Our Laser Tattoo Removal Treatment uses Fotona QX MAX laser, one of the highest performance, medical grade, single-pulse Q-Switched laser on the market, to remove tattoo in a fast and effective manner.
The QX Max laser removes unwanted tattoo with specialised light which is absorbed by the tattoo ink. The rapid absorption of the laser energy causes the tattoo ink to break into tiny particles, which is then removed by the body’s natural filtering system.
The number of treatments required depends on the volume, type (e.g. professional, amateur (homemade), traumatic and surgical tattoos), location of the tattoo, size of the tattoo, skin tone, age of the tattoo, colour and the depth of ink within the dermal layers of the skin.
At Fresh Skin Canvas our world class leading Medical Grade Fotona QX MAX laser system offers four wavelengths in one for effective tattoo removal in Melbourne. Each different wavelength is preferentially attracted to different tattoo colours. With four wavelengths to choose from, it maximises the chance of removal for all tattoo colours on all skin types, previously considered impossible. The 532nm wavelength is attracted to red, tan, purple and orange, whilst the 1064nm is attracted to black, brown, dark blue, grey and yellow. The 585nm is attracted to sky blue and our 650nm attracted to green.
The QX MAX transmits extremely short energy pulses that cause tattoo pigments to break into smaller particles that are then removed by the body’s own immune system and defence mechanisms.
Our Fotona QX MAX Q-Switched laser tattoo removal technology generates single nanosecond pulses, which are more efficient at removing pigment than other systems that use multiple-pulse technologies. Single pulses are not affected by the optical shielding phenomenon arising from pigment destruction.Consequently more and deeper lying structures can be reached and removed, and laser treatment efficacy and efficiency in a single session are significantly greater. This means we can treat you with much more power giving you a better quicker and safer result.
With Q-switched laser there is minimal heat energy transferred to the skin reducing the risk of damage to surrounding skin tissues, commonly known as Thermal Relaxation Time (TRT). Although Q-switched laser treatments require several sessions to successfully remove or fade a tattoo, they have the greatest chance of returning your skin to its previous state in comparison to the other methods of laser tattoo removal Melbourne.Q-switched lasers allow for complete removal of the tattoo, or just to fade it so the area can be tattooed over for those wanting to change or update their tattoos.
The Fotona QX MAX laser offers a revolutionary solution for safe and efficient laser tattoo removal. It is known as one of the most advanced and cutting-edge laser systems available in the market today.
The laser technology of the Fotona QX MAX is equipped with four different wavelengths that can accurately target various colors and shades of ink. This means that the treatment is highly effective for removing even the most stubborn and complex tattoos. It is also much faster than traditional laser tattoo removal methods, meaning that fewer treatments are required to achieve the desired results.
The Fotona QX MAX operates by firing precise laser pulses into the skin to break up the ink particles in the tattoo. The body’s natural immune system will then absorb and eliminate these ink particles over time. The laser’s precision also ensures that surrounding tissue is left unharmed, minimizing the risk of scarring or permanent damage to the skin.
The Fotona QX MAX laser is also FDA-approved, ensuring that it meets the highest safety and quality standards. It is suitable for all skin types and can effectively treat tattoos of various sizes and shapes.
This depends on an individual’s pain tolerance level. The sensation is often compared to being snapped with a rubber band.
To help with pain management, we will place a ice pack prior to treatment. During treatment, we will also use the state-of-the-art Zimmer Cryo Cooler on the treated area. This device blasts out freezing air to numbs the area and minimizes the pain sensation significantly.
Tattoo removal is a process that requires adequate time and effort to ensure that the skin is restored adequately. After the treatment, the tattoo may appear slightly raised and frosted (white) in appearance.
It typically takes about 1 to 2 weeks for the skin to heal completely after the removal process.
During this time, it is common for the skin to experience slight scabbing, inflammation, redness, and/or itching. An ice pack can be used to reduce the swelling, and the application of a moisturizer can help soothe the skin. It is advisable to avoid exposing the treated skin to sunlight and to wear loose clothing to prevent chafing or irritation.
Removing a tattoo is a multi-step process that requires several sessions.
Most tattoos typically require 3 to 8 sessions to be completely removed.
The number of sessions required to remove a tattoo can vary depending on several factors:
It’s important to keep in mind that tattoo removal is a gradual process, and the results are not immediate. The patience will pay off!
Laser Tattoo Removal does not typically cause scarring when performed well.
The laser energy targets the tattoo ink without damaging the surrounding skin, leaving a minimal chance of any scarring. The laser energy breaks up the ink particles into tiny fragments that the body can then absorb and eliminate naturally.
However, it is important to follow the proper aftercare procedures, such as avoiding sun exposure and keeping the treated area clean and dry, to minimise the chances of scarring.
