Four Steps to Professional Laser Tattoo Removal

Laser tattoo removal is one of many professional services at the Laser Center of Orlando. In fact, clients ready to remove their unwanted tattoos for good can speak to our team about undergoing treatments. Laser tattoo removal targets the ink in the skin to break it down and allow it to fade with time. Let’s look at the four steps needed to achieve results, eliminating the tattoos that might cause embarrassment or hold you back from your dream job!

The four steps to professional laser tattoo removal:

Consultation appointment

Before our team at Laser Center of Orlando can perform this treatment, a consultation visit with our providers is the first step in deciding if this treatment is appropriate for your unique and specific needs. During this visit, we will evaluate your tattoo and skin type, discuss potential risks or side effects, and determine the appropriate treatment plan.

Pre-treatment preparation

Once you have decided to proceed with laser tattoo removal, there are a few things you can do to prepare for your first treatment session. It is important that clients avoid tanning or sun exposure on the area being treated before each session, as well as certain medications or supplements that may increase sensitivity to light. Our providers will give you specific instructions during your consultation appointment.

Laser treatment sessions

The actual laser tattoo removal process involves using high-intensity light energy to target the pigment of the ink in your tattoo. This breaks up the tattoo ink particles into smaller pieces that the body’s immune system can naturally remove. The number of sessions needed for complete removal varies depending on factors such as tattoo size and location, ink colors, and individual skin response. Our team will work with you to create a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Post-treatment care

After each laser tattoo removal session, it is vital that you follow the proper aftercare instructions provided to promote healing and prevent infection or adverse reactions. This might include keeping the treated area clean and dry, avoiding sun exposure or harsh chemicals, and applying any recommended ointments or creams. Attending all scheduled follow-up appointments is important so our providers can monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
