Does it hurt?

The level of discomfort varies from person to person, however, most clients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin.

We can supply numbing cream to minimize discomfort during the treatment for a small cost.

How does laser tattoo removal work?

At Lineless, we use specialist lasers to remove your tattoos. The laser emits specific wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin, targeting the tattoo ink. The ink then breaks into tiny fragments and the immune system removes it naturally over time.

How long will my laser tattoo removal take to complete?

The number of sessions required to remove a tattoo depends on various factors such as the size, color, depth, and age of the tattoo. A professional tattoo typically takes between 6-10 sessions, while amateur tattoos can take about 4-6 sessions on average. Sessions are spaced 6-8 weeks apart to allow for the skin to heal properly.

What equipment do you use?

Our clinic uses a Titan 3 laser unit, which are the latest technology in tattoo removal. Our machines have adjustable wavelengths and pulse durations to target a wide range of tattoo colors and sizes.

What factors can affect the outcome of my tattoo removal?

Factors that can affect the outcome of tattoo removal include:

  • the age of the tattoo
  • the depth and type of ink
  • skin color and type
  • location of the tattoo.

It is important to follow aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible result.

I have a medical condition - will this prevent me getting tattoo removal?

There are certain medical conditions that may prevent you from having laser tattoo removal, such as:

  • lupus
  • diabetes
  • bleeding disorders
  • pacemaker
  • skin cancers

It is important to disclose your medical history during consultation to ensure the safety and effectiveness of treatment.

After removal, can I get another tattoo in the same area?

Yes, once the tattoo removal process is complete and the area has fully healed, it is possible to get a new tattoo over that area. However, it is important to consult with a professional tattoo artist who can assess the condition of your skin and provide guidance on the best approach for tattooing over previously treated skin.
