Bid Farewell to Ink: Laser Treatment for Tattoo Removal at New Roots!
OVERVIEW
HOW IT WORKS
Lasers remove tattoos by breaking up the pigment colors with a high-intensity light beam. Black tattoo pigment absorbs all laser wavelengths, making it the easiest color to treat. Other colors can only be treated by selected lasers based upon the pigment color.
Procedure
Atrophic scars are most common on the face. A depressed scar sits below the surrounding skin. They’re formed when not enough collagen is made while the wound is healing. There are three types of atrophic scars:
- Schedule a consultation with our dermatologists to evaluate your tattoo advise you regarding the type of laser and complete process.
- Your tattoo color, size, age will decide the number of sessions of laser treatment required for your treatment.
- Therapist will apply a topical anesthesia cream beforehand to avoid pain. After 30-40 mins you will be given a pair of protective eye shields.
- Our dermatologist uses the laser to pass pulses of intense light through the top layers of your skin that will be absorbed by the tattoo pigment only. Smaller tattoos will require fewer pulses while larger ones will need more to remove them.
- Icepack is applied to sooth the skin and antibiotic cream is applied to the skin. Avoid sunlight to the skin for few weeks.
- After 1-month next session is advised.
SIDE EFFECTS OF LASER TATTOO REMOVAL
To ensure one gets genuine result one should find an experienced dermatologist who has handful of procedures done and who is specialized in tattoo removal and has US FDA approved technology in house available. If procedure is not done with specified wavelengths and timings then it may cause serious complications like
- If no hygienic environment is maintained may cause infection and give a post scar.
- It is unlikely that your tattoo is completely removed due its variant of colors other than blue or black.
- Post treatment may end up with hypopigmentation where skin becomes more pale than surrounding skin or becomes hyperpigmentation where skin becomes more darker than surrounding skin.
COST OF LASER TATTOO REMOVAL
Cost of laser tattoo removal depends upon age, size and color of tattoo. It also depends upon the nature of tattoo whether it is professionally done or homemade. As homemade gets vanished very soon than professionally done as ink is deposited in dermis level as well. It depends upon the number of sessions required and which technology is having with your doctor. In new roots it charges from Rs.15000/- Rs.30000/- per session.
WHY NEW ROOTS FOR LASER TATTOO HAIR REMOVAL
Dermatologists from new roots understand that people want a tattoo removed quickly and completely. To give their patients faster tattoo removal, we continue to research technologies and techniques and keep the most advanced in service of patients. In new roots we use TRI- BEAM premium of jeisys medical from korea. This is Q- Switched Nd: YAD laser with dual pulse of 20 Hz which gives faster, safer and more effective toning. The best part is that it minimizes hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation due to mild thermal effect by 2 pulse peak energy. It also gives no pain. It stimulates collagen remodeling as well.
Successful tattoo removal
The tattoo removal laser we use allows uniform distribution of laser output beams to implement the best beam profile. Due to availability of adjustable spot sizes according to size of tattoo it allows fast and safe procedure.
Lesser sessions
The multi option handpiece of laser machines in new roots allows higher fluence compared to bulk mode allowing efficiently to destroy various pigments which were hard to treat before.

Due to some serious side effects, the FDA warns consumers about tattoo removal creams, ointments, and do-it-yourself tattoo removal kits. Here’s what the FDA says about these products:
