Our Tattoo removal device works by utilising a high-powered Q-Switched ND:YAG laser known for their outstanding ability to remove a variety of tattoo inks. The light is aimed at the unwanted tattoo, and then applied to the skin in pulses. This process allows the tattoo to absorb the light, which in turn shatters the pigments into tiny fragments.
The fragments are then removed by the body's natural filtration system. The result leads to permanent fading of the tattoo, or removal of the tattoo altogether. It is also important to note that the wavelengths of light used during treatment are specifically designed to be attracted only to the tattoo pigments, leaving surrounding healthy skin tissue untouched.

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 week 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 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 reduction methods such as topical anaesthetic, ice packs or a skin cooling system to help minimise the discomfort experienced when undergoing treatment.
