Accepted Answer

You want to be totally happy with your new cover up & ensure none of the old one shows through, so it is recommended that you get rid of as much of the old tattoo as possible. Our Pico Laser is fast and effective at preparing your skin for a new cover up tattoo.  
Removing the tattoo or fading it will allow more flexibility and creativity with the new tattoo and your desired artwork.

Question 5

Is tattoo removal painful?

Accepted Answer

Laser tattoo removal treatment can cause some pain and discomfort, however this can be managed by pre numbing the area or treating smaller areas rather that the whole area.  Using a Pico Laser minimises any pain and discomfort compared to other laser technologies on the market.

Question 6

Will I see instant results?

Accepted Answer

The body needs time to absorb and dissipate the ink particles, the fading process will be ongoing until about 6 weeks after treatment ends.

Question 7

How many treatments will I need?

Accepted Answer

Each person and each tattoo are different and the amount of sessions will be determined by the size and colours of your tattoo.  Our practitioners are very knowledgeable and may be able to give some estimation based on previous experience at the consultation.

Question 8

How is a Picosecond technology laser different from a Q-Switched laser?

Accepted Answer

Picosecond Lasers are around 10 times faster than Q-Switched lasers. The pulses are so fast that the pigment smashing effect is more efficient and the heat generated in the skin is so much less. It means the number of treatments can be reduced and the time bwtween sessions can be less. Q-Switched lasers reduce the pulse duration to nanoseconds. Picosecond technology goes further by reducing it to sub-nanoseconds.
