How Laser Tattoo Removal Works

The process of tattoo removal begins with the application of specific wavelengths of laser light, which are selectively absorbed by the tattoo pigments in the skin. Different colours of ink absorb different wavelengths, which is why we utilise various lasers tailored to your particular tattoo.

When the laser energy is directed at the skin, it creates a series of rapid pulses that generate heat, causing the ink particles to shatter into smaller fragments.

Breaking Down Pigment for Removal

Once the ink is fragmented, the body’s natural immune system takes over. The small ink particles are gradually engulfed and removed by macrophages—specialised cells that act as the body’s defence mechanism.

This process occurs over several weeks, as the body continues to clear the shattered pigment through the lymphatic system. It is important to understand that multiple treatment sessions may be required, depending on the size, colour, and depth of the tattoo, as well as individual skin types.

Why Choose Laser Removal?

Skin Cancer Affects Individuals of Any Age

Laser tattoo removal offers significant advantages over other removal methods. Unlike surgical excision or dermabrasion, laser treatments are non-invasive, minimising the risk of scarring and infection. Additionally, lasers can effectively target unwanted ink without damaging the surrounding skin, making it a safer option for tattoo removal.

Our specialised laser technology ensures that you receive a personalised treatment plan, designed to achieve the best possible results with as little discomfort as possible.

Our medical laser tattoo removal services combine advanced technology with expert care to help you regain clear skin. Whether you wish to remove a tattoo completely or fade it for a cover-up, we are here to guide you through the process with professionalism and compassion.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does tattoo removal work?

Laser tattoo removal uses light energy to target tattoo pigments beneath the skin. The laser breaks the ink into smaller particles, which your body’s immune system naturally clears over time.

When will I see results?

You’ll notice gradual fading of the tattoo after each session. Full removal typically requires multiple treatments, depending on the tattoo’s size, age, and ink colour.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments varies based on factors like ink colour, depth, and size. Most tattoos require 6–12 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart for optimal results.

What does a tattoo removal treatment involve?

Dr. Evans begins with a consultation to evaluate your tattoo and skin type. During the procedure, the laser is directed at the tattoo, breaking down the ink particles. The entired tattoo is treated during each laser session. 

What skin concerns does tattoo removal address?

This treatment is ideal for individuals who wish to:

  • Fully remove unwanted tattoos.
  • Fade tattoos in preparation for a cover-up.
  • Improve the appearance of tattooed areas.

Does it hurt and is there any downtime?

The procedure is often compared to the feeling of a rubber band snapping against the skin. Any discomfort is brief and manageable. Prior to treatment a topical anaesthetic agent which can be purchased over the counter at a pharmacy is applied to the skin. This application significantly reduced any discomfirt experienced during the procedure. Post-treatment, there may be slight redness or swelling, which subsides within a few days. Most clients can resume normal activities immediately.

Are there side effects?

Side effects are typically mild and include temporary redness, burning sensation, swelling, or sensitivity in the treated area. In rare cases, slight pigmentation changes may occur but usually resolve over time.

What precautions should I take pre and post treatment?

  • Pre-treatment: Avoid sun exposure and tanning on the treatment area for at least two weeks prior. Appliy topical anaesthetic to the tattoo and cover with a plastic dressing between 45 – 60 minutes prior to your treatment. This significantly reduces any discomfirt throughout the procedure. 
  • Post-treatment: Keep the area clean, avoid direct sun exposure, and follow Dr. Evans’ personalised aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing.
