Laser tattoo removal is one of our core specialisms — not an add-on service
We have deep experience removing body tattoos, cosmetic pigment, and SMP — giving you confidence in both safety and results. Because we work across all three types of pigment removal, we understand how different inks, depths, and skin types respond in ways that a single-service clinic simply doesn't.
Every client receives a free consultation and patch test before treatment begins. We explain what's realistically achievable — including honest guidance on coloured tattoos, which can behave very differently to black ink.
Ideal for targeting unwanted ink safely — suitable for body tattoos, cover-up lightening, and cosmetic pigments.
Cooling is used during treatment to reduce discomfort and protect the surrounding skin.
No exceptions — every client is fully assessed before treatment begins.
We only treat skin types we can safely and responsibly work with — your suitability is assessed at consultation.
We never overpromise — especially for coloured tattoos. You leave your consultation knowing exactly what to expect.
Body tattoos, cosmetic pigment, and SMP — all treated under one roof
Old, new, large, small, detailed, or shaded — we can lighten or remove with a customised plan. Lightening before a cover-up gives your artist a cleaner canvas and more design freedom.
Remove or lighten unwanted or oversaturated eyebrow tattoo pigment — whether before new PMU work or for full removal.
We apply SMP and we remove it. Laser is ideal for softening, correcting, or fully removing scalp micropigmentation — in targeted areas or across the full scalp.
A straightforward, transparent process from consultation to treatment
All clients must have a consultation and patch test first. This confirms your skin's suitability and lets us plan your treatment accurately.
Most sessions take between a few seconds and 10 minutes depending on tattoo size. Treatments are quick — the waiting between sessions is the longest part.
Cooling is used throughout to help manage discomfort and protect the surrounding skin during treatment.
Your tattoo fades over a series of sessions. Results vary depending on the ink colour, depth, location, and how your immune system responds.

Experienced in tattoo, SMP, and cosmetic brow removal
Your treatments are carried out by an experienced practitioner specialising in tattoo, SMP, and cosmetic brow removal. We work across all three types of pigment removal — which means a deeper understanding of how different inks and skin types respond than a single-specialism clinic can offer.
You'll never feel rushed, pressured, or misinformed. We take your comfort and confidence seriously at every stage.
Lightening before a cover-up gives your artist a cleaner canvas and more creative freedom
Many tattoo artists across the North West recommend lightening sessions before beginning a cover-up. The difference in results — especially for dark, saturated, or detailed tattoos — is significant.
If your artist has advised fading first, we'll help you estimate the number of sessions needed before they're ready to begin work.
Cover-up lightening typically requires fewer sessions than full removal — often 2–4 depending on the original tattoo.
Why lightening helps:
Common questions answered honestly
Most tattoos need between 3–12 sessions, depending on ink colour, depth, age, location, and your skin type (Fitzpatrick 1–4). We'll give you an honest personalised estimate during your free consultation after assessing the tattoo.
You may feel a quick, warm, elastic-band snap sensation. Treatments are very fast and we provide cooling throughout to keep the process as comfortable as possible.
Certain colours will fade, but coloured pigment may require more sessions and may not fully disappear. Black ink responds quickest. We'll give you realistic expectations after assessing your tattoo — we never overpromise on coloured work.
We operate with skin safety at the forefront — using controlled settings, cooling, and correct spacing between sessions. Scarring is rare when treatment is carried out correctly and aftercare is followed. Your full aftercare instructions are provided at your appointment.
Yes — cover-up lightening is something we do regularly and is often recommended by tattoo artists before they begin new work. It usually requires fewer sessions than full removal. We'll estimate how many sessions your artist is likely to need us to complete.
We assess your tattoo, talk through expected results, explain how the laser works, answer all your questions, and carry out a patch test to confirm the treatment is suitable for your skin. No obligation to book.
Sessions are spaced 6–10 weeks apart so your immune system and skin have enough time to fully process and clear the fragmented pigment before the next treatment.
