Although allergic reactions after a Laser Tattoo Removal session is not common, certain pigments that are being targeted in the Tattoo Removal Process can cause allergic reactions

Your tattoo may lie dormant for years and never experience an allergic reaction until you try to remove it. What we are asking the body to do is absorb the pigment

An allergic reaction is the bodies way of saying NO (I don’t like this stuff) and will literally push it out in the body by causing severe redness, swelling and bumpiness. Otherwise known as a foreign body reaction.

Some colors are more commonly responsible for an allergic reaction especially reds. Some contain mercury in it and once disturbed can cause havoc.

If this happens after a tattoo removal process this can be immediately treated with Injectable or topical cortisones. For more information on Laser Tattoo Removal visit https://www.lastinglooks.ca/laser-tattoo-removal-toronto/
