Tattoo Removal

Treatment Details

The Procedure

Our advanced Laser Tattoo Removal treatments safely and effectively fade or completely remove unwanted tattoos on all skin types. Using precision laser technology, we target pigment particles beneath the skin’s surface, breaking them down so the body can naturally eliminate them over time. Whether you’re looking for full removal or lightening before a cover-up, treatments are customized to your tattoo’s color, depth, and location.

The Benefits

Why Patients Love This Treatment:

  • Safely removes or fades tattoos with minimal risk of scarring
  • Effective on most ink colors and skin types
  • Gradual fading for natural-looking results
  • Quick sessions with little to no downtime
  • Precise, targeted treatment that preserves surrounding skin

The Results

Visible fading typically begins after the first few sessions, with continued improvement as treatments progress. Most clients require 6–10 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart, depending on the size, ink depth, and age of the tattoo. With consistent care, the skin gradually returns to its natural tone and texture.

The Process / What to Expect

  1. Consultation & Assessment – We will evaluate your tattoo, skin tone, and goals to design a customized treatment plan.
  2. Treatment Session – During the procedure, a focused laser delivers quick pulses of energy to shatter ink particles.
  3. Sensation – Most patients describe the feeling as a quick snapping sensation. A topical numbing can be applied for comfort.
  4. After Treatment – The area may appear slightly red or swollen, similar to a mild sunburn, and will begin to heal within a few days.
  5. Progressive Fading – The tattoo continues to lighten between sessions as your body’s lymphatic system clears the pigment fragments.

 

Each session typically takes 15–45 minutes, depending on tattoo size and complexity.

You may experience mild redness, swelling, or a “frosted” appearance immediately after treatment—these effects generally subside within a few hours to a few days. Most clients return to normal activities right away.

Treatment Time

Typically 15–45 minutes per session, depending on tattoo size, colour, and depth.

Pain Tolerance

Mild to moderate discomfort may occur. A topical numbing cream or cooling device is applied beforehand to enhance comfort.

DownTime

Expect mild redness, swelling, or light blistering for 1–3 days. Normal activities can usually resume the same day, with proper aftercare.

Results

Fading is often visible after 2–3 sessions, with continued improvement as pigment breaks down naturally.

Repeat Treatment

Sessions are performed every 6–8 weeks for best results, allowing your body time to flush out pigment between visits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your treatment

WeDoSkin Clinic Calgary
How does laser tattoo removal work?

Laser tattoo removal uses advanced laser energy to target and break down tattoo ink particles beneath the skin. Your body’s natural immune system then gradually clears these particles over time, fading the tattoo safely and effectively.

Is laser tattoo removal painful?

Most patients describe the sensation as a quick snap or mild sting similar to a rubber band on the skin. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimize discomfort and ensure a tolerable experience.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions varies depending on the size, colour, depth, and age of the tattoo. On average, most tattoos require 6 to 10 treatments spaced about 6–8 weeks apart for optimal fading.

Will laser tattoo removal leave a scar?

When performed by trained professionals using modern technology, laser tattoo removal typically does not cause scarring. Following proper aftercare guidelines—such as avoiding sun exposure and picking at treated skin—helps ensure smooth, even healing.

What should I expect after treatment?

You may experience mild redness, swelling, or light blistering for a few days. The area should be kept clean, dry, and protected from the sun. Over the following weeks, your tattoo will continue to fade as your body naturally eliminates the ink.
