Tattoo removal: can a colored tattoo be removed?

Removing a black tattoo is common, but what about colorful tattoos ? Long considered to be difficult to eliminate, they can now be treated effectively using the latest generation technologies such as PicoWay® laser, available at Grand Paris Clinic. This advanced device makes it possible to target several colors, even the most resistant ones, while preserving the skin.

Why are colored tattoos more difficult to remove?

Each pigment color reacts differently to the laser:

  • The black absorbs light easily, making it easy to get rid of it.
  • The red and the orange respond well to certain wavelengths.
  • The green, the blue and the yellow are more complex and require advanced technology.

That's why not all lasers are created equal. The PicoWay® has multiple wavelengths, which makes it particularly effective on multi-colored tattoos.

The PicoWay® laser: cutting-edge technology

PicoWay® uses ultra-short pulses (picoseconds) that break up pigments into microscopic particles. These are then eliminated naturally by the body.

Its advantages

  • Effective treatment for black and colored tattoos
  • Fewer sessions required compared to traditional lasers
  • Fewer pain and side effects
  • Suitable for all skin types

At the Clinique du Grand Paris, our doctors specialized in laser hair removal and tattoo removal adapt each protocol according to the color, density and age of the tattoo.

How many sessions for a colored tattoo removal?

The number of sessions depends on several factors:

  • The color and density of the pigments
  • The depth of the tattoo
  • The area of the body concerned
  • individual healing capacity

On average, 6 to 10 sessions spaced a few weeks apart are required to obtain optimal erasure. Dark colors fade more quickly, while lighter shades may require more treatments.

Results and healing

After each session, slight redness or small swelling may appear, which usually subsides within a few hours. The results improve progressively over the sessions. PicoWay® limits the risk of scarring and allows rapid recovery.
