Tattoo Removal
This treatment uses the LUX Series tattoo removal laser device which is known for its outstanding ability to remove a variety of tattoo inks. The light is aimed at the unwanted tattoo, and then applied to the skin in pulses. This process allows the tattoo to absorb the light, which in turn shatters the pigments into tiny fragments. The fragments are then removed by the body's natural filtration system. The result leads to permanent fading of the tattoo, or removal of the tattoo altogether.
It is also important to note that the wavelengths of light used during treatment are specifically designed to be attracted only to the tattoo pigments, leaving surrounding healthy skin tissue untouched.
During this treatment, your skin therapist will conduct an thorough consultation and will assess and discuss with you the results you are likely to expect. Darker colours generally respond better to tattoo removal treatment however, your skin therapist will assess your suitability for treatment. The number of sessions a client may need depends on the size, age, quality and colour of the tattoo - sessions may range from 6-12+ in total. Sessions will generally be spaced at six week intervals, or more.
