Body art is increasing in popularity. It is no surprise that a large percentage of the world’s population is adorned with ink. Tattoos are now common with all age groups, professions and many cultures. Tattooing often represents an important meaning for the owner of the tattoo, whether religious, spiritual, or artistic. Unfortunately, it is often the more youthful body art we later regret. What seemed like a good idea at the time can create issues later in life, including distress and limited employment opportunity.

Laser tattoo removal is a commitment in itself. Several treatments will be required to remove an unwanted tattoo. Depending on the ink pigments used, the number of laser sessions required will be determined.

A high intensity light beam is specifically targeted toward ink pigments of a tattoo, avoiding unnecessary damage to the skin. An experienced Precision Laser Therapy professional will utilise the latest technology available to break down the tattoo ink pigments. Over time, the body will break down these pigments further and dispose of them naturally.

Laser tattoo removal is aimed specifically at ink pigments, not the skin. The majority of tattoos will respond well to laser removal, while others can be faded.

Tattoos containing darker colours, such as black, dark blue and red are easier to treat, as opposed to lighter colours.  The common misconception is that lighter colours are easier to remove; however, yellows, light greens, purples and pinks have a lower light absorption and will require additional sessions, as these inks take longer to break down.

Some patients opt to fade the tattoo just for an effective coverup. A professional can discuss your options and tailor the amount of treatments required. The benefits are still the same, removing youthful mistakes without damaging your skin.

The pain that accompanies the removal of tattoos can be minimalised with expert care. During treatment a burning sensation is often reported, not too dissimilar to the process of tattooing. Topical anaesthetics can help to minimise the pain, and at Precision Laser Therapy we aim for an efficient and pain-free experience.

Although redness and swelling can occur, the precision of the laser means no scarring. After treatment and the healing process occurs, patients will experience a visibly cleaner, fresh skin. For tattoos containing stubborn inks, the tattoo will be noticeably faded for effective coverups and/or barely visible.

After a detailed consultation, an estimated amount of sessions required will be determined. The size and quality of the tattoo, the ink colours used, and the skin’s pigmentation will impact on the amount of treatments needed.

The layering of tattoos (multiple coverups) will most likely require additional laser therapy and hinder the removal process.

If the tattoo is new, the fresh ink pigments will take longer to break down in the body, and the pigments used will determine the difficulty of removal. The older the tattoo then the easier it is to remove.

Side effects of laser tattoo removal can include swelling around the site, possible blistering and redness. Just like the aftercare of a tattoo, maintaining correct aftercare of a removal is equally important. Limiting sun exposure by using a high SPF sunscreen and wearing protective clothing will speed up the healing process. Avoiding a hot shower for 48 hours also promotes healing.
