What is the best laser for tattoo removal?

The best laser for tattoo removal depends on factors like wavelength versatility, pulse duration, and energy output to effectively target various ink colors while minimizing skin damage. Q-switched or ultrafast lasers with pulse durations of 100 ps to 10 ns and a fluence of ~10 J/cm² are ideal for fragmenting ink via selective photothermolysis. For example, the Lampo 266-1064 nm offers multiple wavelengths (266 nm, 532 nm, 1064 nm) for multi-color tattoos, while the Nimbus 770-1064 nm provides customizable sub-nanosecond pulses for precision. The Quantas-Q1 delivers high pulse energy (up to 32 mJ at 1064 nm) for efficient treatments.
