Understand how the tattoo removal process works, the average price, and how many sessions are needed for the tattoo to disappear
Rotate and move the subject tattoo removal comes into focus, especially when someone famous does this procedure. This happened again recently, when actress Daphne Bozaski, who currently plays Lupita in the soap opera Família é Tudo, on Rede Globo, resumed sessions to remove a drawing she had made on her shoulder at age 16.
Generally the method used to remove tattoos, as well as to remove permanent makeup and pigmented eyebrows, is laser. But do you know how it works?

How the procedure works
Micropigmentation specialist Thassia Piezzaroli explains that removing a tattoo is like undoing a painting on a skin canvas, where the ink has been embedded deeply. “In the removal process, we use the laser as a high-precision eraser. The light causes the ink, previously concentrated in agglomerated form on the skin, to break into multiple smaller particles, as if it had all been broken,” she says.
After breaking into tiny fragments, the paint particles are absorbed and eliminated naturally by the human body. “Just as our body gets rid of small impurities, it does the same job and begins to remove the fragments,” explains the specialist.
The number of sessions needed will vary, as different colors, depths, and types of paint affect it. Darker designs, for example, are less durable than lighter ones. However, it is usually between 6 and 10 sessions.
Each session costs from R$300, depending on the clinic, the professional and the type of laser. There should be an interval of at least 1 or 2 months between sessions, to give the body time to absorb it.
“It is worth remembering that, just as a drawing requires time and patience to be created, removal also requires care and repeated and spaced sessions to ensure that the skin returns to its original state without stains, marks or scars,” concludes aesthetician and micropigmentation artist Thassia Piezzaroli.
