Tattoo Removal

There could be many reasons for possibly wanting your tattoo removed. From an optimistic outlook is you no longer want to be burdened with a tattoo you seriously regret. Some of the most common reasons for tattoo removal are:

  • The tattoo is holding you back from getting a job.
  • The tattoo is keeping you from goals you have set for yourself.
  • You feel it’s time to remove a tattoo that symbolizes hate or prejudice.
  • You want to remove tattoo(s) reminding you of a past love or hurtful emotional experience

No matter the reasons, Dermlaze skin laser centre extends our options of laser tattoo removal. The medlite laser targets the ink with pulses of highly concentrated light that break the ink into tiny fragments, which are then cleared away with your own immune system.

On contrary, laser tattoo removal isn’t all done with one treatment. Repeated laser treatments can penetrate to destroy the ink better and faster. Most tattoos average 5 to 15 treatments for full removal - some longer and rarely removed completely after one visit. Certain ink colours are harder to remove and require more sessions. Because it is your body that actually breaks down the ink, every person's removal process will be different.

Common Questions

Are tattoos completely removed?

After treatments, most tattoos are considerably improved, and many are completed removed. Some areas may show a "shadow" of the former tattoo, which gradually clears after repeated treatments. Some tattoo pigment colours are more easily removed than others.

Does the laser work on tanned or different skin colours?

On average, the procedure takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on the area to be treated.

What must I do after the laser tattoo removal?

Patients are advised to apply Vitamin E and sun block to the treated area for 1-2 weeks. It is important to protect your skin from the sun using sunscreen with an SPF 15 or higher rating. Follow up care should include the use of sun blocks on a daily basis.
