Which laser for which colors in tattoo removal? (photos)

In my opinion Picoway is the best treatment plan for all tattoo colors. Have a personal consultation with a practice highly specialized in lasers so that you receive the most appropriate treatment without major side effects.  There is little discomfort, no recovery time and little no blistering.  I hope this helps.  Best

Hi BH.  The bottom line is it's likely you will need both the q-switched Nd:yg laser for red and black as well as the dark blue.  The q-switched Alexandrite will work better for green and lighter blue.  The Orange and yellow are difficult to remove and a newer method involves fractional laser resurfacing.  Best bet would be to find an office that has all three options as you may need them.  

There are a multitude of ink colors in your tattoo and this may require the application of more than one laser. For tattoos, dark colors (blue, black, brown) on fair skin tend to respond best. Pastel colors and amateur tattoos may be harder to treat and may never fully clear. Picosure is effective in clearing green and blue pigment - to date.Other picosecond lasers (PicoWay) is good for red tattoos.Enlighten is a picosecond laser with a dual wavelength (532 nm and 1064 nm) and operates at dual pulse durations (picsecond and nanosecond). The 532 nm Q switched Nd YAG is best for red ink.
