Laser Tattoo Removal

Everyone has regrets, and if one of yours is a tattoo, you can have peace of mind knowing that select Celebrity Ink studios offer laser tattoo removal. 

Laser tattoo removal uses specialised lasers to break down the pigment particles of a tattoo within the skin, allowing them to be absorbed into the bloodstream and flushed out by your body.

Unlike older methods of tattoo removal (painful dermabrasion and cryosurgery), laser tattoo removal is non-abrasive and doesn’t cause scarring.
The procedure happens over multiple sessions, and your body and skin must be healthy before starting each treatment. 

There are various things to do to prepare for your laser tattoo removal appointment, including avoiding sun exposure and applying SPF 50+ sunscreen daily two weeks before your session. We have a detailed pre and post-laser tattoo removal guide to help you get the best results.

Tattoo Cover-Ups

Reinvent your ink with a tattoo cover-up: Tattoo removal isn’t the only option to remove your tattoo. Why not cover it up with a new piece of art you can be proud of?

At Celebrity Ink, our talented technicians can use our advanced laser tattoo removal equipment to remove part or all of your tattoo to create a space for a new tattoo as a cover-up. 

Tattoo cover-ups aren’t the same as a new tattoo on a blank canvas, so it’s essential to collaborate with your tattoo artist to ensure it's exactly what you want. They will help you find the right shape, size and colour to ensure you’re satisfied with your new and improved tattoo.

Options for a Tattoo Cover-Up

However, not all tattoos can be easily covered up

Some of the reasons why a tattoo might be hard to cover up are below:

If you want to remove a tattoo that no longer suits your personality or cover an existing one, see what the talented artists at Celebrity Ink can do for you.

Colour and contrast
 If your original tattoo has vibrant colours or high contrast, it can be difficult to completely cover it with a new design, especially if it is lighter.
Size and placement
The size and placement of your original tattoo can limit the design options for a cover-up. For example, a big tattoo in a highly visible area might require more work to cover effectively
Ink saturation
If your original tattoo was heavily inked, the pigments may be deeply embedded in the skin, making it more difficult for a new design to mask the old one fully.
Skin tone
The natural colour of your skin can impact how well a tattoo can be covered. Lighter skin tones might require different approaches compared to darker skin tones.
Existing scarring
If the original tattoo caused scarring, it can affect the skin's texture, potentially making it harder to create a smooth, even surface for the new design.
Tattoo age
The newer the tattoo, the harder it is to cover up. This is because the ink will still be bright, making it harder to cover up compared to a 20-year-old tattoo that has had time to fade.
