Features & Cause about Worries
Lasers remove tattoos by emitting short pulses of intense light that are selectively absorbed by the tattoo pigment. Each tattoo pigment, such as black, blue, red, and others, absorbs a specific wavelength of light. This laser light energy causes the tattoo pigment to fragment into tiny particles which are then removed by the body's own immune system.
