The most effective way to get rid of an unwanted tattoo is laser therapy. Thanks to laser treatments, it is possible to completely remove an unsightly mark within a few sessions. At Beauty Skin clinics, tattoo removal prices start at 150 PLN.
How does laser tattoo removal work?
At Beauty Skin clinics, we use two devices for laser tattoo removal:
- Q-Switched – nanosecond laser, which emits ultrashort pulses with variable duration that reach deeper skin layers where they break down pigment particles. The 1064 nm light beam is strongly absorbed by dark inks (black, green, blue), while the 532 nm wavelength effectively removes lighter colors (red, yellow, orange).
- PicoClair – picosecond laser with the highest power, emitting wavelengths of 1064 nm, 532 nm, 585 nm, 650 nm. The light beam, similar to the Q-Switched laser, breaks down ink pigment into smaller particles, which are then eliminated from the body. PicoClair is effective for removing large tattoos quickly. The laser affects both dark and light pigments and is suitable for all skin types.
How much does laser tattoo removal cost?
Prices for Q-Switch laser removal start at $150. The cost for PicoClair tattoo removal begins at $400.
Tattoo removal costs depend not only on the type of procedure but also on the size of the tattoo and the pigments used. Skin phototype and individual predispositions are also important. Therefore, it is difficult to predict in advance how much laser tattoo removal will cost. Each tattoo is different, which is why prices are determined during a free consultation.
Removing a large tattoo – how many treatments are needed?
The number of treatments is also an individual matter. Removing a large tattoo requires fewer laser sessions than removing a minimalistic tattoo. The age of the tattoo (the older, the easier to remove) also plays a significant role. Additionally, the color of the ink and how deep it is implanted matter. Black, dark tattoos, especially on light skin, are easier to remove than colorful ones.
With the help of the Q-Switch laser, typically 6-8 treatments are enough for a large tattoo in the first case, while the second usually requires more sessions. Removing a colorful tattoo can be faster with the PicoClair laser. This device offers two additional applicators, CLEAR-Y, which removes light blue pigment, and CLEAR-R, which removes green and turquoise pigment, boosting treatment effectiveness.
What to know about laser tattoo removal?
Besides understanding how much laser tattoo removal costs, it’s also important to know the details of the procedure. Before choosing the right device, it’s necessary to exclude potential contraindications and perform a so-called “laser test”. These are essential elements of laser therapy, determining its safety.
Laser tattoo removal is not performed on pregnant women, diabetics, oncology patients, or those with vitiligo, active psoriasis, or infections involving inflammation. There are more contraindications, so before the procedure, ensure that nothing could hinder its safe execution.
It’s also important to know that after laser tattoo removal, the skin will require special protection from the sun and other potentially irritating factors. During laser therapy, microchannels form in the skin that must heal after the treatment. Using advanced lasers like PicoClair and Q-Switch minimizes side effects; however, after tattoo removal, the skin needs several weeks to recover. This makes the entire process take a certain time, which has its advantages, as it allows the cost of removal to be spread over several months.
