Q-switch ruby laser tattoo(tattoo)Removal
At our clinic, we can remove tattoos and permanent makeup using a Q-switched ruby laser.Ruby laser has the property of being well absorbed by blue, black, brown, etc. in the skin, but by using the Q-switch method, the power of the light is significantly amplified, and it can selectively target pigments such as tattoos and permanent makeup. will be removed.The dye in the skin that is destroyed by laser irradiation is gradually absorbed into the body.Therefore, after irradiation, the color will gradually fade over time (about six months).
Tattoo removal treatment using ruby laser requires more times than surgeries such as skin excision and suturing, but there is less pain and risk from the procedure, and the treatment time is short, so it can improve the patient's mental health and well-being. It has the advantage of being less physically demanding.Another major advantage is that it leaves almost no scars.
