- textural changes occur in some cases but will often resolve within a few months.
Do I Need a Test Patch?
After your consultation we will conduct a test patch on your tattoo. This will provide information on how your skin reacts to the laser and the parameters to treat you within. This particularly important for darker skin types (4-6). This will also give you an opportunity to experience the laser and decide if application of topical anesthetics is suitable.
Post-Operative Guidelines
- Avoid excessive heat in the skin;
- Avoid strenuous exercise;
- Avoid hot showers/baths, sauna etc for 24-48 hours;
- Avoid exposing the treated are to the sun;
- Use SPF 30+ on sun exposed areas and wear protective clothing;

- If the treated area begins to itch Bepanthen cream or Pawpaw ointment can be applied to relieve symptoms;
- If blistering occurs do NOT puncture them;
- If crusting or oozing occurs continue to apply Pawpaw or Bepanthen cream;
- Because the ink particles are cleared through the lymphatic system it is important to stay healthy by drinking lots of water and exercising to assist in the elimination of the ink particles faster; and
- You can continue to exercise and follow your regular regime 2-3 days after your treatment.
AFTERCARE – USE STRATAMED:
We recommend using Stratamed products above all to use for your post treatment care. Stratamed is a breakthrough treatment that can be used on non-epithelialized wounds and compromised skin. Stratamed can be used for two weeks following treatment to prevent abnormal scarring and facilitate in the healing process. We stock Stratamed products which can be purchased for your home care pack.
How Does Laser Tattoo Removal Work?
Tattoos are large ink particles that are stored in the superficial layers of the skin. Tattoo ink remains in the skin because ink particles are too large for the immune system clear. Lasers use the principle(s) of selective thermolysis to target ink in the dermis causing it to shatter into smaller fragments. These smaller fragments can then be removed via the bodys natural immune response.
How Long Do I Have to Wait Between Sessions?
Each tattoo removal procedure should be performed every 6-8 weeks. This provides adequate timing for ink to be cleared by the body’s natural physiological processes and skin to heal.
Will My Skin Return to Normal?
Yes! Skin returns to normal in almost every patient. A lightening of the skin (hypo-pigmentation) may occur but is usually transient and will resolve itself in the following months after your treatments are complete.
Will my Tattoo be Completely Removed?
For most tattoos, Yes! We use the most advanced Q-switched laser technology available for multi-colour spectrum tattoo removal; almost every tattoo will be completely removed. In rare circumstances where poor quality inks were used, injected by unqualified tattoo artists using incapable machinery or multiple layers were applied, tattoo removal may prove difficult and may require other treatments.
Does Tattoo Removal Hurt?
A little bit – getting a tattoo removed may be uncomfortable for some. However, our Sydney Tattoo Removal experts make your treatment as comfortable as possible by using the Zimmer Cooling System. This state of the art technology cools air to temperatures below -30 degrees Celsius.We are able to cool your skin before, during, and after the laser energy is directed to the target site without interfering with the laser beam. Topical anaesthetic creams available at any pharmacy can be applied 30 minutes to an hour before your treatment to further assist with pain management. Laser energy is very powerful and hits the pigment at nanosecond time intervals. The fragmentation of the ink is comparable to grease splattering off a frying pan and hitting your skin.
