Everything You Need To Know Before Getting A Tattoo Removed

Tattoos can be deeply personal expressions of art and identity, but sometimes, they no longer align with who we are. Tattoo removal is a great way to start over, regardless of whether the design is faded, badly done, or just no longer meaningful. In order to make tattoo removal as safe, efficient, and comfortable as possible, we at Medical Village in Dubai use the newest laser technologies, such as PICOSURE, PICOWAY, and REVLITE. That said, in this article we will go over everything you need to know before undergoing this process. Let’s dive right in…

The Basics: What Is Tattoo Removal?

The goal of tattoo removal is to break down the ink particles in your skin so that, over time, your body's immune system can naturally get rid of them. Advances in laser technology have made tattoo removal more accurate and successful than in the past. Modern lasers ensure a safer and more effective removal technique by focusing on the ink pigments without harming the surrounding skin.

That said, at Medical Village we employ cutting-edge lasers, which break down even the most resilient ink hues, like blue and green, with ultra-brief bursts of laser energy. The outcome? Faster results and fewer sessions.

The Tattoo Removal Process

Now that we know the basics, let’s explain the process. In order to remove a tattoo, energy pulses are delivered into the skin using a specialized laser. The pigments in the ink absorb the light. The ink is broken up into smaller pieces by this energy, and your body's system progressively removes them.

Before the procedure, the area is cleaned, and a numbing cream may be applied to ensure your comfort. The actual laser treatment takes around 10 to 30 minutes, depending on how big and intricate your tattoo is. The majority of patients have a transient, acceptable snapping sensation that is comparable to the feel of a rubber band against their skin.

The Different Types of Tattoo Removal Services

At Medical Village we offer the widest variety of laser tattoo removal machines
in the Middle East, all under one roof. Here are a few that we offer:

PICOSURE: Perfect for removing multicolored and difficult tattoos in fewer sessions.
PICOWAY: Well-known for its precise targeting of deep ink layers with little to no skin discomfort.
REVLITE: Provides reliable results and works well on dark and black tattoos.

All that being said, the FDA has approved each of these lasers, guaranteeing a safe and efficient tattoo removal treatment.
