Erase Your Ink with Precision and Confidence

At Adorn Laser Clinic, we offer advanced Tattoo Removal using the Tribeam Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, one of the most effective and precise laser technologies available. Whether your tattoo has lost its meaning, you want to make space for a new design, or you’re simply ready to move on from your ink, Tribeam provides a safe and efficient way to fade and remove unwanted tattoos.

How Tattoo Removal Works

Our Tribeam laser uses high-intensity light to target tattoo pigments under the skin. These pigments absorb the laser energy, which breaks them down into smaller particles that are naturally cleared away by your body’s immune system over time.

• Targeting Ink of Various Colours: The Tribeam machine operates at different wavelengths, allowing it to target multiple ink colours. This capability is vital because tattoos often contain various pigments that require different wavelengths for effective removal.
• Black Ink: The most responsive to laser treatments due to its ability to absorb all wavelengths of light.
• Blue, Green, and Red Inks: Also effectively treated with the Tribeam’s dual wavelengths, targeting these colours with precision.
• Other Colours (e.g., Yellow, White): These colours may be more challenging to remove, as they are less responsive to the standard wavelengths. They may require more sessions or a specific adjustment to the treatment plan.

What to Expect During Tattoo Removal Sessions

• Session Length: Each tattoo removal session generally takes between 10 and 30 minutes, depending on the size and location of the tattoo. Larger tattoos or tattoos with multiple colours may require longer sessions or multiple visits.
• Pain and Sensation: The sensation during the procedure is often described as a snapping or stinging feeling, similar to the sensation of a rubber band snapping against the skin. While the process is not typically excruciating, numbing creams can be applied before treatment to enhance comfort.
• Number of Sessions: The number of sessions required depends on various factors, including the tattoo’s size, depth, colour, and age. Generally, clients require between 6 to 12 sessions spaced about 4 to 8 weeks apart for optimal results. Some tattoos may require fewer sessions, while others may take longer to completely fade. Results vary depending on the tattoo’s specific characteristics, but significant fading is often seen after just a few treatments.

What Happens After Each Session?

After each session, the tattoo will begin to fade as the body works to remove the broken-down pigment.

• Healing Time: There is minimal downtime, but you may experience some temporary redness, swelling, or scabbing, which typically resolves within a few days.
• Results Over Time: Full tattoo removal takes time. As the ink is gradually absorbed and removed by your body, you’ll see progressive lightening and fading. It’s important to follow your technician’s aftercare advice to support proper healing and to achieve the best results.

Benefits of Tribeam Tattoo Removal

• Precision and Effectiveness: The Tribeam’s dual wavelengths allow it to treat a wide spectrum of ink colours with greater accuracy and efficiency.
• Safe for All Skin Types: The technology is designed to work safely across various skin tones, offering highly effective results while minimizing risks of pigmentation or scarring.
• Non-Invasive: No needles or cutting involved. This laser procedure is non-surgical and doesn’t require any incisions, leaving you with minimal discomfort and downtime.
• Minimal Side Effects: Most clients experience temporary redness and mild swelling after treatment, but serious side effects are rare with proper care.

Aftercare for Tattoo Removal

Following your tattoo removal session, it’s essential to follow proper aftercare to ensure the best results and avoid complications:

1. Keep the Area Clean: Gently cleanse the treated area with mild soap and water. Pat it dry.
2. Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect the treated area from direct sunlight by using sunscreen (SPF 50+) for at least 2 weeks post-treatment to avoid pigmentation changes.
3. Don’t Pick or Scratch: Avoid picking at any scabs or blisters that form as this can interfere with healing and may cause scarring.
4. Moisturize: Apply a soothing ointment or moisturizer to the treated area to keep the skin hydrated.
5. Follow-up Sessions: Adhere to the recommended timeline for follow-up sessions. Space treatments 4–8 weeks apart to give your skin enough time to heal.
