Skin discolored?

Skin discolored?

If you get your tattoo removed by laser or ointment will your skin where the tattoo was be a different color than the rest of your skin?

If you go to the wrong place yeah I think you run that risk. It heals up something similar to a scar so it will be slightly visible up close but that is it.

Dont expect the process to be quick. Your tattoo will look like garbage for months until you finally fade it away so just keep that in mind before you start cuz after one or two sessions you will have so many white spots and fading it will be awful looking.

They are actually getting better each year with the quality of the laser. It takes a very thin layer off each time so because its fresh skin you can see the tones are different but once that skin is in the sun long enough it will blend in with the rest of your surrounding skin.

yes, if the tattoo will be removed by inappropriate method then it may scar your skin,though many people don't care much of the after effect of tattoo removal but as you want a perfect result then use laser tattoo removal machine as it give safe result and it is also quick and comfortable to use and gives very less pain relatively.

How does the laser not alter your skin pigment?

Its just a light burn that takes a layer of skin off so right after your skin looks different bc it is fresh but a few days outside and it will look like the rest of your body again

It does alter it slightly but when you get back out into the sun your skin will go back to the same as it was before
