For those who don't know, the laser, when used to remove tattoos, is responsible for "breaking" the pigment colors with a high-intensity beam of light.
It is important that the professional test, before actually starting, the possible reactions of the skin to the laser, as this way it is easier to determine the most effective energy in the treatment. The intensity even depends on several factors such as age, size and color of the tattoo.
After all, does laser tattoo removal hurt?
For the vast majority of people, the answer is yes. Many professionals apply anesthetic creams to relieve pain on site.
In addition, it is important to use an ice pack to soothe the treated area and apply antibiotic cream or ointment to protect the area.
This type of removal is one of the safest methods. As an example, we can mention excision, desmoabrasion or salabrasion.
Removal results
The client needs to understand that the site where the removal will take place may end up with an infection or simply a permanent scar.
Also, there will be the possibility of not being able to remove it completely. Blue and black drawings, for example, respond better to treatment.
One of the biggest risks is hypopigmentation, that is, when the region becomes paler than the surrounding skin. However, the opposite can also happen, hyperpigmentation, where the affected area becomes darker than the rest of the skin.
What is the average amount charged?
It is worth mentioning that looking for a reliable plastic surgeon is essential, given the risk of the procedure. Thus, it is not interesting to try to save at this time.
According to the Brazilian Society of Dermatology, the cost of tattoo removal ranges from R$1,500.00 to R$1,800.00 per session.
