Laser Tattoo Removal

Laser tattoo removal using Q-switched and picosecond laser technology to shatter tattoo ink particles into fragments the immune system can clear. Effective across black, dark, and coloured inks. Number of sessions varies by tattoo size, ink density, colours, age, and skin type. Minimal downtime between sessions spaced six to eight weeks apart.

Nitai Medical and Cosmetic Centre performs laser tattoo removal using advanced laser technology to safely clear unwanted professional, amateur, and cosmetic tattoos across a range of ink colours and skin types. The mechanism of laser tattoo removal is selective photothermolysis: the laser emits pulses of energy at wavelengths selectively absorbed by the tattoo ink pigment, causing rapid heating and fragmentation of ink particles into micro-fragments that the body's lymphatic system clears over the weeks following each session. Darker inks (black, dark blue, dark green) respond most effectively across the widest range of laser wavelengths, while coloured inks (red, orange, yellow, light blue) may require specific wavelength targeting or multi-device approaches for effective clearance. Nitai prices tattoo removal sessions on a size-based sliding scale from $50 to $800 per session, assessed by the area of the tattoo in square centimetres. The total number of sessions required depends on multiple variables: tattoo age (older tattoos with faded ink typically require fewer sessions than fresh professional work), ink type and density (professional tattoos with heavily packed ink require more sessions than amateur tattoos), skin tone (lighter skin types provide better laser-to-ink contrast, improving clearance efficiency), and whether the tattoo has been previously treated with another laser. Most patients require six to twelve sessions spaced six to eight weeks apart to allow the immune system to fully clear fragmented ink between treatments. Dr Singh's clinical team assesses the tattoo at the initial consultation to provide an accurate session estimate and pricing range. The clinic serves patients seeking tattoo removal across Sydney and Australia looking for a medically supervised, safe removal pathway.
