Laser Tattoo Removal
 Lasers work by targeting the tattoo ink with pulses of highly concentrated light that break the ink into tiny fragments, which are then cleared away by the immune system.
Pros of using the laser tattoo removal method:
 1. History of success in significantly removing most of the tattoo (no method guarantees 100%).2. Anesthetic can be applied prior to the use of the laser to minimize the pain (though it willincrease the price of the procedure.).3. Advanced technology has reduced scarring and infection to a minimum.
Cons of using the laser tattoo removal method:
 1. The cost for laser tattoo removal can get pretty high with each session ranging in price from$150 -$850 per session and most tattoos requiring anywhere from 5-20 sessions, depending onthe size, location, application, age and color of the tattoo as well as the health of the patient andthus their body’s ability to heal.2. Depending on the laser used, the more treatments one has the more damage is done to theskin, causing painful blisters and scabs that can eventually lead to scarring.3. Without anesthesia, laser tattoo removal can be quite painful (some describe it as beingsplattered with hot grease or having rubber bands snapped on their skin.).4. Laser tattoo removal can be a very lengthy process as 6-8 weeks is required between eachtattoo removal session.
