I am worried about scar's too.Can it be removed completely without scar?if yes,then in how many sittings and which laser is best for me. Thanks
Answer: Tattoo removal treatment planning The tattoo on your forearm is clearly professionally done. This means it has a high ink particle density, and the particles are likely to be fairly deep. Given its location your treatments should be spaced out about 8 weeks apart. You might be able to clear this in 8 sessions if the laser systems used have excellent peak power and your provider is experienced in their use. "No scar" can never be guaranteed but with an experienced provider who doesn't go too high too quickly on the settings, and with meticulous wound care and use of a topical scar gel you could achieve complete removal with low risk of scar formation.

Answer: Tattoo Removal Thank you for your question in regards to tattoo removal. No scarring is ever guaranteed with tattoo removal. Everyone can respond different to the lasers used. Aside from seeing an experienced technician, the type of ink, the amount of ink and depth, along with proper post care are all important factors to consider to achieve the best result. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Tattoo Removal -- Pico/Q Switched Laser Tattoos should be removed with q switched or pico lasers, we will often combine with fractional lasers to help speed the process. No matter the device it will take several treatments to see the outcome depending on your response and the technology. Please see a laser expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Tattoo Removal Yes, your tattoo can be removed but you will need to wait about 4-6 months before the treatments can begin. The best and latest treatment is the Picosure laser. It can remove most all colors especially black ink. This Picosure can remove the tattoo completely without scaring. It usually takes between 5-10 session about 6-8 weeks apart. Find a Doctor with a Picosure Laser to have a consultation.
