New Technology For Tattoo Removal

Are you one of the millions of people who would like a tattoo removed? We make a lot of decisions in life, and some of them don't stand the test of time. That tattoo you loved so much may now be just what you want to get rid of. Or a tattoo that just doesn't look that great anymore may need to step aside for something new.

As technology advances and it always does we now have a great option for tattoo removal. It is called Dermapen TattOff which is a needling technique to comfortably remove tattoo inks. A specialized lactic acid “activator” is gently infused to the depth of unwanted ink deposits. Subsequent micro-trauma cascades a regenerative response forming a scab that physically draws up the tattoo pigment. Once the scab falls off, so does the unwanted color. It is suitable for the permanent removal of cosmetic, professionally applied and amateur tattoos.

Dermapen TattOff treatments are designed to remove the pigmented areas of a tattoo in a series of visits the number of treatments depends on the size and the design. Tattoo pigment is inert and not recognized by the body as a foreign substance. That's one reason it is not rejected by the body and thus becomes permanent.

The procedure is virtually painless, but if you do have a low pain tolerance, a topical anesthetic can be applied to minimize any potential discomfort.

Small circles are created over the surface of your tattoo. We leave a space in between each circle and these areas will be treated in subsequent sessions. The spacing strategy helps with the healing process and minimizes the chance of scarring.

The procedure is “color-blind” and will remove all ink colors, including the most exotic hues and pigment blends.

For all of us who have gotten a tattoo and now find we want to get rid of it, there is a great option available thanks to DermaPen TattOff. It's easy, safe and affordable, so what are you waiting for?
