TREATMENT: Tattoo removal and skin spots (laser q-switched)
The Q-switched laser treatments are performed with equipment from the latest technology and allow you to remove tattoos and brown spots in the skin. The timing to remove a tattoo varies depending on the size of the design, the type of pigment and color. On average, each single laser treatment lasts between ten and thirty minutes, but are necessary from a minimum of 3 sessions up to 10 to obtain the desired results. It must also be remembered that between one treatment and the other is necessary to wait about a month. For the brown spots on the face and body have the definitive effect can be reached in 1 or 2 sessions. During the session, the point-like laser beam retraces all the tattoo design, or the stain, determining a kind of internal combustion of the pigment which is then carried away from the cells of the skin itself. The treatment can be accompanied by feelings of intense heat but generally the discomfort is very well tolerated. To reduce the pain you can still apply an anesthetic cream before the session. Immediately after the session is applied gauze with an ointment to the affected area, which will remain reddened for some time. In some cases they can form small scabs that will fall on their own in a few days. The recovery time depends on the size of the tattoo and the individual ability of healing. In people sensitive redness can last a few weeks, while those with a darker complexion may notice a slight "fading" of the tattooed skin, which will improve over time. If you take the sun you must use a high sun protection cream. And 'good spending at least three months from the execution of the tattoo before you start to delete it and in any case the oldest tattoos are eliminated faster. Tattoos performed by amateurs are easier to remove than those of the professionals and some colors will come off more quickly than others (especially black). Removal usually does not leave streaks of color or scars but these elements depend on the particular tissue of the patient, and the responsiveness to treatment of the patient. After the first visit and before starting the treatment will be carried out and a personalized estimate of the final cost of each session; the definition of the number of sessions will be indicative, since it will depend on the type of pigment used, the level of absorption of the tissue and the degree of reactivity of each patient.
