When opting for a method to remove tattoos we must bear in mind several factors. Removing a tattoo is not an easy task. Contrary to what you may think, the easiest colors to remove by laser (leaving aside the surgical methods) are black and other dark tones. On the contrary, the red, green and purple colors cost a lot to remove without leaving a trace or some kind of mark where we used to wear a tattoo.
The laser is the most widespread method of removing tattoos but depending on our skin color and the shades that the tattoo presents, we will need a greater or lesser number of sessions. And worst of all, removing a tattoo is much more painful than getting one. It is a more difficult pain to bear but one that we will have to face if we have made a bad decision.
Due to the boom that tattoo removal services are having (I would dare say that in the same way that the art of tattooing is spreading), there are those who continue to investigate new methods to remove tattoos. One of those on the first floor is called Q Switched, a type of laser that could revolutionize tattoo removal.
How does the Q-Switched laser work? It can erase the pigments of tattoo ink that are more difficult to remove by conventional lasers that are used today. Unlike other methods, Q-Switched does not "erase" the tattoo, but rather its function is to break down the pigments into particles that will later be completely eliminated by the lymphatic system.
Although new technologies appear over the years that allow us to remove those tattoos from the skin, we do not like them, we must bear in mind that a tattoo is always something "for life", so you must think about it two (and three times) before going to a tattoo studio.
