LASER TATTOO REMOVAL
Virtue Tattoo is a full-service tattoo studio that offers premium laser treatment for unwanted ink, tattoo regret, and tattoo modification. Virtue Tattoo has served the greater Houston area for over 13 years and is renowned for its superior tattooing and piercing. We are excited to add laser tattoo removal to our award-winning services to help clients remove, revise, and modify their unwanted tattoos.
HOW LASER TATTOO REMOVAL WORKS
Laser tattoo removal speeds up the natural fading course by breaking down the large ink particles into bite-size pieces that are easier for your immune system to remove. Our Astanza Trinity laser releases high-speed pulses of light energy over the unwanted tattoo during a laser session. The light energy safely penetrates through the skin and targets the ink particles trapped in the dermis layer without damaging any surrounding skin tissue. The ink particles absorb the light energy, heat up, and shatter into tiny nanoparticles that the phagocytes remove through your lymphatic system.
This process is repeated over several treatments until your tattoo is completely removed or faded sufficiently for a cover-up. The number of treatments needed depends on the client and the tattoo being treated. Laser treatments are spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart for your skin to heal and your immune system to flush out the shattered ink.
Most clients need 8 to 12 treatments for complete removal and fewer to fade a tattoo for a cover-up. However, all clients require multiple treatments to shatter a tattoo's many layers of ink. Call our Houston, Texas practice today to schedule a complimentary laser tattoo removal consultation!
