Laser tattoo removal aftercare - dos and don'ts

Laser tattoo removal aftercare is normally straightforward, however it may impact on your regular lifestyle routine for 24-48 hours.  Immediately after your laser tattoo removal session, your skin will feel warm and tender and may have a sunburn tingling sensation. The tattoo may have turned white, which will not last longer than one hour. Some may also experience bruising, swelling and prolonged redness in the area. Other possible outcomes include blisters, bleeding, crusting and scabbing. In these situations, apply antiseptic cream and cover the area with a sterile dressing until the area settles, generally 1-2 days.
