Tattoo removal are designed to be permanent and physically removing them can be damaging to the skin and lead to long-term scarring. Using laser technology, however, it is possible to remove tattoos over a series of treatment sessions. The energy from the laser breaks down the tattoo ink pigments into tiny fragments that are absorbed by the body and safely passed out of the system. This method is not available on the NHS and it is important to find a practitioner who has undergone training in medical cosmetic laser procedures.

Exploring Alternative Tattoo Removal Methods in London: Pros and Cons

Joney De Souza Skin and Laser Clinic is one of the few practitioners in london who uses PicoSure & PicoWay tattoo removal lasers, the most advanced and best tattoo removal machine on the market. It is capable of removing black, blue, red, and green pigments that were not able to be removed with older tattoo removal machines. This means that fewer treatments are required and your entire tattoo can be removed in 4-8 treatments*.

Before your treatment session, a cream will be applied to numb the area of skin to be treated and a handheld device is pressed against the skin to activate the laser. You will hear a high-pitched sound similar to an elastic band snapping against the skin and this sensation lasts for about 10 minutes.
