Laser Tattoo Removal In Raipur
YAG uses high-intensity pulses of laser light to target the tattoo pigment. When particles of tattoo ink absorb the laser light, they are broken into tiny fragments. These fragments are then absorbed through the body’s natural cleansing mechanism.
- The laser targets pigment by using light.
- The body naturally flushes the ink particles out.
- As more of the tattoo’s pigment is broken down, the lighter the tattoo will become.
- Eventually, with treatments, the tattoo is removed completely.
