  2. Laser Treatment: The laser is passed over the tattoo, emitting pulses of light that break down the ink particles. The sensation can be likened to a rubber band snapping against the skin.
  3. Post-Treatment: The area is cooled with ice packs or a cooling device to minimize discomfort.

After Treatment

  • Recovery: Expect redness, swelling, and mild blistering, which typically subside within a few days.
