Laser tattoo removal is a popular way to get rid of unwanted ink. It’s fast, effective and relatively painless compared to traditional methods such as dermabrasion or surgery. The most advanced laser technology for tattoo removal is the Alma Harmony laser, which uses multiple wavelengths to target all colors of inks used in tattoos.
The Alma Harmony laser was developed by ALMA Lasers Inc., a leading global provider of medical aesthetic solutions. Unlike other lasers that are limited to one or two wavelengths, the Alma Harmony has up to five different wavelengths – enabling it to specifically target every type of ink used in tattoos. With these multiple wavelength combinations, the Alma Harmony can achieve optimal results with fewer treatments than other lasers.
The Alma Harmony laser works by using an intense beam of light to break down the tattoo ink into tiny particles, which are then removed from the body through its natural healing process. The amount of treatments required for complete removal varies depending on a variety of factors such as the size, depth and color(s) used in the tattoo. However, most tattoos can be removed within 6-8 treatments with some colors being completely eliminated after only 3 or 4 sessions.
Each treatment is relatively quick – typically taking around 10 minutes per session – and is performed in a comfortable environment. There may be some redness or swelling following the procedure; however, this usually subsides within 24 hours and does not require any medical intervention. Additionally, no downtime is necessary following a session and patients may return to their normal activities immediately.
