Can a tattoo be 100 percent removed?

You have just googled ‘ can a tattoo can be 100 percent removed? ‘. Are you the victim of a poorly executed tattoo? Got a tattoo at 18 that was so funny but now you look at it and cringe? Looking for a way to remove a tattoo completely from your body and your memory? Many people regret getting a tattoo at some point in their lives and seek ways to erase it. Can a tattoo be 100 percent removed?, is one of the questions that cross our mind.

Tattoo removal has come a long way in recent years, with advancements in the technology that would make the Jetsons envious. It is now possible to significantly fade or remove tattoos in just a few quick sessions. However, completely removing a tattoo is a challenging process that may not necessarily result in 100 percent removal.

Candela Picoway laser tattoo removal works by breaking down the ink into teeny tiny particles under the skin making it easier for the body to naturally eliminate them.The smaller the particles are the smoother the removal process. While laser removal can fade tattoos significantly, achieving 100 percent removal can be difficult. The end goal may be a faint discolouration in the shape of your tattoo; however, we do strive for clear skin.

What are the factors?

Some factors that can affect the success of tattoo removal include the age of the tattoo, the colours used, the location on the body, and the skill of the tattoo artist. In addition, your skin type, immune system and circulatory system all play roles in how well your body can remove a tattoo. In brief, the PicoWay can only do so much and your body needs to cooperate to have the very best results!

We require a consultation with one of our qualified technicians to discuss your options and realistic expectations. A patch test will have to be done to ensure you do not have an adverse reaction to the treatment. To conclude, complete 100 percent tattoo removal may not always be possible. We are sure a significant improvement is achievable with our amazing technicians, the Candela PicoWay and following proper after care instructions. Remember, patience and multiple sessions will be required to get to the desired results.
