A laser-based treatment that gradually fades unwanted tattoos by breaking down ink particles.
Why Consider Tattoo Removal?
Tattoos can be meaningful when first created, but over time, feelings and circumstances may change. For women who no longer want their tattoo, or simply wish to lighten it for a cover-up, laser tattoo removal offers a safe and effective way to gradually fade the ink without surgery.
It’s about giving yourself the freedom to choose a fresh start for your skin.
How Does It Work?
Tattoo removal uses specialised lasers that deliver short, powerful bursts of light energy. This energy:
- Targets tattoo ink while minimising damage to surrounding skin
- Breaks down ink particles into smaller fragments
- Allows the body’s natural processes to gradually clear away the pigment
Different laser wavelengths can be used to target various ink colours, including black, blue, red, and green.
What Happens During a Session?
- Before: Your tattoo will be assessed to determine the number of sessions needed.
- During: A laser device is passed over the tattoo. You may feel a snapping sensation on the skin, similar to a rubber band flick. Sessions usually last 10–30 minutes depending on tattoo size.
- After: Redness, swelling, or scabbing may occur. The area will need proper aftercare as it heals.
What Kind of Results Can You Expect?
- Gradual fading of tattoo ink over several sessions
- Some tattoos may lighten significantly, while others may not fully disappear depending on colour and depth
- Best outcomes achieved with multiple treatments spaced weeks apart
- Final results vary based on tattoo size, age, ink type, and skin tone
Any Side Effects to Know About?
Laser tattoo removal is generally safe under medical supervision, but possible side effects include:
- Redness, swelling, or blistering in the treated area
- Temporary skin sensitivity or scabbing
- Rare risks such as scarring or pigment changes
This treatment may not be suitable for certain skin types, medical conditions, or during pregnancy.
