Laser Tattoo Removal

About This Treatment

Our laser tattoo removal uses advanced Q-Switch technology to shatter tattoo ink particles into tiny fragments that your immune system naturally clears over time. The laser delivers ultra-short pulses of energy that target ink pigments while minimizing damage to surrounding skin tissue. Treatment plans are customized based on ink colors, tattoo age, depth, and skin type, with most tattoos requiring six to twelve sessions for significant fading or complete removal. Sessions are spaced six to eight weeks apart to allow your body to process and eliminate the ink fragments.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does laser tattoo removal work?
Laser tattoo removal uses advanced Q-Switch laser technology to deliver ultra-short pulses of high-intensity laser energy that shatter tattoo ink particles into tiny fragments. The laser energy passes harmlessly through the outer skin to target the ink pigments beneath, and your immune system then naturally flushes these laser-fragmented particles over the following weeks. Our Coquitlam, BC laser clinic uses Q-Switch Nd:YAG laser technology, which is the gold standard for safe and effective laser tattoo removal.
How many laser tattoo removal sessions will I need?
Most tattoos require six to twelve laser tattoo removal sessions for significant fading or complete removal, with sessions spaced six to eight weeks apart to allow your body to process the laser-shattered ink fragments. The number of laser sessions depends on the tattoo size, ink colors, ink depth, tattoo age, and your skin type. Older tattoos and black ink typically respond fastest to laser removal. Our Coquitlam laser specialists will assess your tattoo and provide a realistic laser treatment timeline during your consultation.
Can laser tattoo removal completely remove a tattoo?
In many cases, laser tattoo removal can achieve near-complete removal, though results depend on the tattoo ink colors, depth, and type. Black and dark blue inks respond best to Q-Switch laser energy, while lighter colors like yellow and green may require more laser sessions. Our Coquitlam, BC laser clinic achieves excellent laser removal results on most tattoos, and even partial laser fading can prepare the area for a successful cover-up tattoo.
Is laser tattoo removal painful?
Laser tattoo removal is often described as feeling like a rubber band snapping against the skin or like hot spatters of oil. The discomfort is brief and limited to the duration of each laser pulse. Our Coquitlam laser clinic offers numbing cream and cooling techniques to minimize discomfort during your laser tattoo removal session. Most clients find the laser treatment very manageable, especially knowing each session brings them closer to removing their unwanted tattoo.
How much does laser tattoo removal cost in Coquitlam, BC?
Laser tattoo removal pricing at our Coquitlam, BC laser clinic is based on the size of the tattoo and the estimated number of laser sessions required for your desired result. Small tattoos require less laser treatment time per session than larger pieces. We offer transparent laser pricing and discounted laser treatment packages for clients committing to a full course of removal.
