It's no surprise when someone with a tattoo wants it removed. After all, most people like to make changes to their appearance from time to time. If you have a tattoo, perhaps it's simply been there long enough. It's time to move on and the tattoo has to go.

Unlike other treatment methods, with laser treatment the surface of the skin is neither cut nor burnt. This minimises any risk of scarring. We use two advanced laser system known as a Q-switched Laser and Ruby Star Laser. These are the most effective and successful form of treatments available anywhere in the world for tattoo removal. The laser emits intense and extremely short pulses of light which are directed on to the tattoo. The laser light pulses break up the ink particles that form the tattoo, reducing them to minute fragments which are naturally absorbed through the body's own cleansing mechanism.

There are several other methods for removing tattoos; they involve using dermabrasion (wire brush), acids, plastic surgery (skin grafting) or chemical peels. These methods tend to be very painful, require a lengthy recovery period and frequently result in severe scarring
