Tattoo Removal
- Tattoos are created by the introduction of exogenous pigment into the dermal skin layer and can be placed with intent, or be the result of accidents and trauma.
- Tattoos can broadly be divided into professional, amateur, cosmetic, traumatic, or medical tattoos.
Lasers -
- Quality-switched (QS) lasers have long been the traditional workhorse for the removal of tattoos. The laser treatment of tattoos is based on the concept of selective photothermolysis, where laser light of different wavelengths is preferentially absorbed by different chromophores.
- The desired endpoint of QS laser treatment (Nd:YAG, alexandrite, and ruby) is immediate tissue whitening, although this may not occur if the tattoo has faded significantly.
