Laser Treatment
At Dermapure Vancouver Kerrisdale, laser tattoo removal is offered as a non-invasive treatment that gradually fades the appearance of unwanted tattoos. This light-based technology is designed to break down pigment particles, which are naturally cleared by the body over time.

Taking a picture of the treated area before and after the treatment allows you to measure the progress of the treatment.
Desensitizing the skin with an anesthetic lidocaine-based gel or by using a cold air machine helps to reduce discomfort during treatment.
Carefully removing all traces of gel, make-up and lipid film is an essential step before a tattoo removal session. It is important to disinfect the skin with alcohol as well in order to create a suitable and sterile canvas before the procedure begins.
Wearing protective glasses may be required to protect the eyes during the tattoo removal procedure. However, it is normal to see a few flashes of light throughout the session. Once well protected, your eyes have nothing to worry about and are safe.
Applying the applicator to the skin of the target area and discharging the energy onto the surface to be treated signals the beginning of the treatment. Feeling the laser light on your skin can be unpleasant and it is common to feel pain during the session.
Treatment prices vary based on your individual needs and the specific procedure performed. To learn more about pricing, we invite you to contact your clinic or schedule a consultation with our experts.
The number of sessions required for laser tattoo removal varies according to the amount of pigment, its depth and the colors present. Thus, the treatment may generally require between 3 and 8 sessions, sometimes more. Each session is spaced 6-8 weeks apart. It is important to protect the treated area from sun exposure between each session and after the last treatment for a period of two months.
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid this type of treatment, as well as anyone who has received Accutane treatment in the past 6 months. Patients who have been exposed to the sun without sun protection within 4 weeks before the treatment date will not be able to receive it.
Most areas of the body can be treated with a tattoo removal treatment. However, some areas on which the area is more fragile or thin may not be able to receive this type of treatment, particularly permanent make-up on the eyelids.
