Tattoo with Blue and Black Ink

The black will respond faster and more predictably than the light blue. For black, I like to start with Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm). For light blue, I typically use Q-switched alexandrite laser (755 nm) or Q-switched 585 nm laser.

You should see progressive fading of the tattoo after each treatment... more

Laser Tattoo Removal of Varying Colors

Tattoo pigments generally respond differently for a variety of reasons. First of all, the rate at which a laser can clear the tattoo varies with how deep the ink was placed, the quality of the ink itself, and how much of it was used. Laser settings also vary with physician, so it's important to find one who is experienced in removing tattoos.

However, in some cases, the light colored ink oxidizes and darkens after the first treatment. If that happens, do not worry, the next treatment will start to remove the darker ink just like the surrounding black border. The black border actually fades... more

Tattoo with various ink colors

Yes. Both blue and black ink is able to be treated. Not everyone out there has the proper technology for all ink colors. Do your homework. Ask many questions about which lasers they have for which colors. The Alex trivantage is an excellent laser to use which covers a majority of primary colors

Yes, blue and black ink usually respond well to laser tattoo removal.

The black ink will usually respond to Q-Switched 1064nm laser. The blues will usually respond to 1064nm, 755nm or 694nm Q-switched laser treatment. It is important to see an experienced tattoo removal specialist who has all wavelengths of Q-switched laser available for the best results. The light blue will probably be best treated with Q-swtiched Ruby laser at 694nm.
