Well it's been over a year since I got the tattoo, it was done by a amature and the ink color is red and it's on my neck. What I want to know is if red ink is easy to remove, is it possible to remove the tattoo, a price range to where it could cost and at least a guess on how many sessions will it take to remove. Thank you
Answer: Red kiss tattoo Hi there. This "kiss" tattoo seems to be very popular. In our clinic we have removed at least a half dozen of these. Our experience with red ink is that it comes out fairly easily. If it is pure red ink, a Q-switched laser that has a 532nm setting will work fine. You can expect 4-6 treatments. Sometimes, the red pigment is not pure and tends to darken over several treatments. The most important thing is to choose a provider carefully. Ask them to show you before and after pictures of successfully removed red tattoos.

Answer: Laser Tattoo Removal Facts -- Takes a series of treatments Red is a harder color to remove, but it can be removed with laser tattoo removal. Laser tattoo removal takes a series of treatments, so it's difficult to give you a timeframe. Cost will vary. I recommend getting a formal consultation with a tattoo removal expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Removing red ink tattoo on neck I think that the 532 wavelength is needed for this color. Also, a laser that has both nano and picosecond pulses is best. The Piqo4 has high power with large spot sizes to give the safest and most effective treatment of the lasers available on the market. I imagine it will take 6-8 treatments at about 200 per treatment. Neck tattoos are easier to remove than ones on the arms or legs. The closer to the heart the better.

Answer: Red Ink Tattoo Removal Thank you for your question. Red ink is one of hardest colors to remove with a laser. In my office I use the Picosure laser. The Picosure laser 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 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 hope this information helps.

Answer: Tattoo Removal Pico lasers are the most advanced technology. I utilize the PiQo4 laser which has 4 Pico wavelengths including the 532 wavelength ideal for red pigment. Certain colors respond best to certain wavelengths. The amount 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. Price can vary based on location, technology and size of your tattoo. Best wishes.
