A lot of us do things in our youth that we later regret. And, thankfully, we can forget about most of these things. They can be left in the past and never brought up again. However, there are other things that we do in our past that we are reminded of every single day. This is especially the case if a person has a tattoo that they regret. At one point in their life, they wanted to express affiliation with a certain group, were in love with a certain person, or had ideas about something that they wanted to express on their body. Now that they are older, they may regret that tattoo.
For the most part, tattoos have always been something that are viewed as permanent. Once you get a tattoo, you always have it. However, thanks to laser tattoo removal, this is no longer the case. If you would like to leave your ink in the past, laser tattoo removal may be right for you.
Laser tattoo removal has been able to help many individuals who regret getting a tattoo and now would like to see it disappear. And when it comes to laser tattoo removal, the PicoWay® laser is one of the fastest, easiest, and most effective ways to eliminate unwanted tattoos. This method uses advanced new technology that decreases the length of each treatment time, number of treatment sessions needed, and amount of discomfort patients experience before and after treatment.
One of the very first things that you should know about laser tattoo removal is that no matter, what, it takes time; you are not going to come to our office one time and then see the tattoo completely disappear. Multiple sessions are required to obtain dramatic improvements.
Some individuals wonder if getting laser tattoo removal is painful. Because the PicoWay® laser uses quick bursts of high energy laser light, treatment is significantly more comfortable than other laser tattoo removal procedures. After the treatment, you may have a little bit of redness or swelling. The skin may be a little bit sensitive to the touch. However, these side effects usually fade within a few days of receiving treatment.
If you would like to leave your ink in the past, laser tattoo removal may be right for you. Interested in undergoing this treatment near the Baton Rouge or Lafayette areas of Louisiana?
