Procedure segment review
Depending on procedure, the Australian tattoo removal market is classified into laser procedures, surgical procedures, creams, and others. The laser segment is expected to possess high growth potential, owing to the shift in preference of individuals toward laser removal of tattoo rather than opting for surgical method, as it is a highly invasive and painful treatment. Laser procedure makes use of beam of light responsible for absorbing specific colors of ink. This light penetrates the skin and produces shockwave effect that dissolves the ink into smaller particles. These particles are identified as foreign to the body's immune system, thereby eliminating them from the body. Different types of lasers are available in the market, which include Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and Q-switched alexandrite laser. These lasers use a powerful burst of energy to shatter the pigments within a tattoo into tiny particles, which are then easily removed.The laser segment registered the fastest rate in 2018, followed by creams segment. This is attributed to the benefits offered by laser tattoo removal technology. For instance, this procedure involves no long-term damage, no skin color limitation, and lesser pain. However, each laser is responsible for targeting a different family of colors. Thus, key players are investing significantly to develop products that remove the entire spectrum of colors in fewer treatment cycles. Furthermore, the growth of the creams segment is driven wider availability of creams in Australia. In addition, creams are considered as least expensive option for tattoo removal. However, there are no significant evidence for permanent removal of tattoos using these creams. The best these creams can offer is fading or lightening of the tattoo.
