Tattoos consist of ink particles embedded in the skin’s dermis layer. The Pico laser emits light energy that breaks these particles into smaller fragments, which are then absorbed and eliminated by the immune system. Multiple treatments are required to treat the various layers of ink particles that make up a tattoo.

Side effects are generally minimal but can include temporary redness, swelling, and whitening of the skin. These effects typically resolve within a few weeks. In some cases, especially with deep or heavily scarred tattoos, raised scarring may remain after the ink is removed.

Immediately after treatment, the skin will appear white and flaky, with redness and swelling around the treated area. These symptoms will gradually subside over time. Results can take up to 5 weeks to fully manifest.

Patients often describe the sensation as a slight sting like a rubber band snap. Most treatments do not require numbing, but a topical numbing cream is available for those who prefer it.

The number of treatments varies based on factors such as the tattoo’s location, depth, color, and size. Treatments are typically spaced 4-8 weeks apart to allow the body to remove the pigment effectively.

An individual laser tattoo removal session usually lasts between 10 and 20 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of the tattoo.

After each session, it’s normal to experience redness, swelling, and a white, flaky appearance on the treated area. These symptoms usually subside within a few days.

Yes, selective tattoo removal is possible. If you want to remove only a portion of your tattoo, our skilled technicians can precisely target specific areas, leaving the rest of the tattoo intact. This approach is often used for modifying or correcting existing tattoos.

Before your session, avoid sun exposure and tanning products, as they can increase the risk of complications. Keep the tattooed area clean and moisturised, but avoid applying any topical products immediately before the treatment. During your initial consultation, our technicians will provide you with detailed instructions to ensure you are well-prepared for your session.
