Every year, nearly 200 thousand people enlist in the armed forces.

As the most effective way to remove tattoos, laser tattoo removal with a Q-Switched laser allows current and prospective military members to meet requirements without objections due to tattoos.
The tattoo removal process is usually a quick and comfortable procedure, spanned out over multiple sessions depending on the tattoo’s size, density, location and color. Tattoo removal with an effective Q-Switched works with laser light applied to the tattooed area of the skin. The light is absorbed by the tattoo ink particles, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. When the laser light is applied, the tattoo ink particles absorb the laser energy, heat up, and fragment into smaller ink particles. These particles are then absorbed and flushed away by the body until the next treatment.
