Tattoo Removal

LUX Series tattoo removal devices are advanced technologies suitable for treating most tattoo and skin types. During your consultation, your clinician will assess your unwanted tattoo and discuss with you the results you are likely to expect.

The results you can expect from your tattoo removal treatments will depend on the type of ink used in your tattoo, as well as the shade of ink. Darker colours generally respond better to tattoo removal treatment. Your clinician will assess your suitability for treatment, along with the results you can expect, during your consultation.

This all depends on the size, age, quality and colour of your unwanted tattoo. Some may need as little as six sessions to achieve a satisfying result, while others may require 12 or more to remove the tattoo completely.

Sessions are generally spaced at six weekly intervals, or more. This is because the tattoo removal process keeps working long after your session has finished. It takes time for your body to fully complete the natural process of clearing the treated tattoo inks, which is why after each session the skin is allowed time to heal and renew before moving onto the next stage of treatment.

The sensation felt during the tattoo removal treatment will vary from person to person. Factors to consider include the pain threshold of the individual being treated, as well as the size, quality, colour and location of the tattoo (for example, removing a foot or neck tattoo will generally be more uncomfortable than a back tattoo)

Your clinician may engage various pain reductions methods such as topical anaesthetic, ice packs or a skin cooling system to help minimise the discomfort experienced when undergoing treatment.
