We understand that tattoo removal is a significant decision. That's why we focus on providing honest, realistic information about the process, expected outcomes, and recovery requirements.
Laser Tattoo
Removal
Complete tattoo removal using advanced Q-switched laser technology. Our systematic approach involves multiple sessions spaced appropriately to allow your skin to heal between treatments. The number of sessions required varies based on factors including tattoo size, ink colours, depth, and your skin's response to treatment.
Tattoo Fading
for Cover-Ups
If you're planning a cover-up tattoo, our laser fading service can lighten your existing tattoo to provide a better canvas for your new design. This process typically requires fewer sessions than complete removal and can significantly improve the quality of your cover-up tattoo.
Cosmetic
Tattoo Removal
We provide removal services for cosmetic tattoos, including microblading, eyebrow tattoos, and other permanent makeup applications. These procedures require specialised techniques due to the different pigments and application methods used in cosmetic tattooing.

Frequently Asked Questions
The number of sessions varies significantly based on factors including tattoo size, ink colours, depth, age, and your skin's response to treatment. Most tattoos require 6-12 sessions for complete removal, though some may need more or fewer treatments. We'll provide a realistic estimate during your consultation based on your specific tattoo.
Most clients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. Discomfort levels vary between individuals and depend on the tattoo's location and size. We use cooling techniques to enhance comfort during treatment, and sessions are typically brief.
We typically schedule sessions 6-8 weeks apart to allow your skin to heal properly and your immune system to process the broken-down ink particles. Rushing between sessions can increase the risk of complications and may not improve results.
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and mild discomfort in the treated area. Some clients may experience temporary changes in skin pigmentation. Serious complications are rare when proper aftercare instructions are followed. We'll discuss all potential side effects during your consultation.
Black and red inks typically respond best to laser treatment. Blue and green inks can be more challenging, whilst yellow and white inks are often the most difficult to remove completely. Our Q-switched laser system includes multiple wavelengths to address various ink colours, and we'll assess your specific tattoo during consultation.
Proper aftercare is crucial for optimal results and healing. This includes keeping the area clean and dry, avoiding sun exposure, not picking at scabs or blisters, and following specific wound care instructions. We provide detailed aftercare guidance and remain available for any questions during your healing process.
