Laser Tattoo Removal

Erase Unwanted Ink Safely and Effectively

Overview

At SF Aesthetic Medspa, we offer advanced Tattoo Removal—the gold standard for safely and effectively eliminating unwanted tattoos. Whether you’re looking to completely remove a tattoo or lighten it for a cover-up, our state-of-the-art Q-Switch laser technology delivers superior results with minimal risk and downtime.

What is Laser Tattoo Removal?

The Q-Switch laser works by emitting short, high-energy pulses that target the ink particles in your skin without damaging the surrounding tissue. These rapid pulses break down the ink into tiny fragments, which are then naturally eliminated by your body over time.

This method is highly effective on a wide range of ink colors and is safe for various skin tones.

Benefits of Tattoo Removal

  • Removes Multi-Colored Tattoos: Effective on black, blue, red, green, and even stubborn colors like yellow and orange.
  • Minimal Risk of Scarring: The laser targets only the ink, preserving surrounding skin tissue.
  • Safe for Most Skin Types: Advanced technology allows for customized settings based on skin tone and tattoo depth.
  • Gradual Fading for Cover-Ups: Lighten tattoos for future redesigns or complete removal.
  • Non-Invasive: No incisions or surgical removal required.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

Tattoo removal is a gradual process and varies based on:

  • Tattoo Size & Location
  • Ink Colors & Density
  • Skin Type & Tone
  • Age of the Tattoo

Most patients require 6-12 sessions, spaced 6-8 weeks apart for optimal results. During your consultation, we will create a personalized treatment plan based on your tattoo and skin type.

What to Expect During the Procedure

  • Preparation: A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort.
  • Treatment: The laser delivers rapid pulses over the tattooed area. You may feel a sensation similar to a rubber band snap.
  • Duration: Sessions typically last 15-45 minutes depending on the tattoo size.

 

Post-Treatment and Recovery

  • Immediate Aftercare: Expect redness, swelling, and mild blistering, which typically subside within a few days.
  • Healing Time: The area will heal over 7-14 days, and ink particles will continue to break down in the weeks following treatment.
  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect the treated area to prevent pigmentation changes.
