Your Tattoo Doesn't Have to Be Permanent.

Advanced, dermatologist-supervised tattoo removal with a personalised treatment strategy — because not every tattoo needs the same removal plan.

Every tattoo behaves differently. We first assess it before estimating treatment.

Not One-Size-Fits-All

Not Every Tattoo Removes the Same Way.

Two identical-looking tattoos can need very different treatment plans. Before we talk sessions, we look at what's actually in your skin.

C

Colour

Black clears fastest; some colours resist longer

D

Ink Density

Amateur vs. dense professional work

L

Location

Circulation varies by where it sits

S

Skin Type

Determines safe laser settings

T

Scarring

Existing tissue change affects the plan

R

Layering

Cover-ups hold more ink underneath

We don't start by counting sessions. We start by understanding your tattoo.
The Mechanism

How Laser Tattoo Removal Works

"The laser breaks the ink. Your body clears it."

This is why tattoo removal usually requires multiple, appropriately spaced sessions.

Self-Assessment

How Difficult Is Your Tattoo to Remove?

The Kirby–Desai Scale is a published clinical scoring system that considers six tattoo characteristics to help estimate treatment complexity. Answer below for a rough, personalised starting point.

This is an estimation tool, not a guarantee. Actual treatment requirements vary according to tattoo response and technology used.

Can Tattoo Removal Be Faster?

Standard Laser

For tattoos responding predictably to conventional laser treatment.

SINGLE PASS PER SESSION

The right starting point for most tattoos.

R20 / Multi-Pass

Selected tattoos may benefit from more than one carefully controlled laser pass during the same appointment.

PASS → WAIT ~20 MIN → PASS AGAIN, IF APPROPRIATE

May allow more pigment to be targeted during one treatment sitting. More passes are not automatically better.

CO₂ + Tattoo Laser

For selected dense, resistant or previously treated tattoos, CO₂ laser may be combined with the tattoo laser.

CO₂ LASER + PIGMENT LASER

May be considered when a tattoo has become difficult to clear with conventional treatment alone.

Faster Doesn't Mean More Aggressive.

Our goal is maximum safe pigment clearance while protecting the surrounding skin.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Significant fading may be possible, but complete removal cannot be guaranteed.

This depends on tattoo colour, ink density, location, skin type, layering and individual response.

Not for everyone. It is a multi-pass technique used in selected tattoos.

Combination treatment may be considered for selected resistant or previously treated tattoos.

Most patients describe quick snapping or stinging sensations. Comfort measures may be used.

All laser procedures carry some risk. Appropriate laser selection, parameters and aftercare help minimise complications.
