The Spectra Laser Treatment Process
The Spectra Laser tattoo removal technique is considered the gold standard for tattoo removal. During the removal process, the Spectra Laser produces quick, high-energy pulses that break down tattoo ink into tiny particles that are absorbed into the body. The Spectra Laser is the most remarkable laser removal process because it can treat the most comprehensive range of tattoo colors, depths, and intensities. With multiple wavelengths we can now remove all color tattoos safely and effectively on most skin types.
Removing your undesirable tattoo will take multiple sessions. A few factors will determine the number of treatments you will need to erase the tattoo. These factors include:
- Size of the tattoo
- The type and color of ink used for the tattoo
- The depth of the tattoo
- The location of the tattoo
- The method of tattoo application
Each treatment session should take ten to thirty minutes, depending on the factors listed above. There must be a waiting time between sessions of about 8 weeks. The waiting period allows your body time to absorb the ink fragments and heal after each session. The easiest and fastest colors to remove are dark green and black. Colors such as purple, yellow, turquoise, or fluorescent dyes take more time and treatments to fade.
Will Tattoo Removal Be Painful Using the Spectra Laser?
When tattoo removal was first introduced, it was very painful. Even if people despised their tattoos, learning that the procedure could be painful hindered them from moving forward with the removal procedure. However, thanks to technology constantly evolving, tattoo removal is no longer as painful. At Modesto Aesthetics & Laser, we can erase or fade your tattoo with minimal discomfort to no pain involved. For tattoo removal, patients have reported only feeling a light prickly or snapping feeling. Patients may also feel a warm sensation.
How Quickly Can I Resume My Normal Activities After Each Session?
While your skin does need time to heal after each session, there is no recommended downtime. Individual downtime will vary depending on the session. The side effects of the sessions are typical side effects for laser-involved procedures. They may include tenderness, redness, scabbing, and blistering around the tattoo site.
