Yes, many tattoos—especially those made with black or dark blue ink—can be completely or almost completely removed. However, tattoos made with lighter colors such as yellow, white, or green may be more resistant to treatment. The success of tattoo removal is influenced by factors such as the tattoo’s age, the depth and density of the ink, its anatomical location, and the individual’s skin phototype.

The laser pulses might feel a little uncomfortable, often described as a quick snap against your skin. The perceived level of discomfort can vary based on the tattoo’s location, size, and the individual’s pain threshold. At Skinaite Clinic, we employ cooling techniques and topical anesthetic creams to enhance patient comfort during the procedure.

 The majority of observed side effects are temporary and of mild intensity, including: Erythema (redness) and edema (swelling) Formation of scabs or superficial flaking Pruritus (itching) or tenderness Transient hyperpigmentation (darkening) or hypopigmentation (lightening) With appropriate post-treatment care, these effects typically resolve spontaneously within a few days to several weeks. Rarely, there may be longer-lasting pigmentation changes or mild skin texture changes.

 In many cases, yes—especially for tattoos with professional black ink. However, lighter or multi-colored tattoos, or those applied by non-professionals, may not completely disappear but can be faded significantly to become barely noticeable.

 Scarring is rare when laser tattoo removal is done by trained experts. However, if you scratch the area, expose it to sun, or don’t follow aftercare instructions, there’s a small chance of scarring. At Skinaite Clinic, we take every step to prevent this.

Some tattoos are very difficult to remove, including:

• Tattoos with white, yellow, or light green ink
  
• Cosmetic tattoos (eyebrows, lip liner) that contain titanium dioxide

Very old tattoos or those applied with unknown materials
Even in these cases, significant fading can usually be achieved.

Often, yes. With the right number of sessions and proper laser technology, many tattoos can fade to the point of being nearly invisible. However, the outcome depends on ink color, tattoo depth, and skin healing.

The success rate generally ranges between 85% to 100%. Black ink tattoos on lighter skin tend to respond best. Our advanced Q-switched laser and personalized approach ensure high effectiveness, especially when the treatment plan is followed properly.

Complete tattoo removal typically necessitates a series of 6 to 10 treatment sessions, spaced at intervals of approximately 4 to 8 weeks. The entire process may span several months to a year, contingent upon the tattoo’s characteristics and the individual’s physiological response.
