology advanced and when alexandrite, ruby and Nd:YAG lasers were used was it possible to achieve the desired results. These lasers affect only the pigment since they have a short impulse. There is no damage to the surrounding tissue, or any bleeding.
