Tattoos are popular all over the world and can be an artistic and personal style expression for many people.

However, sometimes they can become a regret. Many people end up tattooing names or designs that no longer have meaning for them, or that now bother them for other reasons.

But luckily, there is a safe and effective solution for anyone wanting to remove a tattoo. The most used treatment for this purpose is the laser , which is capable of fragmenting the tattoo pigment so that it can be peeled off or drained by the lymphatic system.

Dr. Rafael Muller de Carvalho , an experienced physician in Pirassununga – SP, uses QS (quality-switched) lasers to remove tattoos with different colors.

It uses a 1064nm Nd:YAG laser for blue and black tattoos, and a 532nm Nd:YAG laser for red, orange and yellow tattoos.

For optimal results, it’s important to keep in mind that it usually takes several treatment sessions to completely remove a tattoo.

The number of sessions will depend on the size, location and colors of the tattoo.

Also, sessions should be spaced a few weeks apart to allow the skin to properly heal between sessions.

It is common to experience some discomfort during the procedure, but most patients tolerate it well, mainly because the sessions are quick and most tattoos are small. So don’t worry so much about the pain!
