What you need to know before Tatoo removal in mumbai

• Most professionally made uniform level tattoos can be removed

• Newer inks and pastel shades may be difficult to remove. Red and yellow are especially challenging
• Fading will happen with each session. About 4-6 sessions may be required

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The laser beam penetrates the skin to break up the ink particles. These particles are removed by the body’s immune system (scavenger cells) over a period of time. This leads to fading of the tattoo. The laser energy only targets the tattooed skin leaving the un-inked surrounding skin unharmed.
