Abstract

Because an ideal method for removing tattoos still eludes us, a plethora of alternatives described in the literature is available. Selecting the right treatment modality requires familiarity with both the advantages and the disadvantages of each technique being considered. This paper attempts to summarize the attributes and pitfalls of commonly used methods of tattoo removal to assist the surgeon in choosing the most suitable method.
