Abstract
A cosmetic method of removing a tattoo from skin tissue is disclosed. The method uses a source of thermal energy with a low thermal time constant, and comprises the step of operating the thermal energy source to form first and second adjacent regions of thermally-modified tissue. The first region overlies the second region and is thermally modified to a greater extend than the second region. The method is such that tattoo pigment(s) contained in the first region are transepidermically eliminated, and tattoo pigment(s) in the second region are removed by an inflammatory response.
