Laser tattoo removal uses advanced laser technology to break down tattoo ink particles beneath the skin. The body’s immune system then naturally flushes these particles away over time, gradually fading the tattoo.

We apply topical anesthetic (numbing cream) to the treated area, most clients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. The treatment is quick, and discomfort is temporary.

The number of sessions varies depending on the size, colour, depth, and age of the tattoo. Most tattoos require multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart to allow the skin to heal and the body to remove the broken ink particles

Black ink responds the best to laser removal. Some colours such as green, blue, and red may require additional sessions but can still be effectively treated with modern laser technology.

When performed correctly by a trained professional, laser tattoo removal has a very low risk of scarring. Following proper aftercare instructions is important to ensure optimal healing.

Most clients experience mild redness, swelling, or slight blistering for a few days after treatment. Full healing typically takes around one to two weeks.

A carbon facial is a deep cleansing laser treatment designed to exfoliate the skin, remove impurities, and improve overall skin tone and texture.

A layer of medical grade carbon is applied to the skin. The carbon absorbs oil, dirt, and dead skin cells. When the laser passes over the skin, it targets the carbon particles, removing impurities and stimulating collagen production.

Carbon facials can help improve acne, enlarged pores, oily skin, dull skin, uneven skin tone, and fine lines.

Carbon facials are generally painless. Most clients experience a mild warming sensation during the treatment.

There is little to no downtime. Your skin may appear slightly red immediately after the treatment, but this usually settles within a few hours.

A carbon facial typically takes around 30 to 45 minutes.

While you may notice results after one treatment, a series of treatments may be recommended for the best long term skin improvement

Yes, carbon facials are generally safe for most skin types. A consultation is always recommended before treatment.
