How Laser tattoo removal works

Laser tattoo removal is a fun thing I'll explain in full how it works in a moment, but first I'm going to need to explain how tattoos work.

Tattoos are hardly the only things that get lodged in your skin; you would really be surprised just how much your skin has to deal with on a daily basis. Fortunately for you your skin is quite effective at dealing with the foreign bodies that get lodged in it on a daily basis.

Then tattoos come along.

Tattoo inks are simply too big to be removed; the skin can try to remove them as much as it likes, but it's like trying to force a camel through the eye of a needle; those inks aren't going anywhere.

Then laser Tattoo removal comes along.

Now if you want me to go into the technical detail about how the Q-switching on lasers work then you are going to be disappointed; there is no way I'm a skilful enough engineer to explain that properly; for now I'm just going to need you to accept that lasers are magical pieces of equipment that pack enough of a punch to sunburn your pancreas.

Remember how I said that Tattoo ink is made from particles that are too big for the body's natural processes to remove. Well the laser puts at stop to all that nonsense.

Let me walk you through laser tattoo removal step by step.

Step One: Phenomenal amounts of energy are pulsed into your soft flesh.
Step Two: Since the tattoo inks are darker than the flesh around them they absorb a lot more heat.
Step Three: The tattoos shatter into lots of little pieces. From heat.

I'm probably making laser tattoo removal sound more dangerous than it actually is. Don't worry; the Q-switching I mentioned earlier is designed to keep the laser duration on the order of nanoseconds; not nearly enough to cause any damage. You probably won’t feel anything other than a little hot slap; like being flicked with a rubber band.

That is basically how laser tattoo removal works; I hope I've been some help.
