Tattoos have become increasingly popular, but their
downsides have not changed much. They can still cause problems in professional
environments and (especially if they pertain to earlier loved ones) personal relationships
as well. Anyone seeking laser
tattoo removal in Palm Springs will be glad to learn that there is a
simple, effective way around the usual permanence of tattoos.
Lasers work to remove tattoos by producing short bursts of
intense light. This light moves harmlessly through the top layers of the skin
until the tattoo pigment absorbs it. The energy from the laser fragments the
tattoo pigment into smaller particles, which the body’s immune system then
removes. The laser does all this without damaging the surrounding skin!
Prospective Palm Springs
laser tattoo removal patients are advised that multiple treatments are often
required in order to remove a tattoo entirely. The number of treatments depends
on how much ink was originally used, and how deeply into the skin it was
injected. Experienced doctors recommend waiting three to six weeks between each
treatment, to allow the body to do its part of removing the pigment.
Fortunately, each session takes only a few minutes.
