Did you make a rash decision in selecting a tattoo when you were younger? Perhaps the design has faded or changed with time? Luckily, laser tattoo removal in Northern Virginia is a solution to unwanted ink.

LASER TATTOO REMOVAL

Lasers remove tattoos by breaking up the pigment colors with a high-intensity light beam.

How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?

Basically, laser energy is focused at the unwanted tattoo and breaks up the pigments in the skin. After the treatment is completed, your body naturally removes the ink that has broken down.

The Lutronic Spectra Laser allows tattoo removal at Northern Virginia based Vitalia MedSpa to be precise. The laser uses different frequencies to target each color.
