Removal of Tattoos is a state of the art usage of lasers to direct energy at the ink in your tattoo for a fraction of a second. The laser energy passes harmlessly through the outer layer of your skin to target the tattoo ink directly. The laser fragments the ink into smaller components, which allows your body to absorb the ink and process it naturally.
Most colours of Tattoos can be removed completely. While some colors require more treatments than other colors, even the most challenging colors will usually fade to a point where they're nearly impossible to see.
This depends on the size, colour and place where tattoos are removed.
Pain is a personal thing that is different for each individual. Tattoo removal treatments are uncomfortable, but easily tolerable. They are also completed very quickly. Numbing cream is applied to make the treatment as comfortable as possible and get rid of post treatment inconvenience. Ice packs are also prescribed during post treatment.
Laser treatment is accurate. Some time part of a tattoo is removed so that you can have it redone correctly and have it look the way it should have to begin with.
Laser can remove following scars.
Surgical Scars
Post Trauma Scars
Skin Graft Scars
Tattoo Removal Scars

A treatment course of four Laser treatments is recommended for best results. Many patients notice an improvement after only one Laser treatment but for most effective results research shows four Laser treatments are optimum.
The area is treated using the Fractional Laser technology. This is done by Fractional pulses of laser light breaking down scar tissue to generate new healthy tissue. The result is smoother skin, more even in texture and lighter in colour thus reducing the appearance of the scar.
The Laser treatment takes approximately 30 minutes (the time will depend on the size of the area being treated) and we recommend four weeks between each of your treatments.
After the Laser treatment, the area is initially red and swollen. This will reduce over approximately 7 days and the scar reduces in appearance.
The Laser treatment is suitable for most skin types. It is not suitable for dark skins (classified as type 4, 5 or 6 using the Fitzpatrick scale).
The Laser treatment is the first and only fractional laser treatment clinically proven to improve the appearance of scars.
Lasers remove hair for good, giving a long-lasting, even permanent result. Your skin can get rid of unwanted hair that has bothered you for so long.Traditional hair removal methods, such as waxing, shaving, depilatory creams, plucking/tweezing, sugaring, and stringing provide only temporary results — some for fewer than 24 hours. Within hours or possibly days, you are back at it again, hunched over a magnifying mirror to tweeze out facial hair, running a razor over tender skin, or enduring painful waxing. To make it worse, these methods can often stimulate hair growth! Laser has advantage, Laser treatment does not let the hair grow out a few days before your treatments in order to get it to work, as you do with the other methods. Once you start working with Laser, you begin your life of being hair free where you want to be.
Hair removal lasers emit a light at a specific wavelength that is known to be absorbed by the pigment (color) in the hair follicle — without damaging the surrounding skin. The light is converted to heat energy, which in turn disables the hair follicle so that it does not produce another hair.
Advanced Contact Cooling System is used to protect outer skin during a laser hair removal treatment. The laser’s light emerges through a sapphire crystal window that is pressed against skin, to instantly remove the heat that gives a little pinch feeling as the laser pulses. Patients experience minimum discomfort during Laser Light treatment.
Removal of hair through Laser treatment safely treats any body part except for the small area inside the bony ridge of the eye socket.
