Does what once seemed like a good idea no longer fit your changing image?
Do you wish you could just make it go away?
We can make your wish come true!
In the not too distant past, the only ways to get rid of unwanted tattoos was through a surgeon or dermatologist. They would either remove the entire offensive area & graft skin from another part of the body, which invariably resulted in a lot of scars, or they would use a metal sanding disc to 'dermabrade' or sand your skin right down to the basal layers. These treatments were often quite painful after the fact & your skin never looked right again.
At Age Less MEDI Spa's we have searched internationally for the best, safest, most effective, advanced tattoo removal systems & unique methods, to effectively fade or remove your unwanted tattoos. Our customized laser tattoo removal technologies, here in Victoria BC, can combine state of the art Q-Switched Nd Yag Lasers, with a targeted cryogen system, &/or a mechanical method similar to tattoo implantation but without the discomfort, to significantly lighten or completely remove your tattoo over a series of sessions.
The effectiveness of your laser tattoo removal treatments with our Q-Switched Nd Yag tattoo removal laser will depend on several variables: which type of pigments were used - iron oxide, vegetable dye pigment, India ink or other? How deep it was implanted? If it was professionally implanted or applied by an amateur? How many colours & what colours were used? How old is the tattoo and where the tattoo is located
It is important to note that no facility or therapist can guarantee the complete removal of any tattoo.
In order to provide you with a customized solution for your laser tattoo removal here in Victoria BC, we offer you a selection of tattoo removal techniques. A personalized consultation is always required to ascertain the best ways to tackle any tattoo regrets. Patch tests may also be performed.
It is important to be aware that the effective removal of a tattoo requires a certain amount of time & monetary commitment, as they need to be performed every 4 – 8 weeks over a period of months for maximum results.
Our exclusive methods make laser tattoo removal in Victoria surprisingly comfortable & affordable.
Laser Tattoo Removal with a Q-Switched Nd Yag Laser
Laser tattoo removal works more quickly on darker pigments, such as black and dark blue, as the laser light is attracted to and absorbed faster by the deeper colours of the ink pigments. Other lighter or brighter coloured pigments usually require more treatments. A controlled blister usually ensues which stimulates the fibroblasts to pump up collagen production. Some of the pigment is released through the surface while some pigment fractures & is absorbed by the body for natural elimination.
On average 6 - 15+ sessions 4 - 8 weeks apart may be needed to achieve significant results. The actual number of treatments required for maximum improvement depend on the depth, and colour of your tattoo pigment as well as the type of pigment originally used. Most clients will see a visible reduction in their tattoos after the second session. The improvement can be quite dramatic. You will be the ultimate judge of when you're satisfied with your results.
Cryogenic Tattoo Removal
Cryogenic tattoo removal in Victoria BC utilizes a targeted probe that is effective on virtually any colour pigment because it is not influenced by the colours of your tattoo. It works by creating a temporary surface blister - stimulating the production of collagen, and causing surface skin to shed along with a layer of unwanted pigment. It is also a very successful method for removing badly placed permanent makeup, or permanent makeup which has changed into the wrong colour.
Mechanical Tattoo Removal
After the application of an effective numbing cream, a specialized digital machine is utilized to mechanically remove your tattoo. This specialized technique implants an inert, specifically formulated & proven product, into the area of the pigment. This anti-microbial product then binds to the coloured pigment (ink), encapsulating (causing a protective, hardened scab over the treated area) the unwanted pigment & drawing it out over a period of days (the scab turns progressively darker as the inks are absorbed). This method may cost more up front than others, and needs to be done in smaller incremental sections, however; it usually requires fewer sessions to get the maximum results, and as such can be a real time & money saver.
It is important to note that with any method of tattoo removal, some textural changes and discolourations can ensue. Proper aftercare is important and will be discussed in detail at your complimentary consultation.
