Artemis Laser Treatments

Here at Artemis we use one of the markets leading tattoo removal technology in the Allwhite3000 ND Yag laser. This laser can safely and effectively remove tattoos, permanent make up, and can partially lighten any existing tattoo before being reworked via your desire tattoo artist .Tattoo ink particles are too large for the bodies immune system to remove naturally because when tattoo pigment is injected into the lower layers in the skin (dermis) it becomes locked away by a wall of collagen fibres. Q-switched lasers produce very short bursts of high energy laser light. The light is absorbed by the large ink particles, generating heat that shatters the tattoo pigment into miniature particles which the body is able to remove. Because the tattoo ink selectively absorbs the laser energy, the surrounding skin doesn't overheat and there is no lasting damage.
