What is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Laser tattoo removal is a non-surgical procedure that uses high-intensity light pulses to target and break down tattoo ink particles. Different ink colors absorb different wavelengths of light. The laser energy causes the ink to fragment into tiny particles, which are then removed by the body's lymphatic system over several weeks. Multiple sessions are required for complete or significant fading. The laser selectively targets the tattoo pigment without damaging the surrounding skin. Black and dark blue inks respond best; yellow, green, and fluorescent inks are more challenging.

Consultation & Assessment
Dr. Reema Kataria evaluates your tattoo — ink colors, depth, age, and skin type. She discusses expected results and number of sessions needed.
Preparation
The treatment area is cleaned. Topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort (30-45 minutes).
Laser Application
The Q-switch or picosecond laser is passed over the tattoo. Each pulse delivers high-energy light that shatters ink particles. You may feel a snapping sensation (like a rubber band against skin).
Post-Care
Antibiotic ointment and sterile bandage are applied. Avoid sun exposure for 4-6 weeks.
Results & Safety
Tattoo fading is progressive over 6-12 sessions, depending on ink color, depth, and age. Black and dark blue inks respond best (80-95% clearance). Yellow, green, and fluorescent inks may only fade partially (30-50%). Amateur tattoos often require fewer sessions than professional tattoos. Visible fading appears after 2-3 sessions, with significant clearance after 6-10 sessions. Complete removal is possible for most black or dark tattoos, though some residual shadowing may remain. Laser tattoo removal is safe when performed by experienced professionals.

Mild redness, swelling, blistering, or crusting may occur for 3-7 days post-treatment. Risk of scarring or pigmentation changes is low with proper technique and aftercare.
