WHAT IS LASER TATTOO REMOVAL?
Here are Garths we use the latest technology to remove unwanted tattoos. Laser tattoo removal is a safe, simple procedure that can produce great results.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The light produced by laser passes safely through the skin and breaks up the tattoo ink. The ink breaks into tiny particles that the body then disposes of naturally via the immune system.
IS LASER TATTOO REMOVAL SAFE?
Yes, laser tattoo removal is perfectly safe if carried out by a professionally trained practitioner. Garths Tattoo Removal Studio is fully insured and trained in using ND-YAG lasers. We have a completely separate and private facility for laser removal sessions.
Every customer is patch tested and will be given professional advice and aftercare instructions. Our procedures and work area have been inspected by a laser protection officer, so you can be assured of a clean and hygienic environment.
If you are planning to have your tattoo removed you should understand that whilst not painful, laser tattoo removal can be uncomfortable.
- Many tattoos cannot be completely removed – it’s quite common to have some ink left in the skin.
- Some colours do not fade as well as others.
- You should not have a tattoo removed if you are pregnant or you have a real or fake suntan.
how many sessions will i need?
Laser tattoo removal is carried out over a series of sessions. Every tattoo is unique in its reaction to lasering. We can never give an exact answer as to how many sessions it will take, but we will provide an estimate in your consultation meeting.
LASER TATTOO REMOVAL AFTERCARE
You may find that your skin becomes red and raised, but don’t worry as this will only last a short time. If it becomes uncomfortable try holding an ice pack to your skin.
In rare cases, you may have some slight bleeding before your skin scabs over. Use aloe vera gel or Vaseline to help it heal.
Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun. Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 1 week after treatment. Cover the area with clothing and use a sunscreen with at least SPF30.
You should avoid:
- picking or scratching the scab
- using soap or perfumed products on the area for the first 48 hours
- strenuous physical activities for a couple of days
- swimming and saunas until the scab has dropped off (they may slow the healing process)
