Abstract

Traumatic tattoos can be treated with several methods, including mechanical and chemical devices. However, they are rarely used due to the high risk of permanent side effects such as scarring and depigmentation.

Herein, we reported three cases of traumatic facial tattoos successfully treated with combined PDL and QS Nd:YAG laser.
