Blink Tattoo Removal – Blog

In order to join the Marines, this 24-year-old Blink patient needs laser tattoo removal of the Alpha and Omega wrist tattoos that he’s worn for 6 years. His tattoos are done completely in black ink, with shading; black ink is one of the easiest colors to remove because the pigment is quickly fragmented by rapid pulse laser wavelengths. This patient will need a total of 10 sessions during which Blink staff will treat both wrists, speeding up his total treatment time so he’s able to start Marine boot camp on time. He’ll soon be on his way to a military career thanks to Blink’s skilled providers and their top-notch q-switched lasers.
