How Lasers are Changing Tattoo Removal
More people than ever before are getting tattoos removed. The process is becoming faster, easier, safer, and more effective. These changes stem from the laser. At Lexington Tattoo Removal, our highly effective team has specialized training to operate our laser, providing you with the best tattoo removal treatment available. Learn about the most significant changes coming to the tattoo removal industry and what they mean for you.

What Does the Laser Even Do?
As the name implies, the laser plays a vital role in your laser tattoo removal. It penetrates the dermis to shatter the layer of ink with a burst of heat. Once the particles are small enough, your body treats them like a virus, and your immune system boots them out. With each session, the laser penetrates deeper into the skin, allowing us to provide effective tattoo removal and correction.
Although the process remains mostly unchanged, new players are making their way in.
Changes Coming: 2025 Tattoo Removal Updates
Technology has evolved, and new and improved laser technology is stepping into the light. They use shorter pulses, so the risk of scarring and other damage is significantly decreased, primarily when you work with trained specialists.
The new lasers have a bunch of benefits, including:
- Have shorter pulses, so your skin isn't exposed to the laser as long.
- Can penetrate scar tissue.
- Require using fewer sessions.
- Remove all of the tattoos more effectively.
- Reduce the risk of injury.
What Does This Mean for Tattoo Correction?
This means that if you have a stubborn tattoo that, even with past laser tattoo removal, didn't fade, that won't be a problem any longer. In the past, sometimes you just had to deal with the outline of a tattoo or go over it with a new one. That's no longer the case. You can remove almost any tattoo completely.
It also means that laser tattoo removal is becoming more effective than ever, so if you have a tattoo you're ready to bid adieu to, you can. Since your skin will be under the laser for even less time with a new laser, you'll have less redness and swelling to contend with.
Especially when paired with existing procedures and specialists who have undergone laser training, permanent skin damage should be a thing of the past, and even redness and swelling will only be temporary.
