Top 4 Reason the Cutera Enlighten Laser Is Best for Removing My Tattoo

June 23rd, 2025 | By: Admin

The tattoo removal process has come a long way over the years. The Cutera Enlighten Laser is the next step forward in tattoo removal technology that offers high-quality elimination of a variety of ink colors at a faster pace.



Multiple Wavelengths


One of the reasons that the Cutera Enlighten Laser is the best laser treatment today for removing your unwanted tattoo is that it has multiple wavelengths. “Each wavelength is best for a particular set of ink colors,” shares Dr. Aron Gewirtzman, board-certified Dermatologist at Sanova Dermatology in Austin, Texas. Other lasers often are effective in treating a particular color of ink, but not as effective on other colors.  As most tattoos are colorful arrangements of several inks, a laser that’s only effective on some of those inks aren’t going to stand up to the competition.



Pulse Durations


Ink colors used in a tattoo aren’t the only consideration, but the depth that the ink colors sit at can also play a role in removal. The Cutera Enlighten Laser features two different pulse durations that allow the laser to get to the deeper inks and a variety of spot sizes.



Quick Appointments


The Cutera Enlighten Laser also has a fast start-up time and laser calibration.”When a patient decides that they want a tattoo removed, it stands to reason that they want the best possible results in the shortest period of time. The Enlighten laser has been shown to remove tattoos more completely and in fewer treatment sessions than traditional lasers used to remove tattoos in the past, thus fulfilling these goals,” explains Dr. Gewirtzman. This means that your appointment won’t be taken up with waiting on the laser, but will be focused on providing the tattoo removal treatment, letting you get on your way quicker.



Overall Treatment Time


As the Cutera Enlighten Laser provides effective treatment for a variety of ink colors at a variety of depths, this also means that results are seen at a quicker pace than with other lasers. This means that you’ll need fewer treatments to see the same results. In fact, some tattoos are barely visible after just two or three treatments.
