I have two tattoos I want to get rid of, but the red lips on my butt are more of a priority right now. I have read so many different things on line about the different lasers to use and wanted to get a more reputable answer. I got my matching tattoo with my best friend 5 years ago and have wanted it gone for 4. The one on my back has been there a little longer than the butt and it was done terribly and has faded a lot.
Answer: Tattoo Removal Thank you for your question in regards to tattoo removal. The wavelength that works best on red ink is a 532nm. Several factors will determine the amount of treatments needed. 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: Yes, you can have this tattoo removed with laser tattoo removal Thank you for your question. Yes, you can have this tattoo removed with laser tattoo removal. In my office I use the PicoSure laser. PicoSure has a short pulse duration that exceeds photothermal action and results in an intense photomechanical impact. This adds up to faster results and fewer treatments when compared to other tattoo removal methods. It works best on darker inks such as black and blue. The number of sessions required to lighten or remove a tattoo can range from 6-10 sessions. The amount of sessions depends on the size, color and placement of the tattoo. The further the tattoo is from the heart the more time it will take to remove. I recommend having a consultation with an expert to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!

Answer: PicoWay Removes Red Ink and Other Colors The PicoWay laser can be used to remove both of your tattoos. Black ink is the easiest to remove, but it works very well on red ink as well as other colors. It will take several treatments – at least five or six, possibly up to eight – to remove either tattoo. Please be sure to use a board-certified dermatologist who is an expert in tattoo removal.

Answer: Red Tattoo Ink Pico lasers are the most advanced technology. I utilize the PiQo4 laser which has 4 Pico wavelengths including the 532 wavelength ideal for red ink. With this advanced technology the average number of treatments is 4-6. However the number of treatments can vary based on several factors such as the location of your tattoo, your skin tone, how sharp the ink is, and how quickly your body eliminates the ink. Even with advanced lasers and multiple wavelengths complete removal is not always possible. I believe that tattoos are removed faster and safer with Pico lasers and there is less risk of scarring. I think it is important not only to seek the best technology but an experienced laser tattoo removal provider.
