Tattoo Removal

PicoMax Laser is the world’s most advanced tattoo removal laser technology that can address ALL colours. Using the PicoMax laser we can reduce the appearance and even in some cases remove unwanted tattoos over a series of sessions using a Picosecond Nd:YAG Laser.

Tattoo removal at Perfect Skin Solutions utilises the cutting-edge PicoMax laser technology, which works by breaking down ink particles into smaller fragments. These particles are then naturally absorbed into the bloodstream and safely eliminated from the body, leading to the gradual fading of the tattoo.

Here’s how it works:

  • The PicoMax laser operates in ‘picoseconds,’ emitting light energy at an incredibly rapid rate to minimize the risk of damage to surrounding skin tissue. This sets it apart from other lasers.
  • With its higher energy laser beams, the PicoMax clears pigmentation more efficiently, resulting in fewer treatment sessions.
  • This advanced laser can effectively target all tattoo ink colours, the easiest inks to treat are darker black and blue inks, however, with our laser, we are also able to treat all coloured inks.

To ensure optimal treatment, factors such as the tattoo’s age, type, pigment concentration, and depth are carefully evaluated during a patch test and consultation. Based on these assessments, the therapist determines the appropriate energy levels, spot sizes, and repetition rates for treatment.

During the treatment process, the laser penetrates the skin, targeting the ink and breaking it down. While some individuals may observe immediate results, most will experience a gradual fading of the tattoo over the healing period, typically spanning 8 to 10 weeks.

Recovery time following the procedure can vary from individual to individual. While some may experience minimal redness, others may contend with soreness for a period of time.

Immediately after the procedure, the treated skin area may exhibit side effects such as redness, swelling, and blistering. Applying a cold compress to the area can offer relief if needed. However, it’s important to avoid rubbing or scratching the affected skin.

Typically, the skin will begin to settle within 24 hours. During this time, it’s advisable to refrain from applying makeup or using any skincare products or masks that may irritate the skin.

FAQ

At Perfect Skin Solutions, we understand that laser tattoo removal can sometimes be uncomfortable. That’s why we prioritise your comfort throughout the process by using high strength creams.

It’s worth mentioning that the removal process is significantly quicker than getting a tattoo, and our therapists are adept at working swiftly and effectively. As your tattoo fades over sessions, many patients report a gradual increase in comfort with each subsequent appointment.

Together with our expertise and comprehensive training, we employ a meticulous points system to evaluate various factors including skin type, tattoo location, ink depth, and colours.

Based on this assessment, we provide tailored recommendations for the optimal number of treatments, which can range from 1 to 12 sessions.

While the PicoMax laser is effective in treating all tattoo pigments, it’s important to note that certain colours fade more easily than others.

Black ink tends to respond most favourably to treatment. Colours such as blue, green, purple, pink, orange, brown, and yellow typically fade significantly over multiple sessions, though complete removal cannot be guaranteed.

Through scheduling a consultation and patch test, our therapists can provide you with an honest assessment of the number of sessions needed and a realistic expectation of the outcome.
