Laser and light
Tattoo removal
Laser tattoo removal planned as a series with clear expectations.
Overview
Laser tattoo removal breaks down ink so the body can clear it gradually. Multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart are the norm.
Ink colour, depth, age and placement all affect how a tattoo responds. Complete clearance cannot be promised.
We photograph progress with your consent so the series can be judged fairly.
