Whether you want a tattoo gone completely, faded enough for a cover-up, or semi-permanent makeup corrected, laser tattoo removal breaks down the ink so your body can clear it naturally. The process takes multiple sessions, but it works. Darker inks respond best, and we will give you honest expectations at your consultation.
Book Your Laser Tattoo Removal Treatment
The laser targets tattoo pigment precisely while leaving surrounding skin intact. When done properly, it breaks down ink for natural elimination without scarring.
Remove tattoos that no longer fit your identity, lifestyle, or tastes, and feel comfortable in your skin again.
Effective on amateur and professional tattoos of different sizes and colours, plus semi-permanent makeup that needs correcting.
Fading an existing tattoo first gives a tattoo artist a much better canvas to work with for your new design.
Your first appointment is a consultation where we assess your tattoo's size, colours, age, and your skin type to give you realistic expectations on how many sessions you will need. We photograph the tattoo so we can track progress. During treatment, the laser delivers rapid pulses of light that shatter ink particles into fragments small enough for your body to eliminate. It does hurt, and most people compare it to hot elastic bands snapping against the skin. Sessions last 10 to 30 minutes depending on tattoo size. Straight afterwards, you will see a whitish frosting effect on the skin, followed by redness and swelling similar to sunburn. Blistering can happen and is normal. Your body clears the shattered ink over the following 6 to 8 weeks, which is why sessions are spaced that far apart. Most tattoos need 6 to 12 sessions for significant fading or removal. Darker inks respond most quickly.
With proper technique and aftercare, scarring is rare. Most people end up with clear or noticeably improved skin.
Black and darker inks fade most predictably. Professional tattoos generally respond more consistently than amateur ones.
We can remove or fade unwanted semi-permanent eyebrows, eyeliner, or lip colour that has migrated, discoloured, or just no longer suits you.
Circumstances change. Laser removal means you do not have to live with permanent reminders of past relationships, phases, or decisions.
