Tattoo Removal
Tattoo removal is a non-surgical laser treatment that targets tattoo pigment so your body can naturally break it down and clear it. It’s a safe, precise way to fade or remove unwanted ink — or lighten it for a cleaner cover-up.

What is a skin peel?
Tattoo Removal is a process that uses advanced laser technology to selectively target tattoo ink particles without damaging surrounding skin. Over time, your body clears the shattered pigment via the lymphatic system, leading to progressive fading between sessions.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
- Selective photothermolysis: Ultra-short pulses target pigment only.
- Fragmentation: Ink particles are broken into tiny pieces.
- Natural clearance: Your immune system gradually removes the debris over weeks.
- Course of sessions: Spaced 6–10+ weeks apart for safe, steady fading.
Results
After the peel, your skin will feel smoother and look refreshed. You’ll notice improvements in texture and tone, with results typically lasting a few weeks. A series of treatments might be recommended for the best results.
- Gradual fading over 6–12 weeks after each session.
- Black and dark inks typically respond best.
- Lighter or stubborn colours may need additional sessions.
- Some ghosting or faint shadow may remain after treatment.
TREATMENT PROCESS
The treatment process includes three main steps:
Assessment, medical history, informed consent.
Cleansing; optional numbing and/or cooling.
Brief pulses over the tattoo; mild stinging or heat is common.
Cooling, dressing if required, and aftercare instructions.
