We use a Medical Grade N:D YAG laser, which is one of the most effective methods for tattoo removal. The laser produces a high powered beam of laser light at a speed that is too fast to heat the skin, the very short pulse of light penetrates the skin without breaking it and is absorbed by the tattoo ink particles. The ink particles are then broken down into smaller pieces; your body’s immune system recognises these particles as something that shouldn’t be there and removes them naturally via the body’s own natural elimination system. Gradual fading of the tattoo occurs over a series of treatments and under normal conditions, the process which breaks down the tattoo ink begins two weeks after the laser treatment. The ink will continue to evacuate the body for approximately 4-6 weeks. For this reason, treatments are scheduled no closer than 6 weeks apart.
