LASER TATTOO REMOVAL
Laser Tattoo Removal has the ability to break down the ink molecules in your tattoo into smaller pieces and a where your body will then flush it out of your system causing the ink to disappear.
LUX Series Tattoo Removal works by utilising a high-powered Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser known for their outstanding ability to remove a variety of tattoo inks. The light is aimed at the unwanted tattoo, and then applied to the skin in pulses. The process allows the tattoo to absorb the light, which in turn shatters the pigments into tiny fragments. The fragments are then removed by the body’s natural filtration system. The result leads to permanent fading of the tattoo, or removal of the tattoo all together.
