Laser Tattoo Removal Treatment Care
Pre-Treatment Care
- Completely clean the skin and shave the area 24 hours before the laser tattoo removal treatment.
- Keep the treatment area protected and avoid sun exposure as much as possible for at least 2-3 weeks before the procedure.
- Do not use products that can cause photosensitivity such as salicylic acid, retinol or benzoyl peroxide.
- Remove any lotion, oils, makeup or creams on the tattoo area.
Post Treatment Care
- Avoid infection by keeping the area moist with antibiotic ointments that have been prescribed by your doctor.
- Take antihistamines as prescribed to reduce itching and refrain from scratching the treated area.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the laser tattoo removal procedures safe?
The pulses of light from the laser will only be used to target the tattoo pigments on the top layers of your skin. We will also test your skin’s reaction to determine which is the most effective laser technology for your tattoo and skin type. Additionally, before your treatment session, you will receive a pair of eye shields to protect your eyes from the laser beams.
Will laser tattoo removal hurt?
Will the tattoo completely disappear?
For most of the clients that we have treated, yes. However, we must emphasise that due to the spectrum of tattoos available in the market now (such as type, depth, colour of ink, etc.), it is difficult for us to predict how much of the tattoo we can lighten. Over-tattooing is a common method for covering up old tattoos. However, it may require extra laser treatments to remove both inks. Many tattoo artists recommend fading the old one before covering it up with a new tattoo to reduce its visibility. We welcome advice from your tattoo artist about the desired degree of lightening, and about the exact elements that should be lightened or eliminated.
What sort of side effects might I experience?
Most of our clients do not report any side effects, but some may experience hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, blistering, keloids, infection and a lack of complete pigment removal. However, these occurrences are few and far between. If you do experience any of these symptoms, reach out to our team for professional guidance.
What is the duration of each appointment?
The length of each session is contingent on the size and number of colours the tattoo has. Please contact us for more personalised advice.
