Types of Tattoos -

• Amateur tattoos - An amateur tattoo is normally formed using a single colour (India ink) such as black , brown and blue. They can be applied by someone using a needle and a bottle of India ink at home without under guidance of any professional tattoo artist. It is applied at varying depths and sits close to the top layer of the skin.
• Professional tattoos - A professional tattoo is usually comprised multi colours and formed using a machine and maple ink. They use much stronger inks as compared to amateur tattoos. Colours in professional tattoos applied evenly to the layer beneath the skin that called as dermis. These tattoos are created by trained and professional tattoo artist at salon or tattoo parlour.
• Cosmetic tattoos - Cosmetic tattoos are also known as permanent make-up. It involves the application of pigments into the skin which results in soft shades which imitate cosmetics(make-up). For example eyebrows, eyeliner and lip liner which are tattooed into the skin. It is an everlasting form of make up that removes the need to apply any kind of cosmetics on a daily basis. 
• Traumatic tattoos - Traumatic tattoos which are also known as natural tattoos occur due to an accident or trauma such as accident stab wound from a pen or pencil or grazes following a road accident.

HOW DOES THIS LASER WORK ?

Laser emits the energy that causes the tattoo particles to heat up and break down these tattoo particles into tiny fragments. Then within a period of 8-12 weeks, the scavenger cells of body ‘mop up’ these tiny fragments causes the tattoo to gradually fade over the time. Amateur tattoos generally responds more quickly to the procedure as compared to professional tattoos. Professional tattoos are more difficult to remove completely from the skin because the ink tends to be deeper in the skin. Bright colours which are being used for profesiional tattos are difficult to remove as they do not absorb the energy. They usually take longer time to break down and need more treatments to completely remove the tattoo than black, blue and red colours in amateur tattoos.

Correct assessment of your tattoo including its colour, depth and location, along with correctly assessing your skin type. Skin Type is an important to consider because while most tattoos can be treated in 3-6 treatments, and some tattoos may require more or less treatments such as:

• Some colours, such as red, orange and yellow, will require additional treatments.
• Tattoos where the ink is deeply set within the skin will also require additional treatments.
• Amateur tattoos will often require less treatments than professional tattoos
• Tattoos located in areas with poor blood flow may also require more treatments.

PREPARATION FOR LASER TATTOO REMOVAL

• Do not have any laser, Microhydrabrasion or other skin treatments in the area for minimum 2 weeks prior to your laser tattoo removal treatment.

What will laser tattoo removal feel like?

Most people feel some pain during the treatment, which they describe as being like ‘a warm elastic band hitting your skin’. They will feel discomfort immediatly after the procedure because the treated area will be red, slightly elevated and the skin will have a frosted appearance but these side effects will settle down quickly. There may also be some minor bleeding from the area, but this will heal by own and there should be no further problems. Patients need between 4 to 12 treatment sessions to remove an unwanted tattoo and for the good results approximately 4-6 weeks apart.

POST TREATMENT CARE

• A dressing may be applied to the treatment area to prevent the area from rubbing on clothing; this dressing should be removed the night of your treatment.
• It is recommended to wear loose clothing the day of your appointment and during the healing process.
• Doctor prescribed ointment must be applied for a minimum of 7 days post laser treatment .
• SPF must be applied to all treatment areas and sun exposure must be avoided at all times while undergoing treatments.
• Avoid excessive physical activity, hot showers, pools, spas and saunas for up to 72 hours post treatment.
• Icing the area for a minimum of 10mins every 30-40mins for the remainder of the day after your treatment will reduce the risk of blistering post treatment. Should a blister occur do not break the skin and allow it to heal naturally, any interference with the healing process can lead to scaring.
• To reduce this risk it is important that you do not pick, scratch or aggravate the area as removing a scab or blister can increase your risk of developing a scar. 

Laser treatment helps slowly break down tattoo ink while keeping the process safe and accurate. When a tattoo no longer feels right, advanced laser procedures gives a safe removal option or alternative. Choosing and selecting a trusted and reputed clinic in Delhi makes sure about careful assessment and expert accurate supervision, improving overall results.

Since tattoo pigment sits deep within the skin, making removal a more detailed process. This treatment works by sending controlled pulses of energy into the skin. Once the ink is broken down, the body’s immune system helps remove it . Because each ink colour reacts differently to the laser, some tattoos require more sessions than others.This is why a personalised evaluation and examination is important before starting treatment in Delhi.

Different types of tattoos react differently to laser removal, depending on the pigment colour and how deeply it is placed. Dark colour or pigments like black and blue usually respond more quickly to treatment, while lighter colours may need more sessions. The treatment planning depends not only on the ink but also on where the tattoo is placed and the individual’s skin type. Proper evaluation and examination by experienced and qualified doctors in Delhi helps plan safe and achievable tattoo removal.

Laser tattoo removal is carried out in a clinical setting and patients can go home the same day. Most patients describe the feeling as tolerable, similar to a quick snap on the skin.
