Tattoo Removal

YAG lasers can treat 90 – 95% of tattoos, since red and black are the most popular tattoo ink colours. YAG wavelengths are safe on all skin types and allow for the most efficacious tattoo laser removal procedures available.

YAG laser for tattoo removal is considered very versatile since 1064 nm is effective for dark pigments such as black and blue while using the KTP 532 nm red, orange, and yellow dyes are more prompt to respond.

As with any procedure, there are potential risks associated with tattoo removal procedures, which could include:

Scarring.
Infections.
Skin discoloration.
Skin irritation or a rash.
Pain or discomfort.

Contraindications:

Diabetes (insulin-dependent)
Hemophilia.
AIDS.
Hepatitis B or C.
Eczema.
Epilepsy.
Allergy to tattoo products (inks, pigments, etc.)
Keloid scars.
