Tattoo Removal & Pigmentation
The ND:Yag Q-Switched laser is the only effective tattoo removal treatment for erasing unwanted tattoos or removing benign pigmented lesions without scarring.
During skin pigmentation treatments photons of light are selectively absorbed by the tattoo ink or pigmentation (melanin). This sudden increase in temperature causes the ink/pigmentation structure to shatter. The body\’s own immune system removes the shattered pigment.
How many treatments will I need?
This varies person by person. Amateur tattoos can usually be removed in 3-4 treatments with professional tattoos taking 6- 12 treatments. While skin pigmentation treatments can take anything from 3-8 sessions.
Does it hurt?
Tattoo removal treatment and skin pigmentation treatment are relatively painless. To ensure client comfort we use a “chiller” machine that blows cold air onto the area being treated to ensure no discomfort is felt.
How often will I need to come for treatment?
Every 4 – 8 weeks or until the skin is completely healed.

Directly after tattoo removal treatment there will be some redness, the skin will appear to have white bubbles, and there will be a small amount of swelling.

How will my tattoo look directly after treatment?
