Black pigments are the ones which are the easiest to remove, some colors like green, red, etc. can only be treated by special lasers based on their colors. It is advised not to take aspirin before the procedure, because aspirin may produce bruising after the procedure. Two hours before the treatment, an anesthetic cream will be given. It will be wiped off before the start of the treatment. Others prefer local anesthesia which is injected on the tattoo prior to the treatment. The light of the laser are directed on the tattoo which makes the pigment breakup. The body’s scavenger cells will remove the residues for the next few weeks.

The number of sessions depends on the ink of the tattoo itself. It takes only minutes during a session. Antibacterial ointment must be maintained as directed by the doctor.
