Issues of removing red color
We simulate the situation. You have a client with a tattoo made in red. What are your actions? Will you remove it as usual? The first mistake!
Correct technical equipment
In most devices there is a menu for selecting the wavelength. This, I think, is clear. But! Have you ever realized that just choosing a wavelength of 532 nm is not enough? There is also necessary to change the nozzle. If you do, then, I can congratulate you, you enter that small percentage of masters who do everything right
Understanding the correct result on the skin
What does the area of the skin look like after working with a wave of 532 nm? Is there the same whitening, frost, as usual at 1064 nm? If yes, then I cann't congratulate you. If frost appeared, then you injured the
skin and your client may have complications.
What to do and how to see the result?
I suggest orienting to process the entire area of the tattoo, there you will be able to notice minor changes in color, and in a few minutes the puffiness of this area will appear. Once you understand that all three points are observed, stop – the result is obtained, the skin is not injured!

Why 532 nm?
Everything is simple. For pigments of the warm spectrum, the wavelength is 532 nm, and for a cold one, 1064 nm, if there are green and yellow shades, complex laser processing will be required. Red color absorbs a wave of 532 nm much more efficiently than 1064 nm.
* For the green and yellow spectrum, ruby and alexandrite lasers are most effective, but, unfortunately, they are just starting to gain momentum in the industry.
! The inversion of red pigment is more typical for permanent make-up, and not for tattooing. This is happening due to the composition of the pigments: organic dyes are usually used for tattoos, for permanent make-up – inorganic (iron oxides)
! The 532 nm tip is much more traumatic for the skin even if there no pigment in the skin, you need to understand it and use it only "according to strict indications" – for red color. Never use the wave 532 nm after 1064 nm on the same area
! The red pigment can not always be removed to "clean" skin, if the pigment itself is located deep in the dermis. It all depends on each individual case
! The last thing I would like to say is your safety when doing the procedures. Glasses, glasses and again glasses! Yes, you do not "see" waves at 1064 nm, but this does not mean that they don't exist - it is, and in the colossal strength. Take care not only of customers, but of yourself! Vision is a damn important thing!
