Are you confused how to deal with tattoos named old lover? American chemists have developed a series of smart colors that can disappear with just one laser treatment.

Laser treatment is still used to remove unwanted tattoos, but it usually involves multiple stages of complexity. The process is expensive, painful and sometimes does not remove the tattoo.

New technology by US chemists that use inks has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for use in medicines, cosmetics, food and medical devices. Because this ink is easily absorbed by the body, it has never been used in tattoos.

The team led by Rox Anderson at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston found a way to overcome this limitation by squeezing in tiny microscopic particles of about 1-3 micrometers in diameter. These particles will be injected into the skin resulting in tattoos. To remove unwanted shapes, the laser detaches the bead, pouring the dye into a safe place and it will gradually fade.
