Tattoo removal is not just a cosmetic procedure, but a relatively active laser treatment. Therefore, post-operative recovery and care will definitely take more effort than most laser treatments. The most common question people ask is whether blisters will form, and if so, how to take care of them afterwards.
Some people often ask: Second degree burns also cause blisters and exudate, so how is it different from the blisters after laser tattoo removal? Does it mean that second degree burns are caused when tattoos are removed?
In fact, this is indeed the case. The blisters after laser tattoo removal are indeed a burn reaction caused by laser treatment.The reason for this is that the tattoo dye absorbs the laser light energy and converts it into heat energy. Therefore, although lower energy is usually used during the first one or two laser treatments, the tattoo dye is the most during the first one or two treatments (because it is impossible for the tattoo dye to increase with more treatments). Therefore, even if the energy is the lowest during the first one or two treatments, the probability of blisters after surgery and the size of the blisters are often the most obvious during the entire treatment course.
In most cases, in the subsequent tattoo removal treatment, even if the subsequent energy continues to increase, as the tattoo pigment continues to fade, the blisters will usually be relatively reduced a lot in the middle and late stages, to the point that no blisters will occur at all.
In case of blisters,The simplest way to care for it without leaving scars is to let the blisters gradually absorb on their own.,Therefore, we usually recommend that in the early stage of treatment, the most convenient post-treatment care method is to directly cover the treated area with artificial skin, so as to prevent the blisters from being accidentally broken, and you can bathe, touch water or carry out normal daily activities without worry. In addition, we will also use Zimmer Cryo6/Cryo Air and other cold air machines during and after treatment, and apply ice compresses after surgery for an appropriate period of time. These treatments can minimize the chance of blisters or reduce the size of blisters.
