Lasering the wrong type of a tattoo can ruin your life by altering the color of the ink, leaving behind large remnants of tattoo ink, changing your skin tone, and even causing a life-threatening allergy.
Lasers afford great choices for tattoo removal but unfortunately, not all tattoos are appropriate for the laser.
In this video, I discuss not only the basics of laser tattoo removal but discuss 5 cases where laser tattoo removal would not be a good or safe choice.
The first is large white tattoos. Since with reflects all wavelengths of light it reflects the laser as well. Therefore, white ink will either be un-touched, become a dark oxidized pigment or disappear by pure chance after laser contact.
Next yellow and orange inks. These colors absorb a wavelength not offered in any laser but the 532nm KTP for red is closer to the wavelength absorbed by yellow ( 430 nm) and on occasion the KTP will remove yellow and orange but most times it only slightly fades these colors. Thus they remain as a yellow blob almost bruise-like and that will remain forever.
Third, to much red ink. Although we can remove reds with the KTP the red ink has a strong potential to create an allergic reaction. If you laser a large red ink tattoo the allergin load can cause an allergy. This can be as simple as itching and hives or an allergic crisis such as anaphylactic shock. Large red inks should be lasered with extreme caution and an EpiPen be nearby. At times an antihistamine and steroid is needed. Steroids are bad for you, weaken the bone, the immune system, alter the adrenal function and raise blood sugar.
Fourth is many custom colors, lasers prefer basic colors not blends so green mixed with red or yellow to create a custom color makes laser removal difficult and at times impossible,
Finally, large tattoos with multiple colors and ultra high ink load. Aside from requiring multiple lasers large tattoos with ultra high volumes are difficult to completely remove and likely will leave behind large remnants of ink leaving the patient very unhappy.
