Laser tattoo removal is a procedure that uses high-intensity light beams to break up the pigments in a tattoo, allowing the body’s natural processes to gradually fade or remove the tattoo.

Laser tattoo removal works by targeting the tattoo ink with specific wavelengths of light that are absorbed by the pigment particles. The energy from the laser breaks down the ink into smaller particles, which are then gradually eliminated by the body’s immune system. Multiple laser sessions are usually required to achieve significant fading or complete removal of a tattoo. The number of sessions needed depends on various factors, such as the size, colour, and age of the tattoo, as well as the type of ink used.

Laser tattoo removal can cause little discomfort, often described as a sensation like being snapped with a rubber band or hot grease. At Medwest, we offer numbing creams or injection plus cooling devices to help manage the pain during the procedure.
