Tattoo Removal - Surgical

What is Tattoo Removal - Surgical?

Tattoo Removal - Surgical delivers short, high-intensity laser pulses to break tattoo ink or excess pigment on the treated area into particles your body clears over time. AesthatiQ clinics select Q-switched or picosecond platforms and settings based on ink colour, depth, and skin tone after clinician assessment. Clearance is gradual — each session lightens the target rather than removing it in one visit.

How does it work?

Tattoo Removal - Surgical is performed by trained clinicians using clinically validated protocols. The plan is customised to your goals, anatomy, and recovery preferences after a detailed assessment.

Is this right for you?

• Those with stable tattoo or pigment concerns on the treated area seeking gradual lightening

• People who can commit to multiple sessions spaced for safe healing

• Candidates willing to protect treated skin from sun during the course

• Generally suitable when pigment contrast and skin type allow predictable energy delivery

When will I see results?

Timelines vary by person. For Tattoo Removal - Surgical, visible change is typically expected around: Lightening often visible 4–6 weeks after each session as ink or pigment fragments clear.

1. Immediately

   White frosting or redness on the treated area is common and fades within hours

2. 1–3 days

   Mild swelling, pinpoint bleeding, or thin crust — keep area clean and covered

3. 2–4 weeks

   Treated pigment continues to break down beneath the surface

4. 6–8 weeks

   Next session window once healing is complete and fading is assessed
