Abstract

Laser therapy has been popular and widely used for tattoo removal. Basic principles for utilizing lasers in tattoo removal for different types and colors of tattoos are required to minimize and avoid unwanted side effects. Appropriate parameters of lasers are not the only keys to successful laser removal treatment. In this review, common pitfalls in removing tattoos with lasers are discussed. Several factors should be taken into consideration and realistic goals should be discussed at the first encounter with patients. Non-ablative lasers may apply to a simple tattoo without any cutaneous reaction while ablative lasers are better for traumatic tattoos. Laser is not always the best option for tattoo removal in some circumstances and other measures can be considered for the best interest of patients and outcome.

激光设备洗纹身的陷阱:文献综述
激光疗法已被广泛用于去除纹身。利用激光去除不同类型和颜色的纹身需要遵循基本原则,以尽量减少和避免不必要的副作用。激光的适当参数并不是激光洗纹身治疗成功的唯一关键。在这篇综述中,我们将讨论使用激光去除纹身的常见误区。在与患者初次见面时,应考虑几个因素并讨论切合实际的目标。非烧蚀激光可用于没有任何皮肤反应的简单纹身,而烧蚀激光则更适用于创伤性纹身。在某些情况下,激光并不总是去除纹身的最佳选择,为了患者的最佳利益和效果,可以考虑采取其他措施。
