This week, Dr. Gavin Chan speaks on ABC radio about laser tattoo removal and the new 'reversible' tattoo ink that is about to be released. This new tattoo ink is permanent, but reversible. The tattoo ink is applied just like any other tattoo ink and is composed of biodegradable inks entrapped in microcapsules. Unlike normal tattoo ink particles, these can be ruptured and removed with only one laser tattoo session, as compared to 10 or more for normal tattoo inks that are professionally applied.
