Laser Tattoo Removal Procedure & Questions To Ask A Dermatologist

General questions to ask your doctor before tattoo removals

  • Is a doctor on site? 
  • Is the doctor board-certified in dermatology? 
  • Was my medical history taken? 
  • Was I given an initial evaluation to determine if the technique or procedure is appropriate for my skin type? 
  • Did the doctor show me before-and-after photos?   

How does it work?

The advanced technology works by allowing the light produced by the laser to pass through the skin and break up the tattoo ink into tiny particles. The body then disposes of these fragments via its immune system. It usually takes several treatment sessions to ensure success, with regular intervals between sessions.


What is the estimated cost of the procedure? 

Cost is dependent on the size of the lesion


How long is one appointment?

Time is dependent on the size of the lesion that is from 10 mins to few hours.

How often will I need to receive treatment to remove my tattoo?

you will need treatment minimum every four weeks and a course of 6-10 treatments is often enough to remove the tattoo depending on the colour and depth of the tattoo ink.

Does tattoo removal hurt? 

There is a mild pricking sensation during the procedure, most people are comfotable during the procedure.

How long is the recovery time associated after each  procedure? 

1 week.

Do you have before-and-after patient images to help to prepare me for what to expect? 

Yes, we do have images that will help you in making decision.

Will someone walk me through the process before going in for treatment? 

Yes, we have experts who will clarify all your doubts.

Laser Hair Removal by Aura Skin Clinic , Vizag

As vizag city is turning cosmopolitan, frequency of cosmetic procedures have taken up. laser hair removal is become one of the most common cosmetic procedures in india. 

At Aura Skin Clinic we have advanced DIODE laser which is FDA approved and its operated by a certified Dermatologist. 




Below are some of the frequently asked questions about laser hair removal....?


How does it work ?

During laser hair removal, a laser beam passes through the skin to an individual hair follicle. The intense heat of the laser damages the hair follicle, which inhibits future hair growth.
How long does it take?


Some individuals will see very long term hair removal which may last for many years. Others may require maintenance treatments over time to maintain their degree of hair loss. It is truly impossible to determine in advance who will require how many treatments and how long the hair will remain gone. As stated above, laser hair removal works best in those with dark hairs on lighter skin, however newer technologies and newer lasers and light sources have made the procedure safe and effective in those with darker skin and those individuals of color.



How to Prepare for Laser Hair Removal ?
Avoid deep tanning (tanning beds, tanning creams), four to six weeks prior to the treatment. If you must go in the sun, use a sunscreen SPF 25 or greater. We require that all patients to wet shave 24 hours prior to the appointed time for the hair to stay in the hair follicle.
Post-Treatment Instructions:

Immediately after the treatment there may be redness and bumps at the treatment site, which will last up to two hours or longer.

It is normal for the treated area to feel like sunburn for a few hours. You may use a cold compress, aloe-vera gel, or 1-% hydrocortisone if needed.

Makeup may be used after the treatment, just make sure that you have moisturizer on under your makeup. In fact moisturizer will help the dead hair exfoliate from the follicle so use moisturizer frequently and freely on the treated area.

Avoid sun exposure for four to six weeks after the treatment to reduce the chance of dark and light spots. Use sunscreen SPF 25 or greater at all times throughout the course of the treatment.

Do not use any other forms of hair removal methods or products on the treated area during the course of the laser treatment (tweezing, waxing and depilatories), as it will prevent you from achieving your best results. You may shave the area if needed.

Anywhere from five to fourteen days after the treatment, shedding of the hair may occur and this may appear as new hair growth. This is not new hair growth, but dead hair pushing its way out of the follicle.

It is important for you to let us know how long the redness has lasted after treatment when significant hair growth was noticed in the area. This information will help us to individualise treatment and achieve optimal results for you.

Possible risks

As with any treatment, there are risks associated with it, though they are minimized in the hands of a qualified ASDS dermatologist. These include:

Pain
Blisters
Burns
Skin pigmentation problems
Scarring
