The tattoo

A large black and white tattoo on the upper back on Type II skin (fair, tans sometimes but often burns).

Fitzpatrick Type II is favorable: tolerates standard energy settings with minimal pigmentation risk.

The upper back is close to major lymph node clusters, which aids clearance.

Timeline

2 sessions over 2 months.

The laser

Coco Aesthetics treated this case with the Q-Plus C, a nanosecond Q-switch platform.

For black and white ink, it operates at 1064 nm with a pulse duration of 6 ns.
