There are ways to remove an unwanted tattoo that are safe. We offer 2 options: Salt & Saline and Tattoo Removal. We have another section on Salt & Saline Removal.

​

Believe it or not, your body actually begins fading a tattoo immediately after getting it, which explains why fresh tattoos look so fresh. Our body's immune system immediately detects a tattoo as a foreign object and sends white blood cells to break down the ink. The body then begins filtering the ink absorbed by the white blood cells through the lymphatic system.​

​

When tattoo pigment in the dermis is hit by light from Q Switch lasers, the ink shatters into far smaller particles, which white blood cells can break down a lot faster and filter through the lymph nodes to then be excreted from your body.​​

​

The speed with which ink particles are filtered out of the body is different for every single client and is dependent on several factors:​

 - Where the tattoo is located on the body.

 - How deeply the ink was applied within the skin.

 - The type of ink used during the tattoo application.

 - How well your lymphatic system is working.

​

There are ways to boost your lymphatic system, including drinking plenty of water and getting regular exercise.

Black and grey tattoos can be removed relatively easily; however, some colours can be more stubborn to remove.​
