What colors are best for laser tattoo removal?

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Thanks for visiting the website of New Look Laser Tattoo Removal – the most popular and respected Dallas laser tattoo removal clinic.

Patients often ask about our ability to remove certain colors of tattoo ink. For most of them, we at New Look Laser Tattoo Removal have great news. But for a few, we aren’t able to tell them that we can remove their tattoo completely. Here’s a breakdown of the colors of tattoo ink and how easily they can be removed:

Easiest colors of tattoos to remove:

Black
Red

Able to remove, but sometimes not as easy:

Purple
Brown
Pink
Yellow
Orange

Very difficult to remove completely:

Green
Blue
White

Here’s why some colors are easier for laser tattoo removal and some colors are harder. Tattoo removal lasers generate light with different wavelengths. These wavelengths are absorbed by different colors of tattoo ink. Certain wavelengths correspond with black, some with red, some with purple, and some with blue, etc. The wavelengths most common in high-end tattoo removal lasers, like the Affinity QS used at New Look Laser Tattoo Removal, is able to handle just about every color except for blue and green. We are able to fade blue and green tattoos somewhat, but very rarely can we remove these colors completely. For other colors, though, we are able to do a great job.

Are you allergic to your tattoo ink?

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

Here at New Look Laser Tattoo Removal in Dallas, TX we have seen several clients who are allergic to their tattoo ink.

How do you know you are allergic to your tattoo ink?

There are several indicators and you don’t have to have all of them to have an allergy to your ink.

1. Swelling in the area that was tattooed that won’t seem to go away.

2. Redness on the tattoo area and surrounding the tattoo.

3. Itching that will not stop.

All these are signs and symptoms of being allergic to your tattoo ink. Sometimes you are allergic to all tattoo colors. In our experience people who are allergic to their ink tend to be allergic to different shades of red more than other colors. Infact, your tattoo can be perfrectly healed in every area except for the color you are allergic to.

(Caution: Redness and Swelling are also signs of an infection so be sure to consult our New Look Laser Tattoo Removal staff or your doctor if you tattoo does not seem to be healing)

What do you do if you are allergic to your tattoo ink?

Don’t worry, it is more common than you think. We have seen several cases in both our Houston and Dallas locations. You simply need to get it removed. We can remove your tattoo just like any other tattoo. The only difference would be you would want to take an anti-histamine like Benadryl or Claritin while we are doing your removal. It is safe and you will have your tattoo and the itchiness gone in no time.
