Laser Tattoo Removal for Wairarapa, Upper Hutt
and Wellington
What seemed like a good idea at the time can cause major problems later in life, including psychological distress. For others, it can result in difficulty in securing employment or going for a promotion.
The removal of a tattoo needn’t be complicated. Blossom Beauty makes the process as simple as possible, offering a free initial consultation where we’ll assess your suitability for the procedure and supply you with the cost and pricing packages.
How Laser Tattoo Removal Works
Our medical-grade laser machine works by producing short pulses of intense light that target the tattoo. These pulses pass straight through to the pigment, leaving the top layers of skin unharmed. When the light is absorbed, the ink molecules are broken down, allowing them to fragment into small particles and be absorbed into the bloodstream. The body then safely and naturally flushes these out of your system, causing the ink to disappear.
The procedure has been proven to be both safe and effective, with researchers having determined which wavelengths of light are most effective at removing ink without damaging surrounding skin. It removes both darker and lighter tattoos using different wave lengths.
Furthermore, our treatment is available at an affordable cost.
Does It Hurt?
The tattoo laser can be uncomfortable for some and has been described as being like a thin rubber band being snapped against the skin. It can also depend on the amount of ink in the area and the location. However, a topical numbing cream is applied prior to the treatment and I provide a relaxed environment where I ensure the best quality of care is provided.
What Can I Expect After The Treatment?
The Tattooed area that’s been treated will become white and raised immediately after treatment. This is expected and is a normal reaction; it will usually settle back to normal colour within about half an hour.
Pinpoint bleeding may happen, this will be cleansed off after treatment. The skin may also blister or become itchy. This is the skin responding and the cells working to break the pigment down… every skin type and tattoo will vary and present different responses.
How Many Treatments Do I Need?
The number of sessions varies with each individual and the age, depth, range of colours used in the tattoo. A 4-8 week interval between treatments is required to allow pigment residue to be absorbed by the body. In many cases the tattoo will continue to fade for up to two years after your last treatment.
If you are considering tattoo removal it is important to keep the treated area protected from the sun for at least four weeks prior to treatment.
