What to Expect
Appointments are completely private and 1-2-1. I’ll walk you through each stage, check your comfort, and adjust the settings to suit your skin type and tattoo.
Before Your Appointment:
-
No sunbeds, tanning or fake tan
-
Avoid alcohol for 24 hours
-
Don’t moisturise or apply oils on the area
-
Apply numbing cream 90 mins before if you wish, and wrap in clingfilm
During Treatment:
You’ll feel a quick, warm flicking sensation as the laser pulses on the ink. I’ll check in constantly to keep you comfortable and calm. Sessions are short and straightforward.
Aftercare:
You might notice light redness or flaking for a few days — totally normal. I’ll send you home with full aftercare guidance and recommend products to help your skin heal beautifully.
How Laser Tattoo Removal Works
My advanced Q-switched Nd:YAG laser uses dual wavelengths that precisely target pigment in the skin. The energy breaks ink into tiny particles that your lymphatic system naturally removes over time.
✅ Targets ink safely without harming surrounding skin
✅ Suitable for most skin tones
✅ Minimal downtime – you can return to normal activities straight after
✅ Short treatment sessions (usually 10–30 mins)
✅ Great for tattoo fading before a cover-up
🎨 What Colours Can Be Removed?
Different tattoo colours respond differently to laser wavelengths.
-
Black ink – the easiest to remove; absorbs all wavelengths and fades fastest
-
Red, orange & yellow inks – respond to warm wavelength settings
-
Green & blue inks – more stubborn but fade gradually with modern lasers
-
White & pastel inks – reflect light and may need extra sessions
Every tattoo is unique — that’s why all clients start with a consultation and patch test to determine the safest and most effective treatment plan.
