Laser can be used to remove blue, brown, black and other colors of tattoo pigment

and birthmarks from the skin. Although laser is effective in most cases, there is

however no guarantee that the treatment can totally erase the coloring.

​

Depending on the size and color of your tattoo or birthmark, the number of treatments

may vary. Most patients do not require any anesthesia. However, depending on the location

of the tattoo or birthmark and the pain threshold for the patient, the physician may elect to

use some form of anesthesia.
