Getting That Tattoo Removal Treatment

By Jeffrey Watson


Tattoos are a form of art and expression. It has been practiced since ancient times but was banned during the Roman Empire because it is a brand for slaves and criminals. It, however, resurfaced due to soldiers who have it inked on their bodies. It gained popularity once more and gave rise to its own band of artists. When people do not want it anymore or want a new design on that same area, they go to a shop to get tattoo removal Worcester MA.

Before the procedure, artists will have their patients do pretreatment car first. This makes sure that results will be favorable and optimal to them. They are handed guidelines on the things they should do to better prepare for the treatment.

Patients are recommended to take care of their bodies. They should instill a healthy diet and regular in their lifestyle. They are also not allowed to drink alcohol at this time. The sole reason is that the body heals and helps with the after care.

Artists will suggest rescheduling the appointment if their patient has undergone medical procedure or is on medication currently.

It is really important for them to have their body and immune system at optimal health to combat the said infection.

Artists need to know several factors before the treatment. Skin tone, location, ink and age are these factors they have to take notes of. Age pertains to the person and the tattoo. Older patients require longer time to have their inks to be removed. In terms of tattoo, older ink is easier to get rid of than recent ones.

Meanwhile, the tone of their skin matters because of the amount of melanin present there. It is because lighter complexions can absorb the effects of laser faster. This means faster treatment in removing the tattoos on the body.

Remember that the body flushes the remaining broken ink. If the tattoo is located at areas with good blood circulation like arms and neck, then it will take lesser time for it to be flushed away. The same cannot be said with those located in parts with less circulation like ankles.

Sizes and colors vary in the tattoo of a person. Dispersed, small and shallow tattoos are easier to treat. Bigger ones however are to be divided into areas for the body to be able to flush that amount of ink. Blackout tattoos on patients will have more sessions than average because of its complexity and difficulty.

Patient undergoes multiple sessions with laser treatment. Its effects will then be absorbed on the skin that will break the ink into smaller pieces with its quick energy pulse.

Sessions are in between a few weeks because artists wait for the body and immune system to heal the treated area.
