Our ND Yag Laser is a fast and effective treatment for the reduction or removal of both Tattoo's and Semi-Permanent Makeup. This is a non evasive treatment using a Long Pulse Laser that can penetrate deep into the skin, without the use of chemicals or needles. This laser works by targeting the dark pigment. When the ink particles absorb the energy from the laser beam, they instantly shatter into tiny fragments. Once the laser has broken the ink into smaller pieces, your body's immune system works to remove the ink over the following weeks during the healing process. Initially a patch test is carried out using 3 different settings to test that there will be no reaction. Following this each session is spaced at 6 weeks apart, to ensure complete healing. This isn't pain free, however numbing cream can be used on request. Often during treatment, a white frosting occurs over the areas treated by the laser. This usually becomes opaque after about 10 minutes. Aloe Vera Gel is applied directly to the treatment area, this will cool and reduce any discomfort. A sterile dressing is then applied and instructions on aftercare provided.

It is difficult to estimate exactly how many sessions would be required to completely remove a tattoo and in some cases this cannot be achieved due to the type and colours of ink used. Generally the removal of black ink provides the best results. Whereas colours such as blue and green are notorious for being more stubborn. This treatment is also suitable for partial removal if the intent is to recover them with a different design.

Tattoo removal starts from £40 a session, please contact us for an accurate quote.

All customers undergo a consultation, which includes a medical questionnaire and patch test 3 weeks prior to treatment.
