Tattoos stay because the ink particles are too big to be carried away by your cells’ garbage disposal mechanisms.

The laser doesn’t remove the ink, just heats it up and breaks apart the pigments into smaller bits. These pieces are then small enough to be carried away. They’re absorbed into the body and eventually excreted.
