Tattoo removal with Q-Switch laser
Many people get tattoos but regret having them after a while. Until a few years ago, tattoo removal was not an easy task and was usually done with painful and risky methods. But today, with the advancement of laser devices, this is possible safely and effectively. One of the best methods for this is the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser.

How does a Q-switched laser work?
This device produces very powerful, short pulses in the nanosecond range. This energy causes the tattoo pigments to break down into very small particles. Then the body’s immune system gradually absorbs and eliminates them.
Benefits of using Q-switched laser
- Very little damage is done to the surrounding skin.
- It works on most colors (especially black and blue).
- It is suitable for all skin types, especially with the 1064 nm wavelength.
- The removal of pigments is gradual and the skin’s appearance becomes more natural.
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions varies for each person and depends on factors such as the color of the tattoo, the depth of the color, the time since the tattoo, and the type of skin.
Usually, between 4 and 10 sessions are needed, with sessions spaced about 6 to 8 weeks apart.

1. Does the Q-switched laser remove all tattoo colors?
This laser works best on dark colors like black, brown, and blue. Lighter colors like green, red, or yellow can also be removed, but usually require more sessions.
2. Does laser tattoo removal hurt?
The intensity of the pain depends on the individual’s sensitivity. Most patients say it feels like a rubber band being pulled across the skin. To make it more comfortable, you can apply a numbing cream before starting.
3. After how many sessions will the tattoo be completely removed?
The number of sessions varies from person to person. It usually takes between 4 and 10 sessions, depending on factors such as the color and depth of the tattoo and skin type.
4. Is it possible to return a tattoo?
No. Once the pigments are excreted by the body, there is no going back. Only in some cases a very slight shade may remain.
5. Does Q-switch laser have any side effects?
Yes, but side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as redness, inflammation, or peeling. In rare cases, discoloration or scarring may occur.
6. How much does it cost to remove a tattoo with a Q-switched laser?
The exact cost depends on several factors: the size and color of the tattoo, the number of sessions required, and the clinic’s rates. It’s best to visit a doctor for an in-person consultation.
