Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is laser tattoo removal?Laser tattoo removal is a non-invasive procedure that uses advanced laser technology to break down tattoo pigment embedded in the skin. The laser energy targets the ink particles while leaving the surrounding skin unaffected, allowing the body to eliminate the fragmented pigments gradually.
-
How does laser tattoo removal work?The laser emits short pulses of energy absorbed by the tattoo pigment, causing it to break down into smaller particles. Over time, the body's immune system flushes out these particles, gradually fading or completely removing the tattoo.
-
Is laser tattoo removal safe?Yes, laser tattoo removal is considered a safe and effective method. However, undergoing treatment with a certified laser specialist or technician is crucial to minimize the risk of side effects and ensure optimal results.
-
How many sessions are typically required for complete tattoo removal?The number of sessions needed varies depending on tattoo size, colour intensity and ink type. On average, multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart are required to achieve significant fading or complete removal.
-
Does laser tattoo removal hurt?The sensation experienced during laser tattoo removal is often described as similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. However, most clients find the discomfort tolerable.
-
Are there any side effects associated with laser tattoo removal?While side effects are rare, some temporary effects may include redness, swelling, blistering, or mild discomfort in the treated area. These typically subside within a few days following the treatment.
-
How long is the recovery period after laser tattoo removal?The recovery period after laser tattoo removal is minimal. Clients can typically resume their daily activities immediately following the procedure. It is essential to follow post-treatment care instructions from your laser specialist to ensure optimal healing.
-
How much do sessions cost?Prices range from $100 - $600 per session with an in-person consultation required.
-
How often can I have sessions?As much as we would love to see you often, we always leave 6-8 weeks between sessions. This allows your body to break down the ink and reduces the amount of treatments you need.
-
Can I remove just a portion of a tattoo?Absolutely! This option is ideal for clients who want to accommodate coverups.
