Cosmetic Surgery for Tattoo Removal
For many, the time and consideration that goes into the decision to get a tattoo is not taken lightly; and still, there are others who make the decision under, not the best circumstances and wind up with an arm full of regret (or a back full, or a chest full, or even a shoulder full). Whether the decision to put something on your body permanently is made in sound mind or under the influence of drugs and alcohol, there is a way, through cosmetic surgery that those decisions can be changed and removed.
There are several options available for cosmetic tattoo removal, there are lasers, minor surgery, dermabrasion and even a process of injecting saline have been found effective in removing tattoos. Lasers can be used to break up the ink in the skin and the type of laser and the color of the ink will be a determining factor for the amount of time it will take to remove the entire tattoo. Laser blasts don't even last a second and with the short bursts will work to remove the ink from the skin. As an example, a small tattoo may take as many as 200 micro-second laser blasts to be fully removed.
Another form of removal can be accomplished with Intense Pulsed Light which acts similarly to the laser only rather than using lasers it uses pulsed light for the same effect. Prior to the procedure a numbing agent may be applied to the skin that will be worked on the first tattoo removal treatment is usually fairly mild and they grow in intensity as they progress and this is in an effort to let the skin and the patient adjust gradually to the procedure.
Dermabrasion is a tattoo removal procedure that is, in essence, a sandpaper that is used on the site. Layers are removed with the paper and this can be uncomfortable so a numbing agent is also applied. It's a process and will not be done in one session and will require multiple visits.
At times injections of saline can be used, they are shot under the skin in an attempt to break up the ink material and cause the tattoo to become blurred where a cover-up tattoo can be placed on top of the original tattoo.
A tattoo is drawn onto the skin with a pen-like instrument that uses needles filled with ink, in an order to allow the tattoos to last, several layers of skin must be inked and this is a painful process. Understandably, the process to remove these tattoos is not a process without its discomfort and these two reasons should be closely considered before setting out to have a permanent mark made on your body.
If you're thinking of getting a tattoo that is any way a temporary idea, don't do it! Save yourself the cost and the physical pain before you sit down in the chair with the tattoo artist. Really think the idea through; if you're missing a girlfriend from high school who used to call you, "PopEye," don't put his likeness on your shoulder in an attempt to prove your never-ending love to her; because you'll probably spend a lot of time explaining to all of the women you date in the future why the homely, spinach-eating, toothless sailor is something you wanted printed on your body and NO woman wants to think of your old girlfriend every time your shirt is off.
