Types of lasers for tattoo removal: Complete guide

Tattoo removal has significantly evolved thanks to laser technology. This technique has revolutionized the process, allowing tattoos to be erased safely and effectively. However, not all lasers are the same. Each type of laser has specific characteristics that make it more suitable for certain ink types and skin tones.

How does laser tattoo removal work?

Before diving into the different types of lasers, it’s important to understand how the process works.
Lasers emit intense pulses of light aimed at the tattoo ink. The laser energy breaks the ink particles into smaller fragments that the body can naturally eliminate.

Once the laser has fragmented the ink particles, our immune system takes action. Specialized cells called macrophages “engulf” these particles and transport them through the lymphatic system.

Types of lasers for tattoo removal

Q-switched laser:

These are the most commonly used lasers for tattoo removal. They emit very short and powerful pulses of light, effectively breaking down the ink. Types:

  • Ruby: One of the first lasers used, effective for black tattoos.
  • Alexandrite: Ideal for red, orange, and yellow tattoos.
  • Nd:YAG: Versatile, capable of treating a wide range of ink colors, including black and lighter tones.

Picosecond laser:

These are the latest generation of lasers for tattoo removal. They emit extremely short pulses, a thousand times faster than Q-switched lasers. Greater effectiveness on multicolored tattoos and darker skin tones, lower risk of scarring, and fewer sessions required.

  • Lower risk of side effects: Reduced risk of burns, scars, and changes in skin pigmentation.
  • Versatility: Can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions, including colorful tattoos, sunspots, melasma, and scars.
  • Fewer sessions required: In many cases, fewer treatment sessions are needed compared to other types of lasers.

High-power picosecond laser:

An evolution of the picosecond laser, offering even greater power and precision.

Ideal for challenging tattoos, such as very dense black or white tattoos.

They offer even greater benefits:

  • Faster treatment speed: Thanks to their high power, they allow for larger areas to be treated in less time.
  • Greater penetration depth: They can reach deeper layers of the skin, which is especially useful for difficult-to-remove tattoos.
  • Faster results: Patients can notice more visible results in fewer sessions.

What factors influence the choice of laser?

  • Tattoo colors: Different lasers are more effective for different colors.
  • Skin type: Skin tone influences the choice of laser to avoid complications like hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation.
  • Tattoo depth: Lasers can penetrate to different depths in the skin.
  • Tattoo location: Some areas of the body are more sensitive than others.
