How does Cutera Enlighten work on Tattoo Removal?

The color pigments of the tattoo are targeted using three different laser wavelengths (532 nm, 1064 nm and 670 nm). Once the pigmented cells absorb the heat from the laser, they shatter and are either eliminated through the skin or absorbed by the body. As the tattoo’s pigments are reduced over several treatments, the appearance of the tattoo will slowly fade.

Cutera Enlighten system is safe and effective for all skin types and ink colors, with a low-l risk of scarring and skin damage.

How many treatments are required for Tattoo removal?

Multiple treatments will be required for complete tattoo removal. The number of treatments required will depend on the size and placement of the tattoo as well as the colors and the depth of the ink.
