Can IPL Be Used to Remove a Tattoo?
I have heard that the best treatment for removing a tattoo is a Q-Switched YAG laser. However, when I do a search online, there are a huge number of references to using an IPL device to remove a tattoo. I have seen some tattoos that were accidentally "treated" during IPL treatment for permanent hair reduction, and indeed the portion of the tattoo that was "treated" in this way seems much lighter. Can IPL be safely used to try to remove a Tattoo?
