Laser Tattoo Removal

It depends on the tattoo’s size, colour, age, depth and location, and the type of ink. Most need 6 to 12 sessions, some fewer or more. At your consultation we assess your tattoo and give you a plan and an estimated timeline.

Most can be significantly faded or completely removed, but results vary from person to person. Black and dark blue typically respond best. Lighter colours like green, turquoise, yellow and white may need additional treatments or may not disappear completely. We also treat residual ink from past removal and ghosting after treatments.

Yes, some inks may turn darker under the laser, mostly light colours such as white, pink or beige, which are often used in permanent makeup. That is why a small test spot may be done first.

Most people compare it to the snap of a rubber band against the skin. Some discomfort is expected, but treatments are very quick, with cooling technology, and a numbing cream may be recommended for more sensitive areas.

Performed by experienced professionals with appropriate settings, it does not typically cause scarring. Following your aftercare is essential. Scarring from the original tattoo may still show once the ink is gone.

Redness, swelling and some blistering or crusting are common after a session, and usually settle as the skin heals. Some people get lighter or darker patches, which often fade with time but can sometimes last.

Follow your aftercare instructions, and don’t pick at blisters or crusts, which can lead to infection or colour changes. Protect the treated skin from the sun, and ask your provider for how long.

Generally 6 to 8 weeks. Your skin has time to heal and your immune system has time to clear the ink particles. Waiting often leads to better results and reduces the risk of complications.

Your price depends on tattoo size, ink colour, density, location and the number of sessions. At your complimentary consultation we assess your tattoo and give you a transparent quote.
