Tattoo Removal
Tattoo removal is a journey toward clearing your skin of ink that no longer reflects who you are. At ORI, we utilise laser technology to precisely target and shatter ink particles while preserving the health of the surrounding tissue.
HOW CAN I REMOVE IT?
Removing a tattoo requires a sophisticated process that breaks down ink particles embedded deep within the skin layers so your body can naturally eliminate them.
Picosecond Nd:YAG Lasers: These are the primary tools for tattoo removal. They deliver ultra-short pulses of energy, shattering the ink into tiny, dust-like particles. This method is highly precise, targeting the pigment while reducing the excess heat that may damage the surrounding healthy skin.
Targeted Topical Care: We use medical-grade topical applications to support the skin’s regeneration and maintain hydration throughout the removal journey. These formulas help soothe the treated area and ensure the skin remains healthy as the ink gradually fades.
FAQ
-
No, our lasers do not use heat to burn the ink; instead, they use ultra-short pulses of energy to create a mechanical vibration that shatters the ink into dust-like particles. This "cold" shattering process is much safer because it targets only the pigment, leaving the surrounding healthy skin intact.
-
Different ink pigments absorb different wavelengths of light. Our laser allows us to target a wide range of colors, but certain vibrant or deep pigments may require more passes to fully shatter into particles small enough for your body to clear.
-
Yes, but the health of the skin is the most important factor. Once the ink is cleared and the tissue is fully regenerated, the area can typically be tattooed again.
-
In some cases, the original tattoo process may have caused slight scarring or "hypopigmentation" that only becomes visible once the ink is removed.
We can use cellular repair treatments to improve the structural health of the skin, helping to even out the texture and tone as best as possible.
-
Once the laser shatters the ink into tiny particles, your body’s immune system recognises them as waste. Over the following weeks, your lymphatic system naturally carries these particles away, which is why your tattoo continues to fade long after your appointment.
-
While the laser breaks the ink, medical-grade topical care ensures the surface of your skin stays hydrated and resilient. Proper topical support prevents the skin from becoming overly dry or irritated, which allows the deeper layers to focus entirely on the healing and ink-elimination process.
