Why Should I have Laser Tattoo Removal?
FAQ's
How Painful Is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Pain is subjective, but we make sure your treatment is as comfortable as possible for you. Before your laser tattoo removal procedure we will apply a topical anaesthetic cream to numb the area.
Some people compare the level of pain to be similar to the level experienced when getting the tattoo. You may feel a heating sensation, or experience an ‘elastic band snap’ feeling when the laser is applied to your skin.
How Many Sessions Does It Take To Remove a Tattoo?
It depends on the tattoo, the colours of the tattoo pigment, your skin tone, and how well your skin and body respond to the procedure. We advise a course of several treatments to get the best results. This will all be discussed during your consultation.
How Long Do You Need To Wait Between Laser Tattoo Removal Treatments?
This can depend on your skin tone but generally the time you need to wait between treatments usually falls between six to eight weeks. It can be longer for darker complexions.
How Long Does It Take To Recover From Laser Tattoo Removal?
There is no downtime involved and you can go back to your normal daily routine immediately. However, you may experience reddening of the skin for up to 24 hours after treatment. Some clients experience slight blistering of the skin for up to a week post treatment.
Will It Actually Work?
We can achieve dramatic results with our Q-Switched laser and it is possible to completely remove the appearance of tattoos from the skin. However, some stubborn tattoos may still be visible after treatment – though they should have faded considerably. This is all due to pigments used, your skin tone, and the absorption rate of the fragmented ink into your immune system. When you come in for your consultation we can discuss the results we feel may be achievable with your own specific tattoo.
