Laser Tattoo Removal & Pigmentation Treatment in Jalandhar

A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser breaks down unwanted tattoo ink and excess skin pigment so the body can clear it naturally – for fading tattoos, freckles, pigmentation and dull skin.

Dr. Tarunveer Singh Kumar MBBS, DDVL, MD (Dermatology)

What is Laser Tattoo Removal & Pigmentation Treatment?

The Q-switched Nd:YAG laser fires extremely short, high-energy pulses that shatter ink or pigment particles into tiny fragments without significantly heating the surrounding skin. The body's immune system then gradually clears these fragments.

It works very well on black and dark blue tattoos and, with a second wavelength, on some red and coloured inks. At lower energy it is used to lighten pigmentation, freckles, sun spots and some birthmarks, and for carbon laser peel (laser toning) to refine pores and brighten the skin.

Pigmentation such as melasma has many triggers – hormones, sun exposure and skin irritation – so Dr. Tarunveer combines laser with prescription creams and sun protection for lasting results.

How the Treatment Works

  1. Assessment

    The tattoo colours and depth, or your type of pigmentation, are assessed to plan the right wavelength and sessions.

  2. Protection & numbing

    Protective eyewear is used, and a numbing cream is applied for tattoo removal.

  3. Laser treatment

    Rapid pulses feel like a rubber band snapping on the skin; a treated tattoo briefly turns whitish.

  4. Follow-up sessions

    Tattoos are usually treated every 6–8 weeks and pigmentation every 2–4 weeks.

Results & Number of Sessions

Tattoos fade gradually with each session. Amateur and black tattoos usually respond faster than professional, multi-coloured tattoos, and complete clearance may need many sessions. Some colours, such as green and light blue, are harder to remove.

Pigmentation lightens progressively over a course of treatment. Maintenance sessions and daily sun protection are important, especially for melasma.

Aftercare

  • Keep a treated tattoo clean and apply the prescribed ointment
  • Do not pick scabs or burst blisters
  • Use sunscreen daily and avoid direct sun
  • Avoid swimming and saunas until the skin has healed
  • Continue prescribed creams for pigmentation

Is Laser Tattoo Removal & Pigmentation Treatment Safe?

Temporary redness, swelling, pin-point bleeding or blistering may occur after tattoo removal, and mild redness after pigmentation treatment. Temporary lightening or darkening of the skin is possible, especially with sun exposure. Correct settings and properly spaced sessions minimise these risks.

Please tell the doctor before treatment if you have:

  • Pregnancy
  • A recent sun tan
  • Active infection in the area
  • A tendency to form keloids (for tattoo removal)
  • Use of photosensitising medicines (inform the doctor)

FAQ

Laser Tattoo Removal & Pigmentation Treatment: Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions are needed to remove a tattoo?

It depends on the size, colours, depth and age of the tattoo. Amateur tattoos may fade in a few sessions, while professional tattoos often need 6–10 or more sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart.

Will my tattoo be removed completely?

Many tattoos can be faded significantly or removed, but complete clearance is not guaranteed – especially with multi-coloured inks. Dr. Tarunveer will give you a realistic expectation after examining your tattoo.

Is laser tattoo removal painful?

It feels like a rubber band snapping on the skin. A numbing cream is used to make the session more comfortable, and sessions are short.

Can laser treat melasma and pigmentation?

Yes, low-energy Q-switched laser toning can lighten many types of pigmentation. For melasma it works best as part of a combined plan with prescription creams and strict sun protection.

What is the cost of laser tattoo removal in Jalandhar?

The cost depends on the size of the tattoo or the area of pigmentation and the number of sessions. You will receive a clear quote after your consultation.
