FAQs
How does laser tattoo removal work?
Tattoo Removal uses targeted light pulses that penetrate the skin to break down dense ink pigment into tiny micro-particles. Your body's natural lymphatic system then gradually flushes these fragments away over the weeks following your treatment.
Will tattoo removal eliminate my tattoo completely?
Many tattoos fade significantly or completely, while others lighten enough to allow for a clean cover-up. The final result depends on factors like ink type, color depth, tattoo age, location, and individual skin response.
How many sessions will I need to fade or remove my tattoo?
Because tattoo ink is deposited in layers, removal requires multiple appointments spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart. On average, significant fading requires several sessions depending on size, ink density, and colors.
What is the recovery process like after a session?
You may experience temporary redness, swelling, mild sensitivity, or minor crusting in the treated area. These are normal signs that the body is processing the shattered ink particles and usually resolve within a few days with proper aftercare.
Do I need a consultation before booking tattoo removal?
Yes, a consultation is recommended. It allows our technicians to inspect the tattoo, assess skin health, perform a patch test, and provide an accurate estimate of the required sessions and expected outcomes.
