Tattoo artists create tattoos by injecting insoluble ink about a millimeter deep into an individual’s dermis (the second layer of the skin). When you look at a tattoo, you actually are viewing the tattoo ink through the epidermis. The pigments that make up tattoo ink consist of molecules too large for your body to remove, thus creating a permanent tattoo.
Many people are dissatisfied with their tattoos for a variety of personal reasons and seek treatments to remove them. Tattoo removal is performed by using specific wavelengths of energy and light to break up the ink molecules so that they can be metabolize by the body.
Tattoos can be removed fully or partially in the case that a cover up tattoo is the preferred option. If you are interested in having a tattoo removed and would like more information, we recommend submitting you tattoo to the online tattoo removal consultation. Once you have submitted all your consultation information a Medical Esthetician will be able to provide you with personalized information about your treatment plan.
