Article Synopsis
- Q-switched Nd:YAG lasers are typically used for black tattoo removal but may require multiple sessions and can be less effective on dark skin due to competing pigments.*
-
- A study with 60 patients compared the effectiveness of Q-switched Nd:YAG laser alone versus its combination with ultrapulse CO laser, finding that the combination method yielded better improvement in tattoo lightening over multiple sessions.*
-
- Results showed significant improvement in tattoo lightening scores for the combination group, while the side effects were similar for both treatment methods, indicating the combination approach is more effective for stubborn tattoos.*
