Treatments

Two things, done carefully.

Every treatment starts with a consultation — the tattoo or the skin is assessed in person before anything is booked or priced.

Laser Tattoo Removal

Q-switched laser light is absorbed by the ink and shatters it into fragments small enough for the body to clear on its own. It is a gradual process worked through over a series of sessions rather than a single appointment.

Most ink colours can be treated here, not just black. Greens and blues are the ones that commonly stall on standard equipment — The Laser Co. works them with specialised dye handpieces, so colour that has been left half-finished elsewhere is worth bringing in.

How a tattoo will respond depends on its size, ink density, colours, age, placement and your skin. All of that is assessed at consultation, so you get a realistic picture of sessions and cost before you commit to anything.

Carbon Laser Facial

A skin treatment combining a specialised carbon lotion with laser technology to deeply cleanse the skin, gently exfoliate dead skin cells and help refine the appearance of pores.

The laser targets the carbon particles, helping to remove impurities, excess oil and surface debris while stimulating collagen production. The result is skin that looks fresher, smoother and more luminous, with improvements in skin texture, uneven skin tone and the appearance of enlarged pores.

With minimal downtime, it is a good option for anyone looking to refresh their skin and achieve a healthy, radiant glow.

Before you book

Questions worth asking.

How many sessions will I need?

There is no single answer, and anyone who gives you one before seeing the tattoo is guessing. Size, ink density, colours, how old the tattoo is, where it sits on the body and your own skin all change the course. You will get a realistic estimate at consultation, once the tattoo has been assessed in person.

Can you treat coloured ink?

Yes — most ink colours can be treated, not only black. Greens and blues are the ones that typically stall on standard equipment, and those are treated with specialised dye handpieces fitted to the Zenith Excelsior. How your particular ink will respond is assessed at consultation.

How far apart are sessions?

Your skin needs time to clear the fragmented ink between treatments, so sessions are spaced rather than run back to back. The spacing for your course is set at consultation and reviewed as the tattoo responds.

Do you remove cosmetic and facial tattoos?

Yes — eyebrow, half facial and full facial tattoo removal are all treated and priced separately on the list above. These areas are assessed carefully at consultation before any treatment is booked.

Is there downtime after a carbon laser facial?

Downtime is minimal, which is part of what makes it a practical option for refreshing the skin. What to expect afterwards, and how to look after your skin, is covered with you at the appointment.

Do I need a consultation first?

Yes. Every treatment starts with one. It is where the tattoo or the skin is assessed, suitability is confirmed, and you get the session count and cost before committing to anything.
