## What it is

Our Laser Tattoo Removal service uses the powerful PicoSure laser, a gold standard in the industry, to safely and effectively break down tattoo ink. The ultra-fast pulses shatter the ink into tiny particles, which are then naturally eliminated by your body.

## Benefits

Say goodbye to unwanted ink and hello to clear skin. The PicoSure laser is highly effective on a wide range of ink colours and requires fewer sessions compared to older technologies. It provides a safer and more precise treatment, leading to better results with minimal risk of scarring.

## Why LaserYou

We use the PicoSure laser, one of the most advanced tattoo removal systems available today. Our skilled practitioners have extensive experience, ensuring each treatment is tailored to your tattoo and skin type. We offer London-quality service and technology without the inflated prices, making top-tier tattoo removal accessible and affordable.

## Additional areas we treat

In addition to standard tattoo removal, we also remove eyebrow microblading, scalp micropigmentation, and lip tattoos using the same advanced PicoSure PRO technology. Please note: Lip tattoo removal requires an assessment before treatment to confirm if the area is appropriate for laser removal.

## Our process

- **Initial Consultation** — We assess your tattoo's size, colours, and depth. Our experts discuss your goals and create a personalised removal plan tailored to your specific skin type, ensuring optimal results with the fewest sessions possible. We'll also provide a transparent timeline.
- **PicoSure Treatment** — The PicoSure laser delivers ultra-short pulses that shatter ink particles into tiny fragments. Most sessions take 15-45 minutes depending on tattoo size, with our advanced technology ensuring precise and effective ink removal throughout the process.
- **Aftercare & Recovery** — We apply a protective dressing and provide detailed aftercare instructions to optimise healing. Minimal downtime means you can resume normal activities quickly, with most clients experiencing only mild temporary redness that fades within days.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does tattoo removal hurt?

Most clients describe the sensation as similar to getting a tattoo, but faster. We can apply numbing cream to minimise discomfort. The PicoSure laser is generally less painful than older Q-switched lasers due to its ultra-short pulse duration.

### How many sessions will I need?

Most tattoos require a minimum of 6-8 sessions, but this varies based on size, colour, and ink depth. Professional tattoos typically need more sessions than amateur ones. During your consultation, we'll provide a personalised treatment plan with a clear estimate.

### What makes PicoSure better than other lasers?

PicoSure uses ultra-short picosecond pulses (trillionths of a second) compared to older nanosecond lasers. This creates a photomechanical effect that shatters ink more effectively with less heat damage, resulting in fewer sessions, better clearance of stubborn colours, and minimal risk of scarring.

### Can all tattoo colours be removed?

Yes! PicoSure is effective on all tattoo colours, including stubborn colours like greens and blues that older lasers struggle with. It works on various ink types and all skin tones, making it the most versatile tattoo removal technology available.

### Will my tattoo be completely removed?

The PicoSure laser can achieve significant fading or complete removal in most cases. Results vary based on individual factors like tattoo age, ink type, depth, and your immune system's response. We'll discuss realistic expectations during your consultation.

### Is there any downtime?

Most clients return to normal activities immediately. The treated area may be red and swollen for a few days, similar to a mild sunburn. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and the best possible results.
