Everyone does things they come to regret. For some people, the tattoos that felt so right at one time turn out to be something they regret later in life. If this sounds familiar, you may have already wondered if there was any way to erase unwanted tattoos from your skin.

Good news: Today, thanks to highly advanced, state-of-the-art laser tattoo removal treatment, it’s never been easier to get rid of unwanted tattoos. The experienced care providers at CANJ Aesthetics in Oakland, New Jersey, can vanish the ink that you no longer find attractive, or that no longer represents the image you’d like to project to the world.

Read on as our skilled medical aesthetic team explains how we remove tattoos safely and effectively, right here in our office.

Targeted pulses of gentle laser energy

Tattoos are meant to be permanent. When you get a tattoo, the tattoo artist uses specialized needles to insert ink pigments into the deepest layers of your skin tissue. Although it may only take minutes or hours to receive a tattoo, it’s designed to last forever.

Erasing a tattoo isn’t as easy as getting one. But now, thanks to in-office laser treatments, you can have your tattoo removed.

At CANJ Aesthetics, we use the advanced Harmony XL Pro laser system to remove tattoos. This system delivers gentle pulses of laser energy directly to the ink in your tattoo. As the ink absorbs the light from the laser, its colors break down into tiny particles. Different wavelengths of laser energy target different colors within your tattoo.

Over time, your body’s lymphatic system systematically eliminates the tiny broken-down ink particles from your body. As this ink particle reabsorption and elimination process unfolds, your tattoo gradually fades away.

Tattoo removal with the Harmony XL Pro laser system is very safe. Because of its precision and gentleness, tattoos can be removed without discoloring, scarring, or otherwise damaging your skin.

What to expect during tattoo removal

Before your tattoo removal session, your provider numbs your skin with a local anesthetic. Then, they adjust the laser system to the setting that’s relevant to your tattoo color and type, and carefully pass the specially designed laser tool over your skin.

The number of laser treatments you require depends on the size and color of your tattoo, as well as the type of ink the tattoo artist used and the depth to which they injected the pigment.

If you require multiple treatments, your provider schedules them several weeks apart.

You may experience minor swelling, redness, bleeding, or blistering for one or two days after your procedure. Applying an antibiotic cream between sessions helps accelerate healing and reduce the risk of infection.
