Once upon a time, tattoos used to be considered permanent – so if you had your ex’s name tattooed on your bicep, you were stuck with the ink. However, new innovations in tattoo removal technology have made it possible to eliminate unwanted ink from your body, bringing a sigh of relief to exes and former “wild child” types everywhere.
But how exactly does laser tattoo removal work?
At Fountain of Youth Medical Spa in Victoria, Texas, Dr. Nhi Le and her staff members use the gold standard in tattoo removal: the Revlite 6 Conbio laser machine. This is considered to be one of the most powerful and effective tattoo removal devices in the industry, and for good reason – it typically only takes eight sessions to completely remove a tattoo (if anyone promises complete removal in one session, run the other way – it’s just not possible).
Take a look at just a few of the reasons why Dr. Le uses the Revlite 6 Conbio laser at the Fountain of Youth Medical Spa:

However, the Revlite 6 Conbio laser makes it possible for Dr. Le to remove tattoos on all skin colors and types. That means a more inclusive treatment process for diverse populations.
- The Revlite 6 Conbio laser is capable of lightening and removing all ink colors, which wasn’t previously possible. No matter what kind of tattoo you’d like to remove, this machinery can help turn your ink into history.
- Discomfort is minimal, thus ensuring that clients can undergo the procedure with less pain. Additionally, Dr. Le uses a numbing agent on the treatment area to minimize pain. The Revlite 6 Conbio machinery also blows cold air on the treatment area, which helps counteract the heating sensation of the laser.
- The Revlite 6 Conbio laser has also been approved for use in numerous aesthetic treatments, including skin tightening, scar reduction, wrinkle reduction, and acne removal. In other words, this machinery is considered to be your one-stop shop for every complexion woe you might have.

When you were eighteen, you thought that amazing rose tattoo across your bicep spoke to your rebellious and spirited personality. Now that you’re a professional, you still have that wild side…
That tattoo of a shooting star across your back may have seemed like a good idea when you were younger – but now you wish you could travel back in time and talk your younger self out of the idea. While there’s no denying that tattoos can be a significant part of your identity, you don’t want to deal with a permanent reminder of that matching Celtic symbol you decided to get with your sophomore year roommate in college.
Did you know that, according to the American Academy of Dermatology, 24 percent of Americans between the ages of 18-50 have at least one tattoo? While tattoos have risen in popularity over the past few decades, as people age and trends shift, the desire for tattoo removal has also been increasing.
Another interesting trend when it comes to tattoos is the tattoo ban by many employers. Even the military, once known as a haven for ink, prohibits “full-sleeve tattoos,” as well as half and quarter-sleeve tattoos that are visible. In an economy where the job market is tight, and competition is stiff, you’d hate to lose out to someone simply because you have a tattoo.
The sophisticated, double-pulse technology harnesses up to 60% morepower than single pulse lasers, helping the laser penetrate more deeply and cover more surface area. The PhotoAcoustic energy used safely penetrates the skin to target the tattoo at its core. Each pass of the laser vibrates and gently shatters the tattoo ink into micro-particles that are eventually removed from the body through natural processes.
