LASER TATTOO REMOVAL GEELONG

Clean Slate, Fresh Start - Erase the Past Today!

Tattoos have been a part of human history for centuries, each carrying unique personal significance. However, many individuals eventually seek removal for various reasons. With the latest state-of-the-art technology, it is now possible to safely and effectively restore clear skin, providing the freedom to move forward without unwanted ink.

How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?

When tattoo ink is injected into the skin, a needle repeatedly punctures the skin so that the ink can be injected into the deeper layers of the skin. Our body naturally produces white blood cells to assist in the healing of this wound, however because of the size of the ink particles, the white blood cells are not able to clear the ink away, which is how a tattoo remains under your skin. 

The Cutera Enlighten system utilises an advanced Pico-second laser technology, recognised as the gold standard in tattoo removal. 

This cutting-edge technology delivers precise laser energy to fragment ink particles into smaller pieces, allowing the body's lymphatic system to naturally eliminate them. 

Through a series of treatment sessions, the laser progressively breaks down the ink, leading to the gradual fading and eventual removal of the tattoo.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

The number of laser tattoo removal sessions needed depends on various factors, including the tattoo's location, size, type of ink, colour’s used, ink depth, and complexity.

On average, we estimate about 8 to 10 sessions, but the exact number will vary based on these factors.

Can You Completely Remove a Tattoo with Laser?

In most cases, yes you can achieve full clearance. However, all tattoos are different so this can vary depending on each person, and sometimes there can still be some shadowing left behind. As the ink is broken down, and further absorbed into the lymphatic system tattoos can continue to break down further over the months and years following tattoo removal treatment.

Can you treat tattoos of all colours?

The Enlighten laser uses two different wavelengths (532nm and 1064nm) to be able to target different ink colours.

FAQs about Laser Tattoo Removal

Does laser tattoo removal hurt? Plus

The Enlighten from Cutera does feel more comfortable than other tattoo removal devices, however the treatment can still feel slightly uncomfortable depending on the location of the tattoo. 

Our experienced Dermal Clinicians will work with you to ensure appropriate measures are taken to minimise discomfort, which can include the use of numbing cream, cooling devices and/or ice packs. With these measures in place, clients find the treatment tolerable - and the results motivating!

Does laser tattoo removal leave a mark or scar? Plus

Tattoo removal with the Cutera Enlighten device is safe for all skin types. We usually would not expect any scarring to be left behind as a result of the laser tattoo removal, providing you follow the aftercare instructions. 

Can you remove just one section of a tattoo? Plus

Yes, our laser is very precise so it can be used to remove smaller sections of your tattoo if this is required. 

Do I need a consultation before laser tattoo removal? Plus

During your initial appointment, your clinician will conduct a thorough consultation to discuss the process, frequency of the treatment  as well as pre and post care you will require.
