All about laser tattoo removal
  • laser treatment
  • surgical excision 

Some tattoo colours are easier to remove than others as well, for example:

  • black
  • brown
  • dark blue
  • green

Larger, professional tattoos are typically more time-consuming to remove than smaller ones. There are also some factors that may harden the process due to the risk of side effects:

  • darker skin type
  • skin conditions, for example, eczema

These factors mean that you may need to take more time to find the best removal option for you!

Most experts consider that laser removal is the most successful and cost-effective way! Today, most tattoos are removed with a Q-switched laser, which sends out energy in one strong pulse. Tenergy pulse energy heats up the ink in your skin to dissolve it. For complete removal, you will need several laser treatments over weeks or months. Older or less complex tattoos will require fewer sessions, while newer or more complex tattoos will require more. If you have darker skin, you may be suggested after the consultation to use another laser technology, which is less likely to change the dark pigment of your skin.

In general, it takes about 7-10 sessions to remove a tattoo using a laser procedure, and for best results, you’ll have to wait for 6-8 weeks between sessions.

After each session, you’ll be given recommendations regarding the proper care of the area. These include the application of the antibacterial cream to your skin for some time, which will help reduce the risk of infection. 

2 weeks after the appointment:

  • Keep the skin clean and dry.
  • Wear loose clothes to avoid skin irritation.
  • Avoid exposing the area to direct sunlight.
  • Don’t pick any scabs to avoid getting unsightly scars.

Laser tattoo removal has a lower risk of scarring than other removal options; just be sure not to pick at the area as it completely heals.

It takes 4 weeks for the body to start breaking down the pigment and even though the tattoo may look healed, it is not. The process of removing the ink from your body takes 4-6 weeks, so getting treated sooner will not make the tattoo remove any faster and can only increase the risk of scarring.
