Laser Tattoo Removal

Permanent Tattoo Removal in Canterbury

Laser Tattoo Removal CANTERBURY

Our ND YAG laser emits a pulse of laser that is preferentially absorbed into certain colours of ink.

This light is too fast to be able to heat the tissues surrounding the ink and instead produces a “shock wave” effect that breaks the ink particles into smaller pieces. The body then recognises these particles as something to be removed and, using our body’s own natural elimination system, are taken out of your system and effectively removing the tattoo.

Laser Tattoo Removal FAQ

Who is NOT suitable for Tattoo Removal?
Clients with compromised immune systems or lymph system disorder and a history of poor wound healing and very dark to black skin as there’s a high risk of hypo-pigmentation occurring

The following contraindications apply:

  • cancer
  • pregnancy & breastfeeding
  • suntan/use of sunbeds
  • healing disorders such as those caused by diabetes, Mellitus, and lupus
  • history of keloid scarring
  • recent use of Roaccutane
  • immune, lymphatic system disorders.
What does this treatment feel like?
Most patients describe the sensation as similar to a hot pinprick or the flick of an elastic band. Whilst uncomfortable, most people tolerate the treatment well.

Your skin will most likely be red and feel like it has mild sunburn. This typically goes away after a couple of hours. At times and with certain inks, there may be mild blistering that usually heals in about a week. After each treatment, you will be given detailed instructions on how to care for your treated area.

How many treatments will I need?

Unfortunately, due to the nature of this procedure, it is impossible to predict exactly how many treatments it will take for complete results.

It could take as few as 3 treatments for an amateur tattoo or as many as 10 treatments for a professionally applied tattoo. How quickly your ink fades will depend on several factors, such as the colours of your tattoo, the type of ink used, how long the tattoo has been there, and how your body responds to the treatment.

Treatments would be every 6-8 weeks.

Pauline Riches

Wonderful and Professional

The staff were professional, reassuring and so down to earth! I have found the past beauty/skin care businesses are unfriendly and a bit scary, but definitely not with the two ladies today! I  am deffo coming back for more treatment and will recommend them to my friends.
