The decision to have a particular design, or the message that their design implies, may no long be appropriate due to lifestyle changes as we get older.
An unwanted tattoo can be more than just unsightly, they can have an impact on a person’s confidence, as well as their relationships.
For some people, their tattoos may still be attractive but they are located in the wrong place – meaning tattoo cover-ups do not solve the problem.
Regardless of the reason for the dislike of your tattoo, if you are unhappy you may want to consider permanent laser tattoo removal.

Is Laser tattoo Removal More Effective than Other Treatments?
In recent years, technological advancements have enabled laser tattoo removal to become a safe and effective option.
Tattoo removal creams are often inefficient and may only remove parts of a tattoo, which can potentially leave the area looking even more unattractive.
Meanwhile other removal methods, such as surgical tattoo removal, can often be painful and carry a risk of scarring.
Laser tattoo removal is a safe, proven treatment that delivers desirable results. In as little as six sessions, your tattoo can be permanently removed.

The trend of having laser tattoo removal has become increasingly popular over the last few years, as highlighted through the media. Celebrities such as pop singer Beyonce, actress Melenie Griffith and designer Victoria Beckham are just some of the celebrities who have sought our laser tattoo removal to change their regrettable body art.
The number of sessions required, and how effective laser tattoo removal will be, varies from person to person. Prior to undergoing any treatment you would first of all need to have a consultation, where we will be able to assess the tattoo size, density and the colours used. Our practitioners will then be able to tailor a treatment plan specifically to you. The initial consultation is essential to discuss these elements with medically qualified practitioners, allowing us to ensure your tattoo is removed in the safest, most efficient way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Patients often have a lot of questions before beginning treatment for laser tattoo removal. Here are a selection of our most frequently asked questions to help you understand the treatment in more detail.
How many treatments will i need?
We usually advise a minimum of 6-10 treatments will be necessary, usually around 4-8 weeks apart. However this does vary from person to person depending on the size of the tattoo, the colours involved and the depth of the ink. We will be able to design a specific treatment plan for you at your consultation.
Does it hurt?
The treatment itself produces a slight stinging sensation, which can be uncomfortable but subsides following treatment. Patients have reported that the sensation is similar to that of an elastic band being pinged against the skin. However it is not a painful treatment.
Is there any post-treatment procedures i need to follow?
We advise wearing a high SPF on the area to protect it from sun exposure. We recommend Heliocare SPF 50. In the 24 hours following treatment you should avoid sun exposure entirely. We also advised that you keep hydrated.
How does laser tattoo removal work?
Laser tattoo removal works by targeting the ink blobs within a tattoo, and breaking them down into tiny fragments. These fragments are then dispersed and absorbed by the blood stream. You can find more information about how laser tattoo removal works here.
