On average, clients need 1 treatment every 6 - 8 weeks, over 3 - 15 sessions to achieve their desired clinical outcome. 

It is important to maintain realistic expectations during the treatment process and remember - laser tattoo removal is a journey which takes dedication and time. 

Every client and tattoo is unique and will respond differently to laser treatments.

Commonly, a tattoo takes 10 laser sessions to be completely removed, or 5 sessions to sufficiently fade the tattoo to allow for a cover-up.

There are many variables which can effect the amount of sessions needed - including; the saturation/colour/location/style/age of the tattoo, alongside personal health and lifestyle factors.

An estimate will be provided during the initial consultation with our laser tattoo removal specialist using the Kirby-Desai scale and a thorough individual assessment. 

The laser treatment itself is very quick, a session can take just mere seconds. However, there is some discomfort associated with the procedure - it is likened to being flicked with an elastic band.

Calming techniques, skin cooling methods and numbing cream can be used to maximise comfort during the laser session.

Laser technology has come along way in recent years, mediating the risk of causing damage to the surrounding skin. 

However, unfortunately, not everyone is a candidate for laser tattoo removal and like any aesthetic procedure, there are risks and side effects involved. 

Clients may notice redness, swelling, pinpoint bleeding, bruising and tenderness at the treatment site following the procedure. Occasionally, blisters and crusting may form in week 1 post treatment. Infection, hyper/hypo pigmentation and scarring are rare.

• The most important factor to avoid any complications during the laser tattoo removal process is to strictly follow the aftercare advise.
