Tattoo Removal at its most advanced

The laser treatment works by vibrating and breaking down the ink particles in the tattoo. As the area heals, the body's immune system flushes away the shattered ink particles, causing the tattoo to fade with minimal risk of scarring or hypopigmentation.

Tattoo Removal In Action

During laser tattoo removal, the tattoo pigment is shattered by heating it to very high temperatures, yet traditionally, high temperatures can increase the risk of scarring the skin. With Q-switch, we are able to obtain high energetic pulses from a laser that only last for a nanosecond to rapidly heat and shatter the tattoo pigment, thus decreasing the risk of scarring. 

What Tattoo's Can Be Lasered

Having a tattoo removed is just as personal of a decision as deciding to get a tattoo. Whatever your reasons, you deserve to have your tattoo removal process be as smooth and effective as possible;

• Black & White colours removed
• Coloured tattoo removal
• Faded tattoo removal
• Multi layered tattoo removal
• Any Size tattoo can be lasered

Treatment Areas

The treatment uses a Q- switched Nd-Yag laser which is made to specifically target different colours and wavelengths. When the laser energy is applied to the pigment for the right amount of time, with the correct wavelength, the pigment is targeted. The surrounding skin is left unharmed and not effected by the laser treatment.

A lot of machines can only target certain wavelengths, can only effectively treat black or dark coloured ink or are ineffective at treating variants of red. Sometimes different lasers are needed to treat difficult pigment colours such as red, orange and green. 

This is what makes Harmony XL Pro Tattoo removal so unique, as it uses one handpiece with different applicator tips to target different colours and can also treat those more difficult pigments. Alma Q- switched ND – Yag has double the power of other q- switched lasers.

About Laser Tattoo Removal

That depends on the size, age and location of the tattoo. Some large tattoos are so big they can’t be covered in one session, thus requiring more appointments. Also, older tattoos are harder to remove as over time the pigment goes deeper within the skin.

1-45 mins, depending on the size of your tattoo. For example, a tattoo that is a black, 5x5cm square would take 2-3 mins to complete.

6-12 weeks. Tattoo removal is without a doubt, a slow process, if done correctly and respected. It is essential to allow your skin to heal properly inbetween each treatment. The longer you are able to leave inbetween treatments, the better, as the treatment continues to eat away at pigment and it's much kinder to your skin. Patience is needed if you're undergoing tattoo removal!

Absolutely! With Alma's Harmony XL Pro platform, it has different nibs for specific colours! We will always set realistic expectations before you commence any treatments.

tattoo removal can be painful however it is a very quick treatment. We usually say that if you were able to have a tattoo, you will be able to handle tattoo removal. A medium or large tattoo can be treated in a matter of minutes.

During treatment, you will feel a hot zapping sensation which will only last while the area is being treated. This can be likened to the sensation of a hot elastic band being snapped against the skin. There may be some heat in the area after being treated but this will dissipate quickly. In your first few sessions, there will be some frosting. 

Each treatment becomes less painful as we break down the pigment.

This happens when the cells holding the ink pigment rupture, water is released from the skin and comes up to the surface which causes the frosting. This is temporary and can be wiped away gently after treatment. It does not affect your treatment nor is it necessary to have frosting for the treatment to be effective. 

You may get some blistering, scabbing and heat in the area for a while after treatment. 

Although this may look worrying it is a normal part of tattoo removal and will go. They are a normal response and are a good sign that your body’s natural healing response is working well! Dry or paraffin Gauze dressing may be used to cover the area if needed but this is mainly to keep the area safe from clothes rubbing against the area. You should let the area heal and avoid touching it. 

Absolutely, yes! Permanent, Semi Permanent or Microblading can be removed usually within 4 treatments.
