Tattoo Removal FAQ in Irvine, CA

What is the hardest tattoo to remove?

Tattoo Ink Green is the hardest color to remove followed by light blue. Neon colors are also incredibly difficult to remove, and typically require multiple treatments with the Ruby laser. As a general rule, the greater the contrast between the color of the tattoo pigment and your skin, the better the result.

Why do you have to wait 6 weeks between tattoo removal?

About six weeks is the ideal waiting time between laser treatments because that allows the treated area to heal while the immune system gets rid of the ink. Following the treatment aftercare instructions can help increase the rate of removal and keep your skin in the best condition possible.

Can bleach remove a tattoo?

One other option you can consider is through the use of skin bleaching creams. Though they don’t outright remove the tattoos, they can help in fading the tattoos thus making them less conspicuous.

Does vitamin E help with tattoo removal?

Apply topicals. When you’ve moved past the three-day mark, you can use a number of topicals that can speed up your recovery. Hydrocortisone cream or Vitamin E oil can help reduce your urge to scratch the treated area.

How can I remove a tattoo at home fast?

According to this at home tattoo removal method, you should apply table salt to a moist gauze sponge and sand down your skin where the tattoo is situated. You’ll have to continue doing this for at least 30 minutes. After about a week, you should be able to peel off the upper layer of skin.

What is the biggest concern with tattoo removal?

Scarring. Scarring is probably the biggest concern for those getting their tattoos removed with a laser. The more aggressive the treatments, the more likely it is to get a scar. Certain areas on the body are more likely to scar such as the wrists and ankles.

Where do tattoos fade the fastest?

There are certain areas of your body where a tattoo will fade faster. Areas of the body tattoos fade most include the hands, feet, elbows, armpit and inside of the arms. The reason is simple: friction. For example, tattoos on your feet fade quicker as socks and shoes are constantly rubbing these areas.

What hurts worse tattoo or removal?

Rest easy — while laser tattoo removal can hurt, chances are it won’t hurt as much as getting the tattoo did. Tattoo removal pain is comparable to the pain of a bad sunburn, and the laser pulses feel like a rubber band snapping against your skin.

Where does the ink go after laser tattoo removal?

Unfortunately, even after removal, the ink doesn’t just disappear — we actually excrete it through our lymphatic system.

What part of the body is best for laser tattoo removal?

The back, chest and stomach are among the easiest places to get a tattoo removed from. Because these areas are close to your heart, they benefit from good circulation and faster removal than tattoos on the extremities. It’s usually not too tricky to de-ink your torso.

How can I remove a tattoo naturally?

Another effective way of naturally removing tattoos is by using sand powder and mixing it with aloe vera to create a paste mixture. Take about 1/4 cup of sand powder and aloe vera gel, combine them to create a gooey paste, and apply it multiple times a day over your tattoo until it vanishes.
