“…However, keloids are not known to favor a specific color ink, and it would have been unlikely for them to remain confined to only two focal areas within the tattoos. Keloids have been reported to occur within tattoos after laser hair removal of the tattooed area (Kluger et al, 2009).…”

Zusammenfassung Die Pr?valenz von T?towierungen (TT) und Body Piercings (BP) ist im letzten Jahrzehnt weltweit sprunghaft angestiegen. Aus diesem Grund besch?ftigen die mit beiden Praktiken h?ufig einhergehenden unvorhersehbaren Komplikationen, wie medizinische Folgeerscheinungen, aber auch psychische und behaviorale Aspekte, zunehmend Mediziner und Psychologen. Eine Rundschau aktueller Forschungsergebnisse zum Thema.

“…The concern is two‐fold: (i) optical treatment of a tattoo might result in fading of the tattoo and (ii) absorption of the photons by tattoo ink could reduce the efficacy of hair removal and/or cause adverse effects of burning, pigment changes or scarring because of the inappropriate use of laser or IPL parameters, such as insufficiently short pulse duration (milliseconds). It is therefore advisable to avoid treating skin for hair removal when a tattoo is present in this area 49–51 …”

In the past 5 years since their US introduction, there has been a rapid proliferation of light-based hair removal devices intended for home-use. In the last 2 years in Europe, sales already run into many tens of thousands of units with well-known multi-national companies entering the market. These guidelines provide a definition of light-based home-use technology, to inform healthcare professionals about home-use light-based technology and encourage manufacturers wishing to sell in Europe to adopt 'best practice'. The review presents the current status on standards and regulation issues and considers home-use safety issues, encompassing human, device and electrical safety, given risks to the eyes and skin from optical radiation both to the consumer and persons in the vicinity.Proposed technical measurement methodology is considered with focus on recognized critical parameters for the safe use of light-based hair removal technology including recording the technical performance and safety claims of a range of home-use hair removal devices. The literature review emphasizes potential adverse incidents and safety aspects of treating cosmetic conditions, such as unwanted hair growth. Although some regulations exist, they differ from region to region and there is a specific need for international common principles and guidelines relating to the manufacture, marketing and use of intense pulsed light and laser devices, including manufacturing standards for home-use products intended, amongst others, for cosmetic hair removal and photo-rejuvenation procedures. In these guidelines, the European Society for Laser Dermatology (ESLD) provides a professional view of what 'best practice' may imply for manufacturers and consumers alike.
