Our state-of-the-art laser tattoo removal treatment uses advanced picosecond technology to safely break down tattoo ink particles, allowing your body to naturally eliminate them. Whether you're looking to completely remove an unwanted tattoo or lighten it for a cover-up, our expert therapists deliver professional results with minimal discomfort and no scarring.
Our advanced Q-switched and picosecond lasers emit high-intensity light pulses that target tattoo ink pigments beneath the skin's surface. The laser energy shatters the ink particles into tiny fragments that your immune system can naturally process and eliminate over time. Different laser wavelengths target different ink colors, ensuring comprehensive removal of multi-colored tattoos. The surrounding skin tissue remains unaffected, making this the safest and most effective method for tattoo removal available today.
Unlike outdated removal methods, our laser technology offers superior results without damaging your skin. Most clients experience significant fading after just a few sessions, with complete removal typically achieved within 4-8 treatments depending on tattoo size, color, and age. The procedure is quick—most sessions take only 15-30 minutes—and requires minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately.
Before treatment, we use ice packs to cool and comfort the treatment area, helping to minimize discomfort during the procedure. For clients who prefer additional comfort measures, topical numbing cream is available as an optional add-on. During the session, you'll feel a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping against your skin—briefly uncomfortable but very tolerable with our standard ice pack cooling technique. The area may appear white or frosted immediately after treatment, which is a normal reaction indicating successful ink fragmentation. Following treatment, we apply a soothing cream and provide aftercare instructions. Most clients experience mild redness and swelling for 2-3 days, similar to a minor sunburn.
We can safely remove tattoos from virtually any area of your body, including arms, legs, chest, back, shoulders, neck, hands, and feet. Smaller, more delicate areas like fingers and behind ears require special attention but are equally treatable with our precision laser technology.
Results vary based on several factors including tattoo size, ink density, colors used, and your skin type. Black and dark blue inks respond best to treatment, while lighter colors like yellow and green may require additional sessions. Most clients notice significant fading after 3-4 treatments, with complete removal typically achieved in 6-10 sessions spaced 6-8 weeks apart. This spacing allows your body's immune system to naturally eliminate the fragmented ink particles between sessions.
Our clinic uses the latest generation of laser technology specifically designed for safe and effective tattoo removal. Our experienced therapists have successfully removed thousands of tattoos and understand the nuances of treating different ink types, skin tones, and tattoo styles. We provide honest assessments of what to expect, competitive pricing with no hidden fees, and comprehensive aftercare support throughout your removal journey.
Find answers to common questions about tattoo laser removal
Most clients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. We use ice packs before and during treatment to cool and comfort the area, making the procedure very tolerable for most clients. For those who prefer additional comfort, topical numbing cream is available as an optional add-on. The level of discomfort varies based on tattoo location, size, and individual pain tolerance, but the majority of our clients manage very well with our standard ice pack cooling method.
Most tattoos require 6-10 sessions for complete removal, though this varies significantly based on tattoo size, ink density, colors used, age of the tattoo, and your skin type. Professional tattoos with dense ink typically require more sessions than amateur tattoos. Black and dark blue inks respond fastest, while bright colors like yellow, green, and turquoise may need additional treatments. During your consultation, we'll assess your specific tattoo and provide a realistic estimate.
When performed correctly with professional laser equipment, tattoo removal should not cause scarring. Most tattoos can be removed completely or faded to the point where they're barely visible. However, if your original tattoo caused scarring during application, that scarring will remain after removal. We use advanced technology that targets only the ink particles while leaving surrounding skin tissue intact, ensuring the best possible cosmetic outcome.
Pricing varies based on tattoo size and complexity. Small tattoos (5cm x 5cm) start from R550 per session, medium tattoos (10cm x 10cm) cost R750-R1,200 per session, and larger tattoos are priced accordingly. We offer package deals for multiple sessions, which provide better value. During your free consultation, we'll examine your tattoo and provide an accurate quote with no hidden fees.
We recommend spacing treatments 6-8 weeks apart. This interval allows your immune system to naturally eliminate the fragmented ink particles and for your skin to fully heal. Rushing treatments too close together won't speed up results and may increase the risk of complications. Some larger or more complex tattoos may benefit from 8-12 week intervals between later sessions.
Black, dark blue, and dark green inks respond best to laser treatment and are easiest to remove. Bright colors like yellow, orange, turquoise, and light green are more challenging and may require more sessions. Our advanced laser system uses multiple wavelengths to target different ink colors effectively. During your consultation, we'll examine your tattoo's specific colors and provide realistic expectations for removal success.
