Tattoo removal A tattoo used to be a permanent and irreversible adornment to one's skin. However, there are now effective techniques to successfully remove unwanted tattoos.
There are a lot of reasons for wanting a tattoo removed – symbolic, social, cultural or professional reasons. Those who obtain tattoos in their teens or young adulthood may suffer embarrassment years later when their lives change. Let us unburden you from the ink that you no longer find appealing or presents a barrier in your life.
Let us help. Today, lasers are the most common method of tattoo removal from any body area. We use the
Q Switch Nd:YAG laser system to break up tattoo pigments and gradually clear the tattoo over multiple sessions. It permits the removal of most tattoos – especially black or darker-coloured inks - with a very low risk of scarring.
The number of sessions required for tattoo removal depends on the size, how uniform the depth of the ink is, whether certain coloured inks are used and how old the tattoo is, among other factors.

How does the laser remove tattoos?
It works by targeting the ink with pulses of highly concentrated light that break the ink into tiny fragments, which are then cleared away the your own immune system. The more treatments you have, the more the laser can penetrate to destroy the ink.
