Safe Laser Tattoo Removal Sydney

Although a tattoo looks like a simple painting, it’s actually a series of ink deposits deep within the skin – designed to last forever. Early methods of laser tattoo removal carried a high risk of scarring, were painful and not very effective. The introduction of Q-Switched lasers greatly improved the process, allowing our physicians in our Sydney Clinic in Neutral Bay to eliminate most tattoos with a high degree of success and very low risk of scarring. The Q-Switched Nd:YAG lasers that use PhotoAcoustic energy are the gold standard lasers for tattoo removal, with a strong history of efficacy worldwide.

How does laser tattoo removal work?

Laser Tattoo Removal works by targeting the tattoo with a very specific wavelength of light energy – in fact, a separate wavelength is needed for each ink colour. The popular Q-Switched lasers use PhotoAcoustic energy to gently penetrate the skin and target tattoo ink. The light energy gently vibrates and shatters the tattoo ink into micro-particles that are eventually eliminated through the body’s natural processes. Because the laser tattoo removal treatment delivers the energy in a very precise ‘beam’, physicians can trace the design without damaging the surrounding skin.
Now there are advanced methods of laser tattoo removal utilizing lasers to first create micro ventilation holes on the skin first to allow gas particles from a traditional laser tattoo treatment to escape before using a Q-switch laser to shatter the ink pigment. Another advancement is the development of pico-second lasers with much higher peak power and shorter pulse duration (billionth of a second) to shatter ink to even smaller particles making the lymphatic removal from the skin much faster and more efficient.

1) Fotona Fractat Accelerated Tattoo removal treatment

Fotona Starwalker Laser has the revolutionary proprietary ™ tattoo treatment system, which allows for faster reduction in tattoos in combination with Multi-spike pico-second Q-switched Nd-YAG technology, with better results than the Q-switched Nd-YAG on its own.The innovative FracTat™ treatment creates micro-size holes in the skin over the tattoo area prior to the main laser procedure. This pre-treatment “priming” pass enables steam, gasses and ink particles to more easily escape through the skin during the subsequent full-beam Q-switched pass, thus avoiding the ‘frosting’ effect. This allows for a very short waiting time between multiple passes, which can reduce the typical number of treatment sessions by up to a half.

2) Revlite Q-Switch NdYag laser treatment:

This time tested gold standard Q-Switch NdYag nano second laser shatters tattoo ink into small particles which are subsequently removed by your body’s lymphatic processes. Nano-second lasers are best utilized for the first few sessions of laser tattoo removal as it shatters larger ink “Boulders” into smaller “stones”. Subsequent treatments with Fotona Fractat and it’s pico-second Q-Switch laser then efficiently shatters the “stones” into “sand” particles whereby your lymphatic processes will remove these quicker and more efficiently.
