Areas of Treatment
Laser tattoo removal can be used anywhere on the body and is versatile enough to target all types of tattoos, from smaller, simpler tattoos to those that are larger and more complex.
Treatment Length
The duration of each session typically ranges from five to 30 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of the tattoo. Multiple sessions are usually required for complete removal.
Recovery Time
Laser tattoo removal has minimal downtime. Most patients resume daily activities immediately after treatment. Redness and swelling that occurs should subside within a few days.
Frequency of Maintenance
The number of treatments needed for optimal results varies based on the tattoo’s age, size, color, and depth of ink, as well as the individual’s skin type. Sessions are typically scheduled at least six to eight weeks apart to allow the immune system to flush out the fragmented pigment.
Laser Tattoo Removal With Lutronic
Lutronic’s Q-Switched Laser is the industry standard for effective tattoo removal. It works by delivering rapid, ultra-short pulses of laser energy into the skin to target unwanted ink and break it down into tiny fragments, allowing it to be naturally flushed out by the body.
Thermal & Acoustic Effects
Thermal and acoustics effects are key components of the tattoo removal process. When the laser energy is directed at the tattooed area, it creates a rapid expansion of the ink particles due to intense localized heat. This expansion results in a shockwave effect, which helps further break down the ink into minuscule fragments, enhancing the overall effectiveness of treatment.
Q-Switched Laser Technology
Q-Switched lasers are designed to emit energy in extremely short pulses, producing a high-intensity beam that targets tattoo ink while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues. This precise technology is particularly effective in removing darker inks and is versatile enough for varying ink colors and depths, ensuring optimal results for all tattoo types.
Multiple Wavelength Capability
The Hollywood Spectra laser can be adjusted to target every ink color. Pigments absorb light differently, and having the ability to switch between shorter or longer wavelengths allows for the effective removal of multi-colored tattoos. 1064 nm wavelengths are great for targeting black and dark blue inks, while 532 nm is more suitable for shades of red, orange and yellow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Laser tattoo removal is a nonsurgical procedure that uses light-based energy to break down the ink particles in your tattoo. The laser targets the pigment in your tattoo, causing the ink to fragment into minuscule particles that are naturally eliminated by the body. This process is extremely effective and can significantly fade or completely remove unwanted tattoos.
Is Laser Tattoo Removal Safe for All Skin Tones?
Yes, laser tattoo removal is safe for all skin tones. However, the effectiveness and approach used may vary from person to person. Modern laser technologies are designed to minimize the risk of discoloration and are effective for both light and dark skin tones. Our experienced technicians adjust the laser settings to ensure a safe and effective treatment.
How Many Treatment Sessions Will I Need?
The number of sessions required to remove unwanted ink will vary depending on several factors, including the size and age of your tattoo, the colors and type of ink used, the depth of the ink in the skin, and your body’s response to the treatment. Typically, patients need anywhere from five to 10 sessions spaced at least six weeks apart for optimal results. During your consultation, our team will provide an estimate based on an assessment of your tattoo.
Is Laser Tattoo Removal Painful?
Laser tattoo removal is often described as somewhat uncomfortable, but treatment is generally well-tolerated, with most patients comparing it to a rubber band snapping against the skin. We offer a topical anesthetic and use cooling technology to enhance your comfort. Most people find these measures significantly reduce pain during treatment sessions.
