Erase unwanted tattoos safely and effectively at Skin Win Clinic. Using advanced Q-switched lasers (Nd:YAG, Alexandrite, Ruby), our expert dermatologists target ink particles to break them down, using your body’s own immune system to flush them away—without surgery or permanent scarring.
✅ How It Works
- Laser Energy: High-powered light beams shatter ink into tiny fragments absorbed by the body.
- Targeted Approach: Different wavelengths address specific ink colors—e.g., Nd:YAG (1064 nm) for dark inks, 532 nm for reds/yellows. Multicolor tattoos may need multiple lasers.
- Multiple Sessions: Expect 6–12 sessions (sometimes up to 20), spaced 6–12 weeks apart, depending on tattoo size, ink depth, and skin tone.
🌟 Benefits
- Non-surgical and effective in reducing tattoo visibility
- Clears with minimal downtime—light swelling and redness typically subside in a few days
- Black and dark blue inks respond best; lighter colors may require more sessions and may not fully disappear
⚠️ Risks & Cautions
- Common Side Effects: Redness, swelling, blisters, crusting, pinpoint bleeding—usually resolve in 1–2 weeks
- Pigment Changes: Temporary hypo- or hyperpigmentation, especially in darker skin—typically fade within months
- Scarring or texture changes: Rare when done by skilled professionals
- Paradoxical Darkening: Light or cosmetic pink ink may darken; test spots can minimize risk
🧘 What to Expect
- Consultation: Evaluate tattoo size, colors, skin tone, and medical history
- Pain Management: Numbing cream, cold air, or local anesthetic available—patients often describe sessions as a rubber-band snap
- Brief Sessions: Most tattoos treated in 10–30 minutes total
- Recovery: Clean and protect skin, use antibiotic ointments, avoid sun exposure and heat for 1–2 weeks
- Follow-Up: Repeat treatments every 6–12 weeks to allow the body time to clear ink particles
