A tattoo is a modification of the skin color, creating a drawing, figure or text made with ink or some other pigment injected under the epidermis of an individual. The purpose of this procedure is to try to remove the tattoo or make a decorative pattern as unrecognizable as possible, lightening the pattern of the pigment. Normally it requires several sessions, which depend on factors such as the color of the tattoo pigment, whether it is a "professional" tattoo or not, the interval of each session is around 4 to 6 weeks, a period that takes the elimination of the pigment through the lymphatic system by a process of phagocytosis. The procedure is fast and proportional to the surface of the tattoo. It causes discomfort that is attenuated with ice and if necessary topical anesthetic
