Tattoo Removal: Erase the Past, Welcome the Future
Tattoos are a great way to express yourself, but sometimes they no longer reflect who you are. You might want to remove a tattoo because it no longer suits you or a name that no longer holds meaning. Gladly! Modern techniques in dermatology offer effective methods for removing unwanted tattoos.
Dr. Shikhar Chaube at Eliixir Skin and Hair Clinic specializes in tattoo removal services. He ensures that your skin will be clear, soft, and free of any trace of the tattoo. Don’t let an old tattoo hold you back and embrace a fresh start!
The Process of Removing a Tattoo
The procedure of getting a tattoo results in the ink being stored in the dermal layer of the skin to a noticeable depth. The ink particles are much larger than the body’s immune system can break down. Thus, the tattoo is permanent. But what if you would like to erase that ink? This is possible with the procedure of tattoo removal with a laser.
Removal of tattoos using a laser is effective with a variety of ink colors. However, some colors may respond better than others. Darker colors as black and dark blue, are easier to remove than yellows, greens, and reds. Nonetheless, advancements in laser technologies like the use of Q-switched lasers have made it possible to get better results on a wider variety of ink colors.
Why Use a Laser to Remove Tattoos?
Tattoo removal using a laser is considered to be the most effective of all. The procedure is the least invasive method, resulting in less scarring compared to dermabrasion or surgical excision.
Advanced equipment at Eliixir Skin and Hair Clinic enables Dr. Shikhar Chaube to utilize new laser therapies, customizing and delivering them to each patient with precision and accuracy. At the clinic, lasers of various types, including picosecond and Q-switched, are available for the treatment of tattoos of different sizes and colors.
What to expect during your sessions for tattoo removal
If you’re new to laser treatment for tattoo removal, then you may have questions. Here is what you should expect while at Eliixir Skin and Hair Clinic:
- Consultation: The first step is to see Dr. Shikhar Chaube for a detailed consultation. He will examine your tattoo, discuss your goals, and establish how many sessions will be necessary. Your age, size, tattoo color, and skin type could impact a treatment plan.
- Laser Sessions: Each tattoo is removed using a specific laser that targets one color at a time. During the procedure, the patient experiences sensations like a quick snapping or a rubber band hitting the skin, which can be uncomfortable but tolerable and manageable with the available numbing cream.Â
- Aftercare: Following step-by-step aftercare instructions promotes better healing and results. After each removal session, he will receive guidance on necessary aftercare, including applying ointments, avoiding sun exposure, and keeping the tattoo area moisturized and clean.
- Multiple Sessions: Complete removal of tattoos takes time, so several sessions are typically needed. The number of sessions depends on factors like how deep the ink has penetrated the skin and the shade’s intensity, among others. On average, most people undergo about 6-10 treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart, which are standard recovery periods for each patient.
What Does Tattoo Removal Cost?
Those who are considering tattoo laser treatment should take the cost into account. Laser tattoo removal cost may depend on the size and complexity of the image or lettering, the number of visits required, and the type of laser used.
There are no hidden charges as Dr. Shikhar Chaube offers transparent pricing at Eliixir Skin and Hair Clinic. The details discussed during your consultation will provide you with specific information on the cost of removing the tattoos from your body. However, the initial cost may appear high; this should not worry you since any investment that leaves your skin looking its best is worth sacrificing for safety’s sake.
Are There Side Effects?
Laser tattoo removal is no different from other types of cosmetic procedures in terms of side effects. The most common ones include minor blistering, reddening, or swelling, which are temporary. Usually, they are not severe and subside within several days.
For any treatments offered at Eliixir Skin and Hair Clinic by Dr. Shikhar Chaube, great caution is taken to minimize the risks involved. He usually discusses potential tattoo removal side effects before starting the process to help with their control measures, despite these being rare occurrences.
