Tattoo Removal

Laser Tattoo Removal is a medical process that employs light energy in the form of lasers to help erase unwanted tattoos. It is capable of effectively and safely removing a wide range of colours and inks. The laser tattoo removal process uses light energy to erase or fade tattoo ink. The tattoo ink quickly absorbs the laser light and breaks it down into smaller bits without harming the surrounding cells and tissues. The body's filtration processes then drain away these smaller grains.

This method provides the following benefits: treatment sessions are shorter duration (often 15 to 30 minutes), scarring is a very low probability, and permanently eliminates a wide range of tattoo inks and pigmentation. To prevent discomfort, the procedure is carried out after the administration of numbing cream. Some patients describe the pain as minimal as snapping a rubber band. Depending on the properties of the tattoo pigment and the patient's desires, multiple treatment sessions may be required.
